Explore the pedestrian-only Old Town in Lucca as the sun begins to set and enjoy a classic Tuscan dinner at a nearby winery. The Romans founded Lucca in 180 B.C. and while little remains from that time, the city’s Renaissance walls are completely intact. While following a guide through the cobbled streets, you will pass the Church of San Michele in Foro, which was constructed in the 12th century on the site of the Roman forum and the soaring Guinigi Tower from the 14th century. While pausing outside the church of San Frediano, be sure to notice the 13th-century mosaic on its façade. Following free time for shopping, you will travel to Fattoria Poggio Alloro, a family-owned farm and winery. Following a wine tasting in the cellar, you will settle in for an extraordinary dinner prepared with seasonal and organic products from the farm. The setting will be absolutely radiant as night will have fallen.
