Valeria was very informative and very knowledgeable. The tasting was wonderful and we left Alberobello felling like we knew much more about it than if we had not done the tour.

We visited Alberobello for this walking tour on a recent trip with 7 of family and friends. Our guide was lovely, and give us a great feeling for the history, and also took us to some great vantage points to get the best views of this fabulous place! The tour finished with a tasting of some typical local treats and liquors, which was delicious! She was also kind to recommend some restaurants for dinner. Thoroughly enjoyable!!!

Our tour guide Valerie was a lovely, informative and charming lady that made our tour a huge success. She was able to guide us at our pace to see everything she planned on

I like the museum how preserved everything looked you could get a good feel for their way of life ages ago. Learning about the city and how things are built was very interesting. We had a very nice tour guide. She was informative and prompt!

Touring through Alberobello with our private guide, Valeria, was fantastic. Valeria took us to different parts of Alberobello, starting with the quieter residential area and then ending in the more "touristy" area. We preferred the earlier part of the tour because we were able to wander up and down quiet streets as Valeria explained the history and construction of the Trulli houses and how they are being restored. The touristy area was very busy and didn't evoke the same feelings as we had in the quieter area. We had a tasting of local foods without any pressure to purchase anything. Valeria was great and even recommended a couple of places for lunch. She was an outstanding guide. Highly recommended!

Valeria is a brilliant guide, steeped in the traditions of Alberobello and explaining the historical importance and timeline clearly. We learnt far more than just walking around Alberobello, including a great tip for lunch 🙂
