Discover the timeless charm of Lecce, the beautiful “Florence of the South,” on a guided walking tour designed to give you an authentic experience of art, history and local flavours.

Your journey begins in the heart of the historic old town, an evocative maze of alleyways and squares where every corner tells the storey of centuries gone by. Accompanied by an expert guide, you will stroll among elegant Baroque palaces and richly decorated churches built from the typical Lecce stone, famous for its luminosity and workability.

You will be enchanted by the majesty of Piazza del Duomo, one of the most spectacular examples of an enclosed square in Italy, and by the extraordinary façade of the Basilica di Santa Croce, the undisputed symbol of Lecce Baroque, rich in sculpted details and unique decorations. Along the route, you will also discover the city's ancient Roman roots, visiting the imposing Roman Amphitheatre and the evocative Roman Theatre, both of which bear witness to a thousand-year-old past.

The tour continues towards Piazza Sant'Oronzo, the beating heart of city life, where history and everyday life come together in a lively and welcoming atmosphere.

To round off this unforgettable experience, a delicious food tasting of typical local products awaits you: you can savour the famous pasticciotto of Lecce, a symbol of Salento's pastry-making tradition, along with other specialities such as savoury rustici and artisanal products, accompanied by a good local wine.

This tour is the perfect opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the soul of Lecce, among artistic masterpieces, fascinating stories and authentic flavours. Ideal for first-time visitors or for those who want to discover the city with fresh eyes, letting themselves be guided on an engaging and exciting experience.
