Half-day tour with a certified English-speaking guide
Lecce, known as the “Florence of the South”, is the vibrant heart of Salento, a city where Baroque churches and historic palaces line the streets, framed by three ancient city gates: Porta Rudiae, Porta San Biagio, and Porta Napoli.
The tour includes visits to the Basilica of Santa Croce, Piazza Duomo, the exterior of Charles V’s Castle, the Roman Amphitheater, and Piazza Sant’Oronzo, offering a fascinating journey through the city’s rich history.
During the walk, there will be a stop at a renowned pastry shop in the historic center, where guests can relax at a reserved table and enjoy the pasticciotto leccese, the famous shortcrust pastry filled with custard, accompanied by a hot or cold beverage.
