We were the only ones in our tour. Our guide Vittorio was gracious and knowledgeable. We learned some history of Lucca and famous musicians who were born or performed in the city. She played clips of music as examples. It was a festival day in a local church so we got to experience that. Highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was terrific. She had a good mix of musical, archicitectural and political history of Lucca.

Lucia was a great guide with stories of music old and new. We saw interesting parts of the city too.
Our only suggestion is that aviator should put the length of the tour on its site as it was longer than expected and we sadly had to break off a little early.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. The highlight of the tour was the visit to Puccini’s house and the beautiful opera costumes

My friend and I did a tour with Paola. She was very friendly and informative. We had a great tour and I would recommend her to anyone coming into Lucca.

I really enjoyed the guide Lucia. Great knowledge and sense of humour. A lovely touch with the music playing as we strolled along.

Een onvergetelijke muziektoer waarin de gids veel fragmenten uit stukken van verschillende componisten liet horen. We hebben er heel erg van genoten!

Visita guidata con aneddoti e ascolto di brani musicali per la strada. Buon rapporto qualità prezzo.

Response from Host, Jun 2023
We are really sorry that you didn't partecipate the walking tour, and obviously if you want you will be refund for it, but the tour was regularly done with the other guests which took part to it, meeting the local guide who was waiting at the described meeting point by Garibaldi's monument in front of the theatre
