Lucca
We can say that Lucca was our favorite destination during our trip through Tuscany. Lucca is a very beautiful typical Tuscan town northwest of Florence. It has everything you expect from a Tuscan dream destination. Delicious food, nice stores, cozy squares, and historic architecture.

Especially in the evening, Lucca really comes alive. The setting sun and the cozy lights hanging everywhere enhance the romantic atmosphere that is so characteristic of this Tuscan city. Lucca is an excellent starting point for various cycling routes through Tuscany. There are plenty of pleasant hotels and Bed & Breakfasts where you can stay.

And of course, tiramisu should not be missing from this list. Lucca is an excellent place to enjoy a delicious cup of Italian coffee on one of the many terraces. And of course, you can find an Italian ice cream parlor on almost every street corner.
Italian ice cream
Italy has been known for its ice cream for decades. Italian scoop ice cream has a unique taste and texture, comes in endless varieties and flavors. From sorbets to ice cream, and from hazelnut flavored to mango yogurt ice cream. It is unclear who exactly invented Italian ice cream. It seems that Bernardo Buontalenti made Italian ice cream as we know it today famous by serving it at the wedding of a French prince in the 16th century. Bernardo lived in the Tuscan city of Florence, so it is no surprise that many say the best and most delicious ice cream in Italy is found in Tuscany.
Italy & coffee
As the inventor of the espresso, macchiato and of course the cappuccino, Italy, in addition to its ice cream, is also very well known for its coffee. Drinking coffee is an important part of Italian culture. In addition to drinking a lot of coffee during the day, coffee is a regular part of both the morning and evening rituals of many Italians.
