The Enchanting Old Town

First things first, we've got to talk about Martina Franca's stunning old town. Trust me, you'll feel like you've stepped into a fairytale as soon as you set foot in this maze of narrow, winding streets. Our expert guides will lead you through the labyrinth, pointing out hidden treasures along the way. Keep your eyes peeled for the ornate Baroque architecture that's practically everywhere – it's seriously impressive!

Palazzo Ducale: A Glimpse into Noble Life

Now, let's chat about the crown jewel of Martina Franca – the Palazzo Ducale. This 17th-century palace is an absolute must-see on our tour. As we wander through its grand halls, I'll let you in on a little secret: the frescoes in the Gallery of the Four Seasons are so lifelike, you might catch yourself reaching out to touch them (but please don't – we want to keep them pristine for future visitors!).

Basilica di San Martino: A Baroque Masterpiece

Next up on our Foxiepass adventure is the Basilica di San Martino. This church is a real showstopper, with its intricate Baroque façade and stunning interior. Fun fact: it took over 50 years to complete! As we explore, keep an eye out for the hidden symbols scattered throughout the church – our guides love sharing the stories behind them.

Piazza Roma: The Heart of the City

No visit to Martina Franca is complete without spending some time in Piazza Roma. This lively square is the perfect spot to soak up the local atmosphere. On our tour, we'll take a breather here, giving you a chance to people-watch and maybe even indulge in a gelato (because let's face it, when in Italy, right?).

Valle d'Itria: A Countryside Escape

If you're up for venturing beyond the town limits, our Foxiepass tours also include excursions to the breathtaking Valle d'Itria. Picture rolling hills dotted with olive groves and those iconic cone-shaped trulli houses. It's like something straight out of a postcard!
