Your Itinerary

Ostuni

Ostuni, the "white pearl of Puglia" appears as a mirage to those arriving from the road that connects it to the coastal state road, a white cloud suspended in the blue sky typical of the area and overlooking a vast valley of millenary olive trees protected by the State. Dazzling the whiteness of the houses and the whitewashed streets, in the evening it turns into a magical village of light with a lively nightlife! Getting lost in its alleys surrounded by silence will be a pleasure for the eyes and for the soul, it is impossible not to recognize the strong Greek imprint that characterizes the city and that makes us understand the origins of the white city par excellence!

Cisternino

The whitewashed houses of this neat and charming town perched on a hilltop are surrounded by the green typical vegetation of the Murgia dei trulli, in a very panoramic position overlooking Itria Valley, it's declared one of the 100 most beautiful little town of Italy! The main church dedicated to S. Nicola houses a 1517 statue of a Madonna with Child by Stefano da Putignano, the most important Renaissance artist of Puglia!

Polignano a Mare

Spectacular and scenic is the location of the historic center of this town in the south of Bari, perched on a high white cliff overlooking the sea, Polignano a mare offers a maze of alleys that open surprisingly on balconies 30 meters above the sea level. Capital of the Apulian artisan ice cream, it is the birthplace of Domenico Modugno, whose statue dedicated to him stands out on the beautiful city waterfront. Theater of several international movies sets, it is one of the most famous tourist destinations for its turquoise and clean sea, awarded by Legambiente!

We enjoyed a tour of three beautiful Apulian towns with Favio and Valerio plus Elena that was shadowing to be a tour leader herself. Although it was a rainy day, not typical for this region, they made it a memorable day nonetheless. It felt more like a day of fun with longtime friends, plus the amount of knowledge that Favio shared with of this region made it a learning experience. Highly recommend!

We couldn’t have been happier with our wonderful guide and driver Gianfranco and Valerio from Go2Bari. From the moment we met until the end of a well organised, efficient and unbelievably informative trip we knew we had chosen the best guide and driver. Gianfranco was so kind, engaging, and knowledgeable and answered every single question we had for him. We visited Cisternino, Ostuni and Polignano a Mare (3 magical towns in Puglia, Italy) with them. He was very personable, super knowledgeable and clearly interested in giving us the best tour he could. Both went out of their way to take us to another amazing viewpoint of Ostuni on the way. We learnt about history, art, culture and much more. We are well travelled and have high standards and we were very happy with our tour - Gianfranco was great and spoke excellent English. Truly exceptional experience and highly recommended. Thank you for a wonderful day, Gianfranco and Valerio.
