5.00Sara was such a great guide! A font of knowledge, great sense of humour and significantly added to our holiday experience. She knew so much about both current and past history of Lecce and the Salente region and could not have been more enthusiastic about sharing this with us. We had a great tour. Would give 6 stars if I could !

5.00Sara was a fantastic local Lecce tour guide. Her knowledge of local architecture, archeology, customs, and history really made for a nice day walking and learning. The tour started promptly in a fascinating area with many layers of local interest revealed. Sara spoke clearly and was able to answer any questions we had. It was fun to walk with her she seems to know everyone and what makes the old town function. We learned about local food favourites, art, and daily life. She taught us about olive oil and it current and historical significance to the area. We were guided through cultural influences and how the location is important to Italy and the Mediterranean neighbourhood. Lecce is a city worth visiting and with Sara as a guide you will appreciate it even more. Our eyes were opened to look up a see detailed information hidden in plain sight. I highly recommend a guided tour of the ancient town and with Sara you will have the best tour.
Fun and informative

5.00Sara is a wonderful guide. She studied history and architecture and has lived in Lecce for many years. We learned a lot a in 2 hours we saw most of the inner city at a relaxed pace. Good English with much humor.

5.00Sara is a truly EXCEPTIONAL tour guide. Her English is excellent and she explains a lot of complicated history in very clear ways, whilst still conveying accurate information. She takes you to some of the key sites in Lecce, to help one understand its layers of history. She is trained as an archaeologist so she brings a particularly helpful perspective when seeing the Roman excavations in the town.She was friendly and thoughtful as a guide, always waiting for everyone in the group to assemble before explaining things, being sure we stood in the best spots for views, etc. Can’t recommend her enough!!
