Things To Do
Tenuta di Valgiano
Winery less than a mile from the villa. They also produce olive oil and honey on-site. Great souvenirs to remember the trip!
Lucca city center
Lucca City Center is a magical place in Tuscany. It's a medieval-walled city that doesn't allow cars, so it's especially enjoyable to walk the narrow streets. We highly recommend Caffè Biscotteria Santa Zita for an afternoon espresso or cocktail. They provide an incredible spread of finger food for free! It's also nice to walk or rent a bike and ride on the medieval walls.
Guinigi Tower
Go to the top to see a view of Lucca
Osteria da Pasqualino Gubitosa
Located on the Via del Moro in the heart of the old town, this unassuming establishment benefits from fantastic hosts and high-quality dishes. The restaurant specializes in seafood but also offers some wonderful Italian dishes such as ravioli and other pastas.
Buca di Sant'Antonio
The oldest and most famous restaurant in Lucca. Great selection of roasted meats. Located right in the center of town, near San Michele.
Gelateria Veneta
Best gelato ever.
Pizzeria Sbragia
Incredible family-owned, wood fired pizza.
