Lecce Small-Group Food Tour Through the Baroque Old Town
Meet your excellent English-speaking guide near Charles V Castle and discover the city's history and flavours on a relaxed walking tour through the historic centre and the city's ancient baroque gates. Stroll among iconic landmarks, including Piazza del Duomo, the Basilica of Santa Croce, and Piazza Sant'Oronzo, as you learn about the local stories, traditions, and heritage that have shaped the city for centuries. Along the way, enjoy four authentic local specialties: Pizzo Salentino, a choice of sweet or spicy; Rustico Leccese, the iconic local puff pastry filled with béchamel sauce, tomato, and mozzarella; a traditional handmade Salento pasta prepared according to local recipes or a "relative"; and finish with a refreshing artisanal gelato. Your guide will also introduce you to the ingredients, culinary traditions, and local customs that make Salento cuisine one of the most distinctive in southern Italy, offering you an authentic taste of daily life in Lecce.

Where this sits in Puglia
Puglia is about 1 hr 4 min by road from Brindisi Salento Airport. The heel: whitewashed towns, trulli, olive groves and a coast on both sides. Slower and cheaper than the north, best in a car, and at its finest either side of high summer.
