Wonderful tour - My mum and I went on Sara's tour with the other people, and it really was fantastic right from the offset. Sara was charming, offered fantastic insights on the history, culture and food of Lecce. She also recommended some great local restaurants. The tour was set at a very chilled pace, and Sara's knowledge was impeccable. Lecce is a beautiful city and Sara's tour helps to unlock the magic. We also stopped by the lesser known Roman theatre (as opposed to the amphitheatre), which for an adorer of Romans was a welcome stop! A must do tour!

Fun and Imformative Walking Tour of Lecce - I had such a great time on Sara's tour with my little dog Enzo! Sara is energetic and passionate about Lecce and makes the tour very interesting and personable. There were 4 other people on the tour and we all had a great experience. In the days following, as I walked around Lecce, I actually had some knowledge of what I was looking at! Sara also gave some very helpful recommendations for other important stops in Lecce. Super friendly and interesting! I definitely recommend this walking tour!

Terrific Guide - My husband and I got to spend a wonderful morning exploring Lecce with Sara. She is a wonderful guide. At the beginning of our tour, Sara set the stage for us by giving us a quick history of the region and the town. During the tour, she was able to relate what we were seeing to that history. Lecce is easily walkable. Sara has an expansive knowledge of the art and the host of this historic town. The history came alive during our walk. She also has a notebook with recreations of historical places. We had lots of questions about past and present day Lecce. Sara was very patient! She is a fun, relaxed guide. You will enjoy spending time with her. We did!

Brilliant 2 hour walking tour around Lecce - This was a relaxing, informative and very pleasing stroll around Lecce. Sara greeted us all personally by name and had fun exchanging the countries we were all from (as we were a small group). Following our introductions, she revealed lots about Lecce's details, buildings and history with many jokes and laughs on the way! Finally, Sara had recommended us lots of the locals' favourite snacks and pasta and closed our tour with warm goodbyes.
