Galatina - Galatina is a real gem of art, history and traditions. The wonderful Basilica of Saint Catherine of Alexandria is second only to the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi for the presence of many frescoes inside, which were created by Giotto’s disciples.
Other monuments to visit are the Cathedral of SS. Peter and Paul, and the ancient “courtyard houses” and the buildings situated in the historic centre.

Well organised, great guide - Stefano, our driver and guide was fantastic. He provided lots of interesting facts during the day. All 4 stops were well managed with a guided tour and free time. Clear instructions on the pick up point and great information on what to see. His lunch stop restaurant recommendations were great also. A well paced day. I highly recommend this tour.

Great way to see Salento - We loved this tour! Stefano was so knowledgeable about the history and area, he made it a fun day! My only comment would be to have more time & lunch at Otranto and just stop at Leuca for the view

Beautiful day - Lovely small group tour to places you might find it difficult to visit. Plenty of free time and no unwanted shop visits. Beautiful places to go. Stefano was lovely, very knowledgeable and a pleasure to spend the day with. One of the best tours I have been on.

Solid way to cover a lot of ground in Salento - Stefano is a reliable and punctual host who makes visiting four of Salento’s main cities in one day very easy, with hotel pickup and clear explanations in both Italian and English. The tour is well-structured and gives travelers plenty of time to explore each stop at their own pace. One area that could make the experience even better would be adding a short round of introductions at the start or encouraging a bit more interaction within the group, as this would help break the ice and make the ride between stops more engaging. Overall, it’s a convenient and enjoyable way to see a lot of Salento in a day.
