You will look over the church and the square.
You will try the first traditional Lucca dish, the "Buccellato" in a local boutique pâtisserie. Typical sweet bread, Buccellato, is made from simple ingredients. It is a baked product with very ancient origins, originally with a circular and ring shape that has recently given way to oval versions that are more convenient to pack and transport.

Basilica Di San Frediano
Characteristic stop in the walled city where, you will try out the traditional Lucca pasta in a local restaurant, the "Tordelli".
A fun and tasty experience to get to know the city like a true local! Tordelli, Lucca's regional dish par excellence, a pasta stuffed with all kinds of goodies: meat, cheese, chard, mortadella and dressed with delicious meat sauce or with oil and cacio cheese. A unique speciality that you can only find in Lucca.

Piazza San Michele
You will also have the chance to eat a fresh dish of cold cuts.
You will enjoy a lovely glass of red wine in the square or inside an old-style tavern/bar. Tuscany is famous for its cold cuts and Lucca is certainly no exception. You will taste the best cold cuts in the area accompanied by a good glass of local wine.

Via Buia
Nearby we'll be able to try the local street food, the cecina, by a street shop vendor before trying some chocolate in a trusted bar. Cecina is a typical thin focaccia made with a mixture of chickpea flour, water, salt and olive oil. Soft on the inside and crispy on the outside, a must-have dish when visiting Tuscany! Afterwards, choose from a selection of chocolates exclusively made in Tuscany or a delicious ice cream. The best way to end the tour on a high note! Or try a refreshing Italian gelato! End the tour with a true italian espresso.
