4-Day Lucca Tuscany Experience – Italy

Today you will arrive at your agriturismo that is nestled in green hills decorated with vineyards, olive trees and old Italian villages. Your room is very comfortable with an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning, a beautiful wooden beamed ceiling and charming furniture. There’s nothing plannig for the rest of the day, so you can slip easily into Italian life with a glass of Chianti by the pool. There is also a restaurant on the property, so you can eat here in the evenings if you don’t feel like leaving the house.

After breakfast today you will explore the Tuscan landscape, heading first to Pisa or driving straight to Lucca. This small, completely walled town has streets lined with well-preserved buildings, duomos (cathedrals) and colourful piazzas. After an early lunch, you’ll drive to a nearby fattoria – an estate producing wine, olive oil and grappa, where you’ll taste different wines alongside local dishes that have been matched to perfection. The following day, you may opt for a day of lazing about at the agriturismo or you can visit Florence, where you wander past famous masterpieces in the Uffizi Museum, cross the Ponte Vecchio bridge and enjoy the wide palazzi and streets.

This morning your stay in your agriturismo comes to an end, but the fun doesn’t have to stop there – there is so much on your doorstep. You can choose to spend some more time in Florence, or if you want to enjoy rural life then you can travel to Umbria to make pasta, or to San Gimignano where you can take a Vespa tour through the golden Tuscan hills.
