Highlights

Discover the most iconic locations of Salento in a single day, without worrying about travel. You will travel in a small group of a maximum of 8 participants. The departure is from the historic center of Lecce, in front of the Basilica of Santa Croce, with the possibility of agreeing on an alternative meeting point in the city. You will have free time to explore each location at your own pace: about 1 hour and 30 minutes in Otranto and Gallipoli and about 30 minutes in Castro and Santa Maria di Leuca. The order of the stops and the duration of the breaks may vary depending on the weather and traffic, while keeping all the planned locations. Can add a boat tour to the caves of Santa Maria di Leuca with a supplement, subject to availability and favorable sea conditions. In this case, the stop times will be adapted to the experience.

About Lecce

Lecce is a Baroque city in Italy's heel, built in honey-coloured limestone and carved with flowers, animals and saints on every façade.

Lecce's soft local limestone could be carved like wood, and the architects of the seventeenth century used it to cover churches and palaces in garlands, cherubs, animals and plants, a style called Leccese Baroque. The Basilica of Santa Croce has the richest façade, and the Piazza del Duomo is a closed square with a campanile. A Roman amphitheatre lies half uncovered in Piazza Sant'Oronzo, and the city is sometimes called the Florence of the South.

Top-ranked sights in Lecce: Lecce Basilica of Santa Croce (Basilica Di Santa Croce), Lecce Roman Amphitheatre (Anfiteatro Romano di Lecce), Porta Napoli.
