Excellent full day outing - We enjoyed a fantastic full day outing with Stefano, covering many sites around the Salento coast. Highlights included the Torre Sant’Andrea, Otranto, and a delicious lunch at a quiet little restaurant. Coffees and gelato stops along the way, and cold drinks provided, added to a memorable day. Highly recommended.
