Your journey begins in the heart of the Historic Center, a charming maze of narrow streets and squares where every corner tells the story of centuries of history. Accompanied by an expert guide, you will stroll among elegant Baroque palaces and richly decorated churches, built from the characteristic Lecce stone, renowned for its luminosity and workability.

Along the way, you will also discover the city’s ancient Roman roots, visiting the imposing Roman Amphitheater and the evocative Roman Theater, vestiges of a thousand-year history.

The tour will continue towards Sant’Oronzo Square, 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 tasting of typical local products awaits you: you will have the opportunity to savor the famous pasticciotto of Lecce, a symbol of Salento's pastry tradition, along with other specialties such as savory rustici and artisanal products, accompanied by a fine local wine.
