Informative & a great way to see some architecture (especially if you like aqueducts!)
Paul_M, Jul 2023
Excellent way to see the aqueduct and some of the countryside around Lucca. The cycling is not hard & is probably about 15km in total. All done on bike paths (except a very short stretch of road). Alessandro was an informative and a careful cycle tour leader. Overall an excellent tour.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Thank you Paul! The idea of this tour is to let people known the countryside of lucca, following the waters flow, the architecture of the aqueduct and discovering many little gems. Suitable for everyone, even those who don't cycle often!
Nice Afternoon Biking along the Acqueducts
Sherry L, Sep 2019
We had a very enjoyable day out in the country and away from the crowds in the city. Federica was a good and helpful leader who told us about the acqueducts and other things along the way. We stopped on the way down at a little cafe for beverages and a little snack. This trip is rated 'easy' but I wouldn't because we had to lug our bikes over a freeway overpass and some of the terrain was a little steep.
Lucca Bike Tour

Well, you get to ride next to a aqueduct but it's not Roman! Built around 1812 it's still kinda cool, but... For a causal bike rider it's OK (except for hauling yourself & maybe your bike up and down the stairs to go over a major highway). I wish there was more diversity in the ride. Our guide was very pleasant and accommodating as she hauled one of our group's bikes over that bridge both ways!
