Overview

Discover Lecce through its flavors on our city food tour, a journey through the charming streets of this beautiful Baroque town in the heart of Puglia. Taste the dishes locals love, from rich traditional recipes to the finest regional wines and olive oils. Every stop is carefully chosen to introduce you to authentic Salentine culinary traditions, showcase the best local eateries, and create an unforgettable food experience.

Your guide is a passionate local “Foodie,” a friendly expert who shares insider tips, explains each dish, and reveals the history and stories behind every bite.

Alongside, you'll indulge in Pasticciotto, a warm, crumbly pastry filled with velvety custard cream, or a Fruttone, its cocoa-infused cousin with a heart of almond paste and fruit preserves.
