Relaxing way to see the town.

Biking through historical Lecce

Published on Sep, 2024

The tour was informative, our tour guide even had visual aids to show us more detail. Her name is Flore. Ask for her she is wonderful. The refreshment stop was better than expected. We got to try local pastries and had a lovely local ice coffee

Cycling in town - Highly recommended!

Published on Sep, 2024

The 2 hours guided tour was a very nice and easy way to get around and visit the main sights in Lecce historical town - especially during hot weather. We started at 10 am and had a cafe leccese and a pasticchio. We were a group of 5, bikes were good, only cycling could have been more. Our guide Mattia did an excellent job - he gave a lot of interesting information about town and history and he was kind and very patient. Finding the office can be a bit tricky so have your phone or good map with you. Highly recommended!

Mattia was our guide in the rickshaw, he was very knowledgeable and passionate about Lecce and its history. His English was very good and we learnt a lot about the town. Stopping at a lovely ice cream shop halfway round the tour, which was included in the cost, was a nice addition to the tour. Highly recommend using Velo Service for tours in Lecce!
