Gallipoli Full Day Private Tour: Coast, Beaches and Wineries

Set out from Lecce for a private full-day exploration of the stunning Salento west coast, where charming villages, vineyards, and the sparkling Ionian Sea await. This exclusive tour is designed for up to six people, offering a comfortable and flexible experience in an air-conditioned vehicle with a dedicated guide.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive through the peninsula, leading to the beautiful Rivabella beach. Here, you'll have time to swim in crystal-clear waters or relax on the sand, soaking up the Mediterranean sun. The route continues along the coast, passing historic fortifications and picturesque towns like Santa Caterina and Santa Maria al Bagno.

A highlight of your day is the opportunity to visit one of Salento's renowned wineries for an optional tasting experience, where you can sample local wines and traditional snacks. If the winery is closed or you prefer, you may instead explore Galatina's magnificent Basilica of Santa Caterina d'Alessandria, famous for its vibrant frescoes and Romanesque architecture.

The adventure continues in Gallipoli, known as the "Ionian pearl." Wander independently through its charming old town, discovering narrow alleys, artisan shops, baroque churches, and the impressive 16th-century bridge connecting the island to the mainland. You'll also have time to visit the historic center of Nardò, with its elegant squares and ancient basilica.
