What is Vinci? Where is Vinci?!

Vinci is the town that is the birthplace of the famous Leonardo da Vinci. That is how he got his name by which we know him today – Leonardo ‘from Vinci’.

 

How to go to Vinci?

Vinci is a very small town under an hour from Florence. However, like many towns in Tuscany, it is not easy to visit without a car. On this particular Tuscany tour you can visit Vinci as well as other important towns in the region, Lucca and Pisa without wasting time on public transport.

 

Where was Leonardo da Vinci Born?

Leonardo da Vinci was born in the town of Vinci, set amongst the rolling hills, in a little stone house. This house where he was born and raised which is now a museum that can be visited.

 

Leonardo da Vinci Museum

There are museums dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci’s genius throughout Italy. If you would like to visit the Leonardo Da Vinci museum in Vinci where he was born, please tell us in a note beforehand so we can adjust the tour timing. There is an extra ticket cost of 3-13 euros depending on the time of day and you can pay directly to the museum for this if you are not on the private tour.

 

Medieval & Renaissance Architecture

If there’s one thing all visitors to Pisa agree on, it’s that pictures don’t do the tower justice. Lucca, by comparison, is more off-the-beaten-path. But with its Medieval towers (some with trees on top!) and sprawling countryside, it’s worth a trip to see in person. It’s got all the rustic small-town charm that Tuscany is famous for and a beautiful oval-shaped piazza. 

Classic Tuscan Foods and Wine

Lucca is famous all over Tuscany for its rich cuisine and classic Tuscan recipes. Our Vinci, Pisa & Lucca tour stops for a lunch in a local trattoria or we stop in a fabulous hilltop winery with beautiful views, have a tasting of high quality Tuscan wines and a light lunch of delicious local specialties.  Chat and get to know your guide and fellow travelers over a delicious local lunch and regional wine.

Free time to explore Pisa and Lucca

We believe that vacations are for relaxing. That’s why we designed our tour to give you enough time to explore on your own. That way, you can experience Tuscany instead of just seeing it. Spend a morning and tour Pisa and you’ll be able to take that iconic shot with the tower. And in Lucca, we’ve given you lots of time to gift-shop. Go sightseeing, relax and have a gelato in a world-class gelateria. Relish a pick-me-up of any of Lucca’s rich cakes and pastries. Have a coffee in a historical Cafe.

Italian souvenirs

Lucca is perfect for Italian souvenirs. Italians call these small gifts pensierini (“little thoughts”). Beautiful, locally-produced traditional ceramics are a must. There’s a large variety of artisan studios to wander into in Lucca. Traditional cakes and biscuits also make great gifts. For salamis and cheeses, double-check customs regulations in your home country.

Leonardo Da Vinci

Leonardo Da Vinci, an incomparable genius contributed greatly to what we know about our world today. He’s famous for iconic paintings like the Mona Lisa, but Da Vinci was a true Renaissance man who was a master in everything from arts to engineering to mathematics. A man comparable to Albert Einstein, Da Vinci was way ahead of his time.
When seeing Leonardo’s birthplace we also get to see a very beautiful part of the world. We embark on a trip into the heart of the Tuscan countryside, with its gently rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards to see where Leonardo was born and raised, a typical simple peasant house of the time. Its old stone walls and traditional terracotta tiles.

  1. Karen Heyrend

    The tour to Pisa and Lucca was probably the best where I’ve ever taken! And our tour guide was the best tour guide on the planet! He took good care of us and gave us such excellent information about the location. Very knowledgeable. I was so impressed by him and the information that he knew culturally and historically. It was the best tour we could have taken to get familiar of the surrounding Tuscany area. It was so good in fact that I would recommend it to everyone and I would certainly recommend Number one tour guide and all of Italy.
