Itinerary
Ostuni, a picturesque town to be experienced. Known as the "White City", Ostuni boasts a wonderful medieval village, rich with alleys and whitewashed houses, which recalls an oriental landscape. You will have free time to visit the old town centre, called "la terra" ("the land"), characterized by alleys, sloping stairs, courtyards and small squares, where whitewashed houses, craft shops and typical small shops appear.
Locorotondo nicknamed "the balcony on the Itria Valley" because of its spectacular valley view.
Visiting the beautiful Alberobello is like a journey in a timeless country. You will have free time at disposal to explore its characteristic historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is integrally made up of Trulli, particular white, pyramidal structures that make it unique in the world and represent one of the most extraordinary examples of Italian folk architecture. Particularly striking are the two districts: "Rione Monti" with its local handcrafts shops and "Aia Piccola", where the most ancient Trulli and little museums are situated.
The beautiful Polignano a Mare, birthplace to the famous Domenico Modugno. Polignano a Mare stands on a cliff falling sheer to the sea. You will have free time at disposal to explore the historic center and the remains of Roman rule. Among the latter, the bridge of the Via Traiana, still viable. Entering the historic center, through a maze of streets, alleys and squares animated by local shops and restaurants, you find yourself on three terraces overlooking the sea to enjoy a breathtaking view.

Excellent visit to 3 beautiful cities with a nice overview from Stefano and the ability to explore on our own! Small van - max group is 8 travelers which is much nicer than a bus!!
We spent a wonderful day with Stefano, a friendly local born and raised in Lecce. He is incredibly knowledgeable about Puglia, shared lots of interesting stories and insights throughout the day, and made us feel completely safe and comfortable during the drive. At every stop, he took the time to explain the place, give us some orientation, and share helpful tips to make the most of our visit. He was also very generous with recommendations and happy to answer any question about the region. A fantastic way to discover Puglia — highly recommended!

Stefano is a knowledgeable , accommodating, and friendly tour guide! He not only showed us these beautiful cities, but also shared history, with suggestions for photo op stops in Ostuni, for the best lunch in Alberobello, and for the best gelato and espresso in Polignaro a Mare.
