Full description
Perfect for travelers visiting Puglia without a car, this private guided tour takes you to the main attractions in the comfort of an air-conditioned minivan. Learn about the history and culture of the region as well as fun anecdotes and stories.
Meet the driver in the center of Alberobello and travel to Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the most fascinating cities in southern Italy. Walk among the Sassi (ancient cliff dwellings), which originated from a prehistoric troglodyte settlement, believed to be among the first human settlements in Italy. Explore the old village and ancient rupestrian churches.
Next, head to the elegant medieval city of Altamura. Visit the only Cathedral built by the Emperor Federico II of Swabian and walk in the historic center admiring the characteristic alleys, old palaces, squares, and an old oven where the typical Almura bread is baked every day. At the end of the day, return to Alberobello for drop-off.
