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.

Amazing tour ! - The tour was very educative and led by a professional, kind and passionate guide. I highly recommend the tour with Sara to learn the interesting history and culture of Lecce and Puglia in general. We also had some very good recommendations on local food to try out and places to go eat.

Wonderful - Sara is knowledgeable and full of energy. We really felt like we got our money’s worth as her tour was packed with information and she spent plenty of time telling us about the town. We didn’t feel rushed even though she covered lots of sites. We did the tour on the first day in Lecce which was good as it gave us a good intro to the city.

Absolutely outstanding. Cannot recommend enough! - Absolutely outstanding. Pitched perfectly at the crossroads of historical context and present day detail Sara’s tour was truly a pleasure and enormously valuable as an introduction not just to Lecce but to exploring the whole region. Plus her English is near perfect. Cannot recommend enough
