About Lucca
Lucca rewards travellers who like their history served with a glass in hand: Roman street plans, medieval towers and Renaissance walls, all within a city where food and wine are still made the old way. Pair a walk through the historic centre with a tasting at Honest Wines: Wine Tasting at Cantina Biagiotti, or spend an evening with Lucca: Puccini Opera Recitals in the Church of San Giovanni — music, architecture and Tuscan flavour in one sitting.

Frequently asked questions
Lucca's history is unusually intact and walkable: the Renaissance walls still ring the centre, the Roman street grid survives, and churches such as San Frediano and the Duomo sit minutes apart. Culture here is also edible and audible — wine tastings in family cantine and Puccini recitals in historic churches are part of the same story, not.
