Gabriele Calabrese, Fantastic guide!

The company I work with has been working with Turislucca and Gabriele for years. Our travelers constantly glow about his guiding skills, here is just some of the feedback we have received about him:

-Gabriel was excellent! He’s a master story teller who really wove a history of Lucca past and present, and I loved that he sang the opening bars of “O Mio Babbino Caro” at Puccini’s home. Great guy.

-Fantastic guide. Entertaining and engaging and obviously knew his village.

-Gabrielle was an incredible story teller and made the walking tour outstanding.

Thank you so much Gabriele, we look forward to another great year!

The hidden gems of Lucca

Did the tour with Roberta who presented the tour in Italian and English in a seamless manner. Her knowledge of Lucca is shared during the 2 plus hours and the hidden stories of the history are what makes this tour great. Both languages given good coverage and all questions answered.

I am talking about ideas on a smaller scale. Take the history, art, and culture of Lucca, combine them with secrets of the town and some anthropology, garnish with genuine Tuscan culinary art and flavor with lots of love and devotion. This is the recipe for Look at Lucca. I came up with this idea quite a long time ago and with my friends and colleagues at TurisLucca decided to offer the experience to visitors.

Look at Lucca: Why should you visit Lucca?

What makes Lucca one of the most beautiful towns in Tuscany? Why is it so charming and a must-see? Why should a day or more be spent in Lucca?

There are many wondrous things to see such as astounding hilltop villages and small towns dating back centuries. Nature abounds: there are rolling green hills, majestic mountains, a coast that alternates long and sandy beaches with rocky cliffs, natural hot springs, an archipelago of islands, protected natural areas and national parks. Even daily life has a particular rhythm. Lucca is in the northwest part...
