A wonderful trip through the Cupa Valley, a fascinating area that includes several villages west of the Salento capital. This historically rich region was chosen by the Lecce nobility as a place to live or vacation, thanks to its unique charm. The countryside, with its farms and noble villas surrounded by greenery, has kept its charm for centuries. Visiting this area reveals an immense wealth of landscapes.
Among other things, you'll enjoy a culinary experience of typical local products at a historic estate in the village of Squinzano.
Our tour will then take you to another jewel of the Cupa Valley: the Abbey of Santa Maria di Cerrate, one of the most splendid examples of the Otranto Romanesque style, and a FAI heritage site for several years. A visit to the interior will be included.
After the unmissable visit to the abbey, you can resume your journey through the Salento countryside until you return to Lecce,
An experience rich in history, architecture, and breathtaking landscapes!
