Lucca Tours

An acient Roman town and birthplace of the composer Giacomo Puccini, Lucca is one of the few towns in italy that still has its defensive fortifications intact.
Inside the walls lies a living museum of 14th-19th century terracotta roofed stoned houses, villas, secret gardens and courtyards, woven together by narrow traffic-free cobbled streets and impressive piazzas.
The most interesting of these squares is Piazza San Michele with its white limestone mediaeval church.

Viareggio is known for its characteristic Art Noveau buildings, its Carnival, its elegant seaside boardwalk, and its night life. Massarosa is an important historic town immersed in the woods.
