Overview of your Bari tour:

An amazing tour to discover Alberobello and Locorotondo (its name comes from the circular layout of its city center), the most iconic Valle d'Itria's villages perched atop rolling hills overlooking vineyards and olive groves and dotted with: - Trulli: a unique kind of corbelled dry-stone (without any mortar) conical roof dwellings that have survived quite intact and functioning into the modern world; - Cummerse: another type of local buildings characterized by a stone triangular roof. The topic of my final dissertation at the university was related to drystone architecture: I'll love to share my knowledge about that and my long-standing experience as tour guide, nature guide and sommelier with you. I'm sure you will love the fairytale atmosphere of Alberobello and Locorotondo.

Your Bari tour itinerary

- In Alberobello we will enjoy the two old districts (Aia Piccola and Monti) declared, in 1996, world heritage site by Unesco. - We will visit the interior of some of the 1500 trulli located in the village to learn about their history, legends, architecture, the mystery and symbolism of their pinnacles (finials). - In ten minutes driving, we will arrive in Locotorondo: a charming village listed as one of the most beautiful Italian hamlet and awarded, by the Italian Touring Club, with the Orange Flag (a recognition for the quality of tourism and the environment in small inland towns). - At the end of the tour, if you like, we can enjoy an informal wine tasting up on the terraces of a panoramic vineyard located on the slopes of Locorotondo with stunning view on the valley. We can personalize the tour as you like with some other sightseeing, culinary experiences (wine and food tastings, cooking class in a trullo, hiking, etc. )
