1.00I paid 280 Euros for a private tour scheduled for 10am (myself and my wife) Then I got a message asking to reschedule for 11am, to what I agreed When I showed up at 10:50 I was informed there are no guides available I was offered a group tour that was overcrowed and we could barely hear the guide
Surprising.

5.00We stayed in Lecce for 3 days, we did a walking tour, but on our own, with a map and references in hand, and we loved everything we saw. The so-called Florence of the South is beautiful, - what else to say, it is ITALY, and forever the BEAUTIFUL ITALY. We went, among other places, to the historic center - famous for its baroque architecture - and visited the Church of Oronzo, the Oronzo column, the Roman Amphitheater, the Roman Theatre, the impressive Basilica of Santa Crocce, the Piazza del Duomo and its buildings, the Castle of Charles V, and the Cathedral. In the evening we toured La Villa Comunale and its typical gazebo, then we had dinner - we loved it - orechiettis, the typical pasta of Puglia. From there it is worth going to Gallipoli because of its short distance, and getting to know it. Very good experience !.

4.00Excellent tour, the monuments visited are splendid, breathtaking, the guide was a little verbose, at the end of the tour he didn't collect the earphones and made us go back to the agency to return them, we didn't like it
Fantastic tour of Lecce!

3.00We all would have liked more about the history of Lecce and the buildings and less about the cafes and shopping stops.
The tour with Christian is particularly recommended.

5.00We had a very entertaining, competent tour of Lecce with Christian. He always had an answer to all questions, and the tour was livened up with little puzzles. We had a lot of fun. Thank you very much. The Schoeller family
