It is not summer time yet, but there are so many occasions to decide and plan a journey choosing Salento region. Appreciated for its beautiful coasts, white sand dunes, crystal-clear waters and wonderful sea beds, the Salentine peninsula is an unique land to be enjoyed during winter as well.

Planning a journey in this period of the year means to leave and discover winter landscapes and backgrounds completely different from summer ones. It means to know traditions, flavours and knowledge connected to an old culture; it means to enjoy the feast and joyfulness of the Salentine carnival with parades of floats and masks linked to old legends and traditions. It means as well to discover the glow of a land and its people in occasion of celebrations for patron saints; to taste winter cooking dishes; to enjoy winter landscapes of desert beaches and countryside; to find out the old slow rhythm of small villages.

It is the ideal moment to treat oneself to downtime dipped into the warm, cosy and genuine atmosphere of masseria and old fashion houses pampering yourself and making you pamper by the genuine hospitality of Salento people who can give you the better side of a wonderful and authentic land.
