Ionian Coast Trip from Lecce

We will pick you up at your hotel in Lecce, before heading to Nardò, the second-largest city in the Salento region. There, we will explore the historic center, where you will encounter the Cathedral and the Church of Saint Dominic. We will visit the Castle of Acquaviva.

The next stop is the ruins of the Torre Uluzzo watchtower, dating back to 1575, where you will enjoy panoramic views of the coastline.

We will then visit the small coastal town of Santa Caterina, the fishing village of Santa Maria al Bagno, and the Four Columns medieval fort. You can stroll through the historic streets of these traditional communities.

The last stop is the coastal town of Gallipoli, known for its 14th-century city walls and Ancient Greek and Roman heritage. Here, you can relax on its beaches, visit the cathedral, and enter the castle to learn about the town's history.

We will finish the excursion in Lecce, where we will accompany you to your accommodation.
