    Martina Franca is a lovely town rich in art and culture, immersed in the Itria Valley.

    Meet the guide in Piazza XX Settembre next to the Cinema Theater Giuseppe Verdi.

    You will learn about the origins and history of the town, then we’ll visit the Ducal Palace, residence of the duke’s family of Martina Franca, which preserves impressive interiors completely frescoed (if open).

    Next stop will be the Basilica of San Martino, the main church re-built in a Late Baroque style, dedicated to the Patron Saint.

    Walking along the alleys we'll meet elegant noble palaces which made the Martina Baroque style famous, and you will know something about this local architecture.

    We’ll have look at some defensive towers, which were part of the previous city walls.

    N.B. The tour will be operated by Valeria or Mario licensed tour guides
