Emanuele, our guide, was superb: good humoured, knowledgeable and with great inter-personal skills! He paced the tour perfectly, with just enough information to maintain our interest, but without overloading us. We saw things we would have missed on our own. We had an insight into daily life in Bari's old town: learning how to make the local orchiette pasta from an Italian nonna (in her own home) was absolutely the best part of this tour! I absolutely recommend it!

One of the meeting points is listed as the Bari Port. This is misleading. They consider the meetup point in the city. Every other tour we took said port and was at the port near the ship. I went on their chat line and was told that I would have to travel into the city and try to locate what they consider the port. I told him I walk with a cane. I was told that their was nothing they could do. We were not able to go and lost $215 I do all of my bookings with Viator. Shame on you Viator

We loved everything from the cooking class to the music and Gelato. Cera was a perfect guide. This was by far our favorite tour!

We did this on a class trip(Age 20-21, +a grown teacher), and we can all agree that it’s one of our best experiences ever! The tour guides were amazing and super fun, and made it fun for younger audiences as well as the older. The local lady were super nice, and it was such an amazing way to really feel the culture in Italy! You get so much for the price, with both food, history and conversations, that it will definitely be worth the time and money. 10/10 recommend, and would do it again!

Ask for Teresa! A wonderful, positive, knowledgeable guide and peddler. We enjoyed every minute of our experience and learned a lot about Bari and saw things we may not have done without her guidance. Highly recommended

We did the pasta tour. Our guide Vlady was very good and knew a lot about the city. He explained everything very clear and it was really nice to listen to him. After our city tour we had the ‘pasta experience’ we got a tutorial from a local how to make orecchiette. Afterwords we could try our self. It was really fun! Velo service is a professional tour agency with good tour guides. I recommend everybody who visits Bari to book a tour with them.

Bellissima esperienza in rickshaw con cui siamo riusciti a visitare Bari vecchia in mezza giornata grazie anche alla professionalità di Emanuela. Divertente anche il servizio di cooking class con una signora del posto. Marco e Romana da Tropea

Am Anfang stand im Januar einfach nur Bari. Gebucht, umgesetzt und ganz tief eingetaucht in eine wunderschöne Region bin ich. Puglia dich vergesse ich nie wieder! Ich tue es wieder. Denn da wartet noch einiges mehr im Paradies. Einen besonders lieben Dank an Anna von Velo Service. Super das die "Bike-Tour" wie besprochen stattfinden konnte. Klasse! So konnte ich auf Rad bei einem Traumwetter direkt ganz tief in Bari eintauchen. Lieben Dank auch an unseren Guide für das einfache und nicht zu schnelle Englisch. Die Pasta-Tour hat mir super gut gefallen. Diese tolle Gastfreundlichkeit in Italien hat mich glücklich gemacht. Wunderbar warst du Puglia. Immer weiter werde ich mir genau so Glück schenken. Du warst mein absolut größtes Ding! Wahnsinn. Grazie mille! 😍 #puglia #italy #paradise #summer #july2021 #itsgoodtobealive #collectmomentsnotthings

Nonostante io viva a Bari da tempo, questo percorso mi ha fatto scoprire tante curiosità e particolarità della città che non avrei mai immaginato, e tutto grazie alla simpatia e alla preparazione di Silvia. L’esperienza della pasta fatta in casa è stata divertente e folkloristica, la signora Carmela ci ha rese partecipi e divertite tantissimo con la sua batesità verace. Grazie!!!
