First-Timer City Tours in Otranto, Apulia

Otranto packs an unusual amount of history into a walkable old town: a Norman cathedral with a remarkable mosaic floor, a Aragonese castle on the waterfront, and lanes that lead straight down to a turquoise Adriatic harbour. For a first visit, a guided walk is the quickest way to make sense of it all, such as the Otranto: 1.5-Hour Guided Walking Tour of the Historic Center, which covers the core in a compact stretch. If you would rather go at your own pace with a guide to yourself, the Otranto Private Tour: Adriatic Gem of Apulia takes a longer, more personal look at the town.
