Itinerary
1
Lucca
After a 1-hour drive from La Spezia, we'll arrive in Lucca.
The beautiful walled city of Lucca has something for everyone. Besides being very elegant (to rival Florence in its handsomeness), the town is full of chic boutiques, great restaurants, and awesome gelato. The massive fortification wall that still completely encircles the city is in perfect condition and has been transformed into a tranquil pedestrian greenspace, which makes Lucca idea for families and active adults. You can rent bikes and cruise the wall or simply stroll or sit in the shade of the big trees. There are also many architectural points of interest, such as Piazza dell'Amphiteatro (built on the site of a Roman stadium, the remains of which are still visible) and Palazzo Pfanner (a historic dwelling with a formal garden).
5 hours
2
Azienda Agricola Enzo Carmignani
If you choose the wine-tasting option, we'll take a pleasant, twenty-five-minute drive through the Tuscan countryside to arrive at Fattoria Carmignani, a small, family-run winery in the Montecarlo di Lucca wine region. After a brief tour of the property, you will sit down to enjoy an assortment of local products (cured meats, cheeses, etc) and a guided tasting of several of the estate's wines.
The cost of the optional wine tasting is NOT included in the rate. You’ll pay for that on the spot, if you opt for it (should be arranged in advance).
The drive back to port takes about an hour.
