Wonderful Experience - We had a really fun time with Sara. Sara has a bubbly personality and is a very knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide. As there was only the two of us Sara was able to give us a one-on- one experience that allowed us time to ask many questions and to absorb what we were being told. We learnt so much about the history, people and architecture of Lecce in the two hours we had with Sara. Would highly recommend Sara.
