Itinerary

Centro Storico di Polignano a Mare

1 h 30 min

Free visit of the city where you can try the famous special coffee or delicious gelato in one of the many coffee bars in the historic center.

Look out from its balconies overlooking the sea to take pictures of the famous caves.

Dip your feet in the waters by the cliff at Cala Porto or simply admire the view from the bridge on the ancient Via Traiana.

Fly with your imagination next to the statue of Domenico Modugno.
I Trulli di Alberobello - World Heritage Site

1 h 30 min

Walk around the historic center with the possibility of visiting one of the thousands trulli inside.

Visit to the Trullo Sovrano (2 euros), the most majestic and rich in history, now a museum.

Visit to the Trullo Church dedicated to Sant'Antonio da Padova.

The trulli are extraordinary examples of dry stone slab construction, a technique dating back to prehistoric times and still used in this region. The trulli are traditional dry stone huts with a roof made of dry-set slabs. They served as temporary shelters or as permanent homes for small landowners or agricultural workers. They were built in roughly worked limestone, extracted during excavations for the construction of underground cisterns, stones collected in the countryside and from surrounding rocky outcrops. These buildings have the characteristic rectangular structure with a conical roof made of set stones.
Sassi di Matera

2 h 30 min

Visit to the ancient area called Sassi and lunch break in one of the many local restaurants.

The name Sassi identifies the two main neighborhoods that make up the historic center of the city of Matera, Baresano and Caveoso, obtained by working the local tuff stone.

Partly excavated and partly built, these rock complexes have been inhabited since prehistoric times.

Promoted to World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993, they represent the testimony of exceptional human life since the dawn of time.

Possibility of guided tours on request.
