What is Travelers’ Choice?
Tripadvisor gives a Travelers’ Choice award to accommodations, attractions and restaurants that consistently earn great reviews from travelers and are ranked within the top 10% of properties on Tripadvisor.
Lecce is not only baroque, but also stories and legends that have been handed down for centuries. From the palaces of Freemasonry to the vicissitudes of medieval knights in search of the true cross, from a magical journey to the stories of tragic loves and demonic and angelic apparitions. A journey among saints and demons, among ancient Egyptian divinities and Madonnas that look out from the altars, for a path destined for those who want to see Lecce with new eyes. WelcomeLecce with its decades of experience and professionalism can make you live a different story, for a memory of Lecce and Salento difficult to forget.

    Excellent Cultural Experience
    The trip to Lecce was a culmination due to the competent and dedicated guide Elvino Politi. Interpreting history facts in the cultural and geo-political context of the time made the trip exeptional. The marvelous Baroc architecture of Lecce impressed us much more with the help of Elvino. Highly reccomended experience! Thank you,

    Among the best city tours I have ever done
    With his profound knowledge of the architecture and history of the city, as well as a good sense of humour, Elvino made us love Lecce. The route was well thought and explanations were thorough but never got too detailed. We always got the chance to ask our questions inbetween. Make sure you book this tour if you are in the area!

    Very good tourist guide
    We visited Lecce on a coach tour. The guide was very informative showing us all the points of interest. We finished up at the amphitheatre, which was very interesting from an historical point of view.

    Informative walking tour, super friendly guide
    My girlfriend and I booked this tour in very broken Italian from the tourist information desk just by the Duomo. After meeting at another information desk in Plaza S. Oronzo (there are four), our guide, Chiara took us on a wonderful walking tour of the old town of Lecce. We took in all the main sights there are to see in this beautiful city. As we are not seasoned historians (amateur or otherwise) it was refreshing to not be overrun with dates. Tour guides tend to have this inclination. Chiara, thankfully, did not. Instead, she took us on a tour by means of some of the people of Lecce, interspersing it with the odd bit of art history, politics and religion. She was also very happy to answer our questions, no matter how repetitive or obvious they were. Suffice to say that we thoroughly enjoyed the tour, and would definitely not have had such a deep understanding of the city had we not had such a great English-speaking guide.

Esperienza unica, non è il classico tutor di Lecce, ma un vero e proprio "racconto camminato" dell'intera storia della città, molto spesso percorriamo vie che nascondono molti segreti che sono sotto i nostri occhi, ma che purtroppo non riusciamo a vedere perché non abbiamo lo sguardo giusto, in quanto non esperti dell'evoluzione che ha caratterizzato questa città.
Guida turistica davvero coinvolgente, preparata e disponibile.
Realizzare questo percorso al tramonto rende tutto ancora più magico, super consigliato!

Vivere un romanzo in prima persona. Elvino è un grande narratore capace di giocare con eleganza con le parole e trasportarti in tempi lontanani. Nelle pieghe del racconto si legge tutta la cultura per nulla scontata e banale.
Consigliatissimo
