    10/10 experience

    Guide was great and super awesome 10/10 views were amazing and he even got pictures of me and my wife and sent them to us. He even took us to city central and told us about great restaurants to eat at after the ride was over.

    Lovely, friendly horse ride in the mountains

    Alessio and his team were super lovely and helpful. We had beginning riders to more advanced and they took care of everyone’s needs and were calm and encouraging. The ride was beautiful and shady with great views. The listing doesn’t specify a meeting time, but Alessio responded quickly and was flexible to our particular timing and needs. Totally recommend!

    Response from the operator: thank you so much, you were very nice and friendly!! see you next time!!!!

    Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lucca.

    How much does Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills cost?

    +

    Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lucca usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lucca is not rushed.

    Is Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lucca, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lucca can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lucca and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lucca within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lucca?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lucca experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Tuscan Wine Tour in Lucca by van, Lucca’s Ultimate Food Tour: Full Tuscan Meal by Do Eat Better, Lucca Bikes and Bites with food tastings for Small Groups or Private. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lucca?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lucca?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    +

    Does Horseback riding in the Tuscan hills include hotel pickup?
