Experience recommended by SalentoBike
Lecce cathedral bell tower and the city underneath
A private 90-minute visit: cathedral, crypt, an old cistern and the bell tower by lift.
What you do
This visit takes you below and above the city. Below: the cathedral crypt and the cistern of the Antico Seminario, with exclusive access. Above: the cathedral bell tower, reached by a panoramic lift.
It's private, from 1 to 20 people, led by a licensed local guide, and entry to the cathedral and crypt is included. The guide isn't from SalentoBike. It's an experience recommended by SalentoBike that I book for you and add to your quote.
It takes an hour and a half and runs as a private visit only, across a wide daytime window all year.
By bike
An hour and a half in the centre fits neatly at either end of a cycling day. My tip: go up the bell tower before you set off, so you see Lecce from above before riding out of it.
Pick up your bike for free at Via Ribezzo 2D in Lecce and lock it during the visit with the lock included. Then head out on the self-guided route I prepare for you, with GPX and roadbook, and drop it back there at the end of the day.
