Brindisi and Lecce - Roman and Barocco Half Day Tour

Margaret S.United States

We had a wonderful private tour with Carlo Marzano. We wanted a tour to include a visit to the Air Force base in Brindisi. Carlo created a tour which started with a visit at a Brindisi monument which had a great view of the harbor. We then headed to the former Air Force base where he took us around the base going down former roads etc & stopped at the abandoned guard station too. He didn't hesitate to take us where there were no restricted area signs. Carlo then too us to the town of San Vito de Normanni for a walking tour. It was a very cute little town. We proceeded to more sights in the town of Lecce and stopped at a winery coop on the way. He was very attentive to our needs and made sure we were OK with walking. He dropped us off whenever he thought it was too far. Carlo was very punctual and made sure we were back at the port in plenty of time. We would hire Carlo again.

We had a great tour of Lecce with Carlo. He has tremendous passion, knowledge and enthusiasm for his "hometown" as he lives between Brindisi and Lecce. He has lived in the area almost his whole life. If you only have time for one of the two towns, we recommend Lecce. The sights, sounds and environment are rooted in medieval times. The old city inside the walls are incredible and Carlo does an excellent job bringing it to life. HIs passion is authentic, and his easy-going personality makes and creates a truly memorable day.

Carlo was our guide for multiple regions in Puglia spanning several days. He would pick us up in whatever town we were using for base camp and take us out on daily excursions. Wherever we went he was very knowledgeable about the area, and we saw all of the highlights at each location. It was very impressive that Carlo knew so much about ALL of Puglia and it was great to have him with us for our entire time in the region. Carlo's flexibility and knowledge enabled us to change our pre-planned itinerary several times in order to make the most of our time. Unfortunately, we had a family emergency to deal with during our trip and Carlo was very gracious helping with changing travel arrangements and land transportation. If there was a TEN STAR rating to be given, Carlo would get an Eleven! THANKS CARLO!
