The standout city in Apulia, Monopoli, resides on Bari’s southern coastline. It boasts a stunning old town blocked off by a heightened wall bristling with cannon and a 16th-century castle. In its thin streets filled with the scent of the sea breeze, the city feels authentically like a serene fishing village by day and turns into one of the most vibrant hangouts in the Apulian evening scene.
The historic heart of the town in Bari’s south, located dramatically on a high white cliff with the sea below, Polignano a mare, is a sight to behold. It features a labyrinth of alleyways that abruptly open out onto balconies situated 30 meters above sea level. The place has been host to various

Fantastic Tour with the Fabulous Elena - This Tour was the best way to see
Alberobello, Monopoli and Polignano.
Elena and Valerio were absolutely fabulous, Elena was so knowledgeable, caring, attentive and funny. Elena truly made our trip a memorable one. The tour was small and personal and we had the best time. Valerio was such a gentleman and his driving, knowledge and humour was a great addition. Elena and Valerio make a great team! This is such a special part of the world and to be able to see and experience so many things in a short amount of time was Fabulous!
The tour had structure but was also the perfect amount of flexible, in that we didn't miss a thing but also got to stop where we wanted and taste local foods and beverages ( if you are a coffee lover be sure to try the Special Coffee - ask Elena at the start of the tour and she will advise)
Thank you Elena and Valerio, we had the best day!

Wonderful experience with a great tour guide and driver - My family of five from ages 8 to 18 plus my wife and I had an excellent experience with the tour. Our guide, Elena, as well as our driver, Valerio, were superb. Our driver even went out of his way to ensure he parked in the shade so that the van would be as cool as possible when we returned from a stop at a site (it was a very hot day.) Elena was very knowledgeable and kind. We saw all that we needed to see, but we were never rushed. She was friendly and informative. She was engaging, and we had just the right amount of time in each location. There was no part of the tour that was boring at all. I would highly recommend this experience! We also had very pleasant tour companions.

Very professional tour guides - Great tour, knowledgeable guide (Fabio), responsible driver (Valerio). Highway was suddenly closed so Fabio had to invent a different route on the spot, and all turned out fine.

A beautiful area, but needed a better guide - It was interesting seeing the towns, but the actual tour was not very good. The guide didn’t ask us what we were interested in and took us to a few churches, showed us the beaches, dropped us at one restaurant for lunch without offering other restaurant choices and gave us just 20 minutes to explore on our own. The level of information we received from the guide was just as much explained in the handouts at the various spots we stopped. The driver, Paulo, was actually a much better guide and provided us more information about the areas we were visiting, Italy history, culture, and politics and answered any questions we had. I didn’t feel like this tour was worth it for the amount of money spent.
