I fell head over heelz for Puglia, the fabulous heel of Italy’s boot!
It’s hard to believe that I will be returning for tour #9 (and trip #10!) in fall 2020! Each time I return I fall in love with Puglia all over again! Thanks to my amazing Puglia experts and now dear friends, Ylenia and Michele of YLTour DMC, my groups and I have experienced the authentic local lifestyle and…
I can honestly say that we loved every minute of it!
Over the years I have been writing and sharing a lot about how I found la dolce vita in this very special and fantastic region of Italy.
Staying in and near Lecce we experienced and immersed ourselves in the Salento lifestyle.
I was (finally!) able to visit all of the places I had read and written about…Lecce, Otranto, Ostuni, Alberobello and the Itria Valley, Gallipoli, Martina Franca, Polignano a Mare, Galatina, Ostuni and sooo much more…
…Meeting the people – the wonderful, warm people; enjoying (and even cooking) the fantastic cuisine, savoring the scrumptious wines, delighting in the historical sights and breathtaking scenery…
Well, I just have to go back… and you can come, too!
I hope you’ll be inspired to join me, as I revisit in 2019… and fall head over heelz all over again! Maybe you’ll fall with me??
