    Bellissima città. La nostra guida, Diletta, è stata cortese, professionale, simpatica e super esaustiva. Un tour che ci ha consentito di conoscere Lecce e le sue caratteristiche principali, dandoci quindi la possibilità di comprendere meglio cio6che poi nel pomeriggio, girando per la città, abbiamo visto individualmente. Grazie Diletta!
