Top Lecce Archaeology Tours

The historic center of Lecce is one of the most interesting in Puglia. The particularity of its Baroque architecture derives from the ability of local artists and architects who, between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries, have done something unique thanks to the quality of the tender local stone. Our tour will be a journey through time, from the splendor of the Roman Empire to contemporary Lecce. An elegant and refined city where churches and ancient buildings alternate artisan workshops (especially papier-mache), shops and places where you can taste typical products.

You'll have the opportunity to get to know a local tour guide and to walk in his company listening to the history and characteristics of Lecce.

Independent travelers will enjoy this 3-stop tour in Puglia, which provides transportation from Lecce but allows you to explore on your own.
