A valuable tour
A great opportunity to learn about Lecce and get a feel for the old town. You can cover a lot in a short period of time and can ask for individual preferences eg wine tasting or experience local patisseries. Stefania was wonderful , kind and enjoyed the time with her .

Loved this experience!
What a great experience! Lisa and Fabio were awesome hosts and made us feel so welcome in their home. We met a really nice group of people and learned some great cooking techniques. We enjoyed some amazing appetizers and then worked at making and enjoying the pasta and dessert. Was definitely one of our highlights of our trip!

Great day on a boat
This is a relaxing "day" on a boat. You view many sea caves--the captain is SO good at maneuvering his craft into the many caves along the coast. You get to see caves on both the Adriatic and Ionian coasts and the trip lasts almost 3 hours, longer than other similar offerings from the same area. The launch site was a bit hard to find; we had to ask the competitors for directions--it is on pier I (letter "eye", not number one) with no support staff in a booth anywhere. The captain was kind enough to return to the pier to pick up a couple who got lost looking for the pier. He also provided a stop for swimming and a snack/drink. Lovely time. Highly recommend for a relaxing break from seeing sights or shopping. Great value for a boat ride when compared to other offerings. Note that no life jackets were offered or evident--noted also for other boats. There were 12 adults and 4 kids on our boat (including the captain). You park on the street (where there are blue lines) and pay at a box with a credit card (but we were told it was free in the off season from Oct 1 to March sometime). Give yourself at least 15 minutes to park and find the pier.

Great walking tour
Lorenzo was fantastic! Personable, informative and humorous, we were so glad we took this walking tour when we arrived in Lecce. It helped us to focus our time over the next couple of days and our understanding of this amazing place. Good group size too.

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 ❤️🇮🇹

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!

Great walk through history
We had a great experience with Max. I appreciated his ability to weave together a cohesive story about the history of the area. The visit to the Jewish quarter is something one might miss if just roaming the streets on your own. The last stop for a snack and wine taste was unexpected and a perfect way to end the walk!
