Pasta and Fun
Lisa and Fabio were amazing hosts, welcoming us into their lovely home, sharing their love of cooking and wine, as well as their expertise. This activity provided such a wonderful opportunity to experience Italy in ways that are not otherwise possible.
Lisa provided very clear pasta making instructions that even the two young boys who joined our group could follow and Fabio documented the process along with the fun we had. We were served multiple tasty appetizers and were introduced to a variety of wines that all of the adults enjoyed. For dinner, we tried a red sauce and one made with chickpeas, which were especially appreciated by the vegetarians, and dessert followed. While the meal was "simple" it was very flavor full and Mina sent us home with the recipes.

Wonderful Pasta making and wine sampling experience
What a wonderful experience! 🇮🇹🍝🍷
We had such a lovely time at this pasta-making class. It was so much more than just learning how to make pasta — it was a really relaxed, social and enjoyable experience from start to finish.
There were just 9 of us, which made it feel really personal and gave us the chance to chat, laugh and get to know each other while our pasta was being prepared and cooked for us in a delicious tomato sauce.
The wine tasting was the perfect addition too. We sampled red, rosé and white wines while enjoying the food and the company, and the whole evening had such a lovely, relaxed Italian feel.
The hosts were friendly, welcoming and made everyone feel at ease. It was one of those experiences where you can simply sit back, enjoy yourself and soak up the atmosphere.
A fantastic experience that we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Lecce Italy. We left with full stomachs, happy memories ❤️🇮🇹

Excellent Guided Toir
Stefania is so knowledgeable and explains everything so well. She shows you things you would have walked right by without noticing. She has a warm kindness to her and her love for Italy and Lecce shines through. We loved our tour and would recommend the private tour. She showed us good food and local coffee. Excellent t!

Incredible journey (through time)
Lorenzo was an amazing guide who was not only extremely knowledgeable but also humorous and considerate of the groups needs. He was patient when patience was needed and more direct when needed to help everyone get the best out of the experience. Highly recommend this tour as it shows you so much more than just wandering around. I had a great time and was blown away by what I learned.

Despite it being very...
Despite it being very stressful to find the location even using Google maps, Riccardo was a tremendous guide. He was personable, knowledgeable about the area, and a true lover of the region and the ecosystem. Someone on the trip lost a snorkeling tube near a cave; Riccardo swam out to retrieve it showing his concern, not for the equipment so much as for the potential damage to the environment. The story about the tuna that got away is for another time. He was a charming guide who made us forget about the scramble to get to the dock on time!

A memorable day discovering towns and cities in the Salento region with a friendly and extremely interesting guide
If you are in Lecce and you want to discover the local area then this trip is a must.
Stefano the driver was both friendly and informative. He went out of his way to pick us up close to our accommodation and ensured that drop off and pick up points were close to local attractions. This was greatly appreciated as the temperature was in the high 30’s.
The 4 towns we visited were very different and Stefano engaged us with his knowledge of the history of each and the local people. There were lots of photo opportunities and a chance to dip your toes into the soft sandy beaches. He even advised us where to eat and they did not disappoint. A truly memorable day. Thank you Stefano.

Great wine tasting and local snacks offered by local sommelier.
Excellent introduction to local wines by an experienced sommelier. Four wines were offered alongside local snacks. The wines were all of good quality and expertly described by the host. We would urge that you sample these offerings gs whilst in Lecce.

An unforgettable experience for all!
Francesca was amazing! She is obviously very experienced and knows what she is doing. She is also very patient. My friend injured herself and needed 3 stitches. Totally her own fault but Francesca and her daughter drove us to the hospital, served as interpreters and then insisted we come back and have lunch!! She and her 3 daughters spent extra time with us and made the experience a great one! I would definitely take another class with her—assuming she’s willing to take us on again!

Accommodated vegan, great pace and tour of Lecce
They accommodated me as a vegan! Antonella was a great tour guide and knowledgeable! Saw a different part of Lecce we didn’t even know about because it was not near our hotel. The pace was doable, and the food portion of the tour was awesome! They were able to accommodate me as a vegan, originally they said they could do 3/5 spots vegan, but I got something at every spot, including a Caffee leccese for a sweet spot. Worth the money!

Special day trip to Alberobello, Ostuni and Locorotondo
We had an amazing day trip to Alberobello, Ostuni, and Locorotondo! We were a family of three and were picked up near our hotel in Lecce. Francesco was our driver for the day, and with only two other couples on the tour, it almost felt like a private experience.
Our first stop was Alberobello, and it was absolutely stunning. Seeing the famous Trulli houses in person was even better than the postcards and photos online—they truly lived up to our expectations. I would highly recommend visiting!
After exploring Alberobello, we enjoyed brunch at a local restaurant away from the tourist hotspots. We had a delicious platter of cured meats and local cheeses, including burrata and mozzarella, and each of us had a drink included. The Aperol Spritz was excellent! The brunch was fantastic value for money, and the quality of the food was outstanding.
We then continued on to Locorotondo and Ostuni, both of which were beautiful towns to explore. Although all three destinations were lovely, Alberobello was definitely my favourite.
A special thank you to Lorenzo, our guide in Alberobello. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and more than happy to answer all of our questions, making the visit even more enjoyable.
Another special thank you to Francesco, our driver for the day. He was friendly, professional, and shared lots of interesting information about the places we visited, which really enhanced the experience.
I would highly recommend this trip to anyone staying in Lecce or Brindisi, especially if you don't have a car. It takes away all the stress of planning transport, navigating unfamiliar roads, and finding parking, allowing you to simply relax and enjoy these beautiful towns.

Great Tour!
The meeting place was easy to find and we began our tour with a yummy cocktail and dessert. Andre was a great guide, friendly and knew 5 languages so was able to speak both English and French for the group we had. Loved all of the sites he took us to and the different foods we tested. Ended the tour with a glass of wine and appetizers. I highly recommend this tour - relaxing and informative and fun!
