- AlisaTD0 contributionsAmazing tour!!! Highly recommendWe had an AMAZING time with our tour guide, Fabio. He was so knowledgeable about the area and told incredible stories about the history of Otranto. We learned so much and he made it SO fun. This is definitely a must for any visit to Otranto. The city has so much history and this tour is the perfect way to see everything and learn a ton. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Puglia!Written 3 September 2019

My parents and I had the pleasure of exploring Lecce with Fabio as our guide, and it was simply fantastic! Fabio's knowledge of the city's history was impressive, and his sense of humor kept us engaged throughout the tour. He made the experience both informative and enjoyable. If you're visiting Lecce, I highly recommend booking a tour with Fabio for an unforgettable experience! He also went above and beyond recommending places to eat and enjoy the local delicacies of Lecce!! Grazie mille, Fabio!

Our group of 7 people spent 2 weeks in Puglia, Campania and Basiicata in June, 2023. This review is long overdue, as I should have written it the minute I got back to the US. There aren't enough exemplary adjectives in existence to describe our wonderful trip and the FABULOUS Fabio. I don't even know where to begin to describe the personal touches he introduced into our trip, in addition to his experience and skill as a tour guide both within his hometown of Lecce and in the rest of the cities where we travelled, including Benevento, Matera, Alberobello, Ostuni, Locorotondo, and Polignano a Mare. We visited masserias, sat outside in an alley at an Irish pub (yes, they are wildly popular in Italy) and we treated to folk music that happened to include a musician who is Fabio's brother. He shared favorite places to eat (the sublime pizza at Il Pizzicotto that I'm still dreaming about) and unusual, offbeat places to visit (Plazzo Tamborino Cezzi and its charming owner). Obviously, I could go on and on. I'll conclude by saying these things: when one of our party became ill, he took charge and went to the hospital with her; as a surprise, he took a photo of our group and had a puzzle made of it because he heard us talking about liking puzzles; and on the last day, he served prosecco and shared a powerpoint he made for us, including jokes, funny pictures, misadventures, etc. Fabio is a STAR. And let me say, we are seasoned travellers in Italy, having been all over the country and very familiar with the customs and regional cusine. Book a tour with Fabio -- you will be pleased beyond your expectations.

Fabio was so knowledgeable and really gave a lot of historical and religious perspective to the important sites of Lecce. He added humor and enthusiasm to the tour that we felt engaged the entire time! His information also had some archeological tidbits that added another aspect of interest.
We, my mother, our friend and I, highly recommend Fabio for this tour!

Fabio was a wonderful and knowledgable guide who brought the history and splendour of Lecce alive. We had walked around the city the night before but revisiting it with Fabio made us feel that we were seeing it anew. Equipped with his deep archeological knowledge, Fabio answered all our questions and gave us a comprehensive understanding of the rich history of this beautiful city. He was also a great source of information for other places to visit in and around Lecce. Highly recommended!

This is an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate tour guide. We spent 4 hours with him. Told us a story about everything we saw. He is a walking encyclopedia. I would highly recommend him for the Puglia area.

Amazing guide, extremely knowledgeable and passionate. Beautiful tour around the most beautiful parts of the city, with a lot of additional info which makes you appreciate the city much more than you would by just walking by.

Buonasera, la ringrazio per la richiesta. Sono molto dispiaciuto perché leggo solo ora il suo messaggio. Evidentemente un disguido tecnico deve aver bloccato l'invio delle notifiche. Avrei soddisfatto con molto piacere la sua richiesta, spero ad ogni modo che abbia avuto la possibilità di visitare Lecce e di ammirarne il fascino. A presto!
