Giovanni and his team created a wonderful experience for my clients on retreat in Puglia. Learning to make pasta by hand and then being served the most delicious lunch was a highlight. More so the way Giovanni took care of us was so personal, we got an authentic Italian experience with a local Italian! He made us all feel very at home , this added value he especially for my American clients who were visiting Puglia for the first time. I will be hiring Green Italy Tours for future retreats knowing I can trust the level of care and connection on offer. An insiders experience of Puglia, what more to ask for!

We wanted to do this activity on 20/09. On that fateful day we received, 2 hours in advance of the start of this activity, an email that the activity was cancelled. We received no explanation to why. We tried to phone them multiple times but they didnt even bother to pick up their phone. Terrible costumer service.

The historic center of Lecce is one of the most interesting in Puglia. The particularity of its Baroque architecture derives from the ability of local artists and architects who, between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries, have done something unique thanks to the quality of the tender local stone. Our tour will be a journey through time, from the splendor of the Roman Empire to contemporary Lecce. An elegant and refined city where churches and ancient buildings alternate artisan workshops (especially papier-mache), shops and places where you can taste typical products.
Inclusions: Guided walking tour
Exclusions: Entrance tickets to churches

We 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!

We love to accompany our visitors and let them enjoy a 360° enogastronomic experience: the taste of our wine goes perfectly with products and typical specialties of Salento, because it is the son of the Salento land and its most genuine fruits.
