City information and what to do:

Starting from Villa Gru, there are many full day and half-day trips that you can organise. You can certainly reach the city centre of Lucca on foot (400m away), which is surrounded by its beautiful walls and has a special charm which you will hardly find elsewhere.
Lucca is a beautiful art city, rich of beautiful churches, palazzi, squares and stunning sights. Piazza San Michele, Piazza dell’Anfiteatro, San Martino Cathedral, Guinigi Tower and the shopping lane Via Fillungo are definitely worth a visit. You can also discover old workshops, trattorias and excellent restaurants in its picturesque alleys.
Many events take place in Lucca all year around and make it a perfect choice for your holidays: the Comics exhibition, the operas, classical concerts, the Summer Festival, the arts and craft market, the market of antiques which takes place every 3rd weekend of a month and much more.

From Lucca you can make one-day trips to the most important art cities of Tuscany such as Florence, Pisa and Siena, visit picturesque medieval towns nestled in the countryside like Montecarlo, go to the seaside in Versilia or to Livorno, Castiglioncello and le Cinque Terre or organize bike trips or treks, following the tour of the Ville Lucchesi, which are located about 6 km from the city.

Villa Gru is simply a fine residence, ideal for enjoying this corner of Tuscany, very comfortable inside and very convenient for its location.

The Best Theme Parks In Tuscany II

As we discussed in the last post, theme parks are probably not something that you associate with Tuscany and, admittedly, you won't find the likes of Disneyland or Universal Studios. However, Tuscany has her own unique theme parks, adventures parks and water parks that are great fun and something a little different; especially welcome to any kids (or childlike adults) in the group that might grow tired of museums and architectural gems. So, if you are planning on visiting Tuscany and are looking for a family activity that is a little off the beaten track, look no further than this list of some of her best theme parks!

Similar to Il Gigante Adventure Park in Florence, Lucca has its own adventure park to offer: Bagno di Lucca Canyon Park. If you've found your luxury villa in Lucca and are looking for a bit of an adventure, time outdoors and a little bit physical exertion mixed in with fun, then it's a perfect option.

One tends to have an image of Italian cathedrals in mind which is cultivated from scenes in movies, television shows and editorials. It presents a large piazza full of well-dressed youths, children dashing back and forth and traditional-looking elderly folks, all congregating in front of a towering church.

However, Lucca's Cathedral is actually located in a secluded location of the old city centre, tucked away from the main roads and well-trafficked areas.

San Martino Cathedral, located in a piazza of the same name, may be a little off the beaten track and away from the main tourist areas but once you have found a villa with pool in Lucca and are planning a visit to the town, it is a highlight that you won't want to miss.

One of the more frequent questions we hear is, “What are some activities for children in Tuscany?” So you have rented your self-catering villa or apartment and you have access to a pool to keep the little ones entertained for part of the time, but what do you DO all day?

Aside from the culture you hope they absorb touring the museums and ruins, here are few unique ways for kids, as well as parents, to experience Tuscany and its surroundings.

Pinocchio Park is only 15 km outside of Lucca
In the park, you will see the story of Pinocchio brought to life through art and sculpture. There are also other activities at the park such as puppet making workshops, a butterfly house and much more.

Giacomo Antonio Domenico Michele Secondo Maria Puccini was born on the 22nd of December 1858 and would go on to become an opera composer that would be labelled "the greatest composer of Italian opera after Verdi". Many of his works are very famous. In fact, among his ouevre are some of the best known operas of all time, amongst them are “La Bohème” (1896), “Tosca” (1900), and “Madama Butterfly” (1904). These are the operatic works that tour most often and have become standards of the genre of music.

Lucca is a beautiful city in Tuscany. Historic, well-preserved and pretty, there is lots to see and do and a wealth of culture and art. Merely wandering the lovely streets and soaking up the unique atmosphere is enough of an activity to please many. However, if you are having a wander, there is one particular area that we suggest you check out.

Nothing beats a good view, right? When you're on holidays, in particular, waking up to a beautiful reminder that you are far from home and regular routines and responsibilities is the perfect way to start every day with energy and excitement and to ensure a good time. We happen to have an incredible selection of vacation rentals in Italy with great views so why not check out our favourites here?
