Porta San Donato
The tour begins in Piazzale Verdi at the old Porta San Donato where the tourist information centre is located, adjacent to the historic Renaissance walls.
San Michele in Foro
From Piazzale Verdi, you will walk along Via San Paolino which corresponds to the ancient Roman street (Decumanus Maximus), passing by the Renaissance church dedicated to the Patron Saint of the town, San (Saint) Paolino. At the end of the street, behold Piazza San Michele, the area where the ancient Roman forum was located. Time to stop to photograph the spectacular facade of the 12th century church of the same name. Along the way, you will encounter Lucca's most famous celebrity, Giacomo Puccini, and see the exterior of the building where he was born. Still today, his operas fascinate audiences all around the world!

Tour guide was a no show. Tried communicating with company but no response. Lucca is a beautiful city and we explored ourselves.

The historic center of Lucca is very welcoming and walkable. If you want to see the famous city wall surrounding the old city center, rent a bike for 5 euros and spend an hour riding all the way around the level and beautiful walkway. The walking tour guide I had was very informative and pleasant, so it helped me appreciate Lucca better than if I just walked around on my own.

Lovely lady who showed us round Lucca. The only point was the meeting point it should say the Tourist Info centre rather than on a corner in the park.
