Join this tour to uncover the hidden treasures of Lecce, a city steeped in history, home to artistic and architectural gems. One of the city's best-kept secrets is its underground area, waiting to be explored.

The walking tour commences at the Basilica of Santa Croce, a shining example of Baroque Lecce. From there, you'll journey to the Palazzo del Sedile, the Roman column, and the amphitheatre in Piazza Sant'Oronzo. Walk past the 16th, 17th and 18th-century palaces that line Corso Vittorio Emanuele before arriving at Piazza Duomo. Here, you'll find monuments such as the Palazzo del Seminario, Episcopal Palace, Bell Tower and Lecce Cathedral - among the finest examples of Italian Baroque style.

Delve into the history of the city as you discover more about its past and its Jewish community.

Lecce è molto bella, le guide, oltre che preparate, ti conducono in un’esperienza anche enogastronomica. Da consigliare.

La guida educata, simpatica ed esauriente. Peccato non aver potuto visitare l'interno della Basilica di Santa Croce causa matrimonio ma questo bisogna prevederlo e formulare orari compatibili con l'ingresso magari anticipando.

The local guide was very expert and explanes and illustrates the most important place of Lecce. It was a good experience. Thanks
