An amazing tour of 4 Salento towns - We had an amazing guided tour of four Salento towns, thanks largely to our top tour guide Stefano! It was great to see all the towns in one day - it would have taken days to see them on our own, plus we would not have had Stefano's insightful commentary. He arrived promptly to meet us and started the tour with an introduction to Salento. We then stopped at each of the 4 towns where we learnt about their history and saw the main sights. For a 9 hour tour, it was important to have a safe driver and a good time manager in Stefano. We would highly recommend this tour.

A very pleasant experience - A very pleasant day, pack hotel transfer, small truck is also comfortable. The tour guide is very careful and interesting, knows English, along the way there is a careful introduction of the scenery and detailed explanation of the attractions, any questions will be happy to answer. Each stop stay is also sufficient, there is enough time to take photos, and there is lunch time. For those who do not plan on self-driving, walking around 4 small towns per day is a very good option, highly recommended.

Fabulous tour conducted by Stefano, an EXCELLENT tour guide. - Great tour. Picturesque scenery. Great driver Stefano was very knowledgeable of each area. He personalized it with his experience in touring which was an added plus. We’ll definitely want to reserve another event so long he’s our guide. We rate him a 10 out of 10.
