Your Itinerary

Ostuni

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.

Alberobello

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.

Polignano a Mare

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.

The tour is informative about the cities we visited and well paced. Stefano is friendly and will answer your questions. He gave us plenty of time to explore by ourselves. Every location is picture perfect! Bring your camera.

Good to cover three cities sufficiently in a day trip. The guide/driver was very helpful. The amount of time we spent in each town was just right.

Tour host Stefano did a fantastic job, very informative and speaks English very well. It ended up being a private tour as my wife and myself were the only participants

Our guide was a wonderful young man with excellent people skills. He regaled us with all kinds of interesting information about the area on the drive out that gave us a rounded sense of Puglia. At the sites, he outlined a suggested route, relayed some basic info about the place and gave recommendations for where to eat, the one we tried was excellent! We were free to explore the villages on our own, which was nice. One thing to note: A week or so prior, the company asked to change the date of the tour. We were able to accommodate, though I don't know what would have happened if we hadn't. In all, it's a convenient way to see all 3 villages without having to drive.

Having limited time, an unwillingness to either drive or take public transport, I went in search of a tour that would give me a taste of some of the best spots in Puglia. Having researched many I settled on this one which just happened to be perfect, Small group, pick up from your place of residence or very close by and taking in Ostuni, Alberobello and Polignano a Mare. On route to each destination Stefano our driver and guide, gave insight to the local culture,landscape and history . If we had any questions he was happy to answer them. Each stop Stefano gave detailed information of where we should go, best places to visit and a clear time for returning to the vehicle. It goes without saying that each stop on this tour was different and unique and I and my fellow travellers loved every moment. If you will be in the Lecce area but wish to get a flavour for a few of the other stunning cities in Puglia, this is by far the best day you will spend, exploring in comfort and with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. .

Our driver and guide Stefano was excellent. He gave a very informative commentary while we were travelling to Ostuni. When we arrived at each town he informed us where to go for the best photos, the history and where to buy the best food. I would highly recommend this trip. The towns visited were all superb and Alberobello is an excellent example of the fascinating Trulli houses in Puglia. The countryside was beautiful travelling through it. Stefano also answered all our questions from culture to history.

Our driver and guide was Stefano. He did a great informative commentary while we were driving to Ostuni, Alberobello, and Polignano. The day was well worth it. We were lucky that we had perfect weather so walking around all 3 towns was great. Stefano referred us to several places of interest in each town and also places to eat. I would highly recommend this trip. It may seem expensive but it is well worth every $ spent. Also I would highly recommend Stefano. He drove safely and the vehicle was very comfortable with air-conditioning.
