Bari Walk Through History

About this activity

Born and raised in Bari, tour operator with decades of experience but above all in love with my city whose history, traditions and artistic and architectural beauties I want to make known. This tour will take you to discover the city of Bari through its millennial and recent history: from its origins to the cult of San Nicola up to its urban expansion in a unique walk through the alleys, cathedrals, noble palaces, theaters and squares of the historic center, the French quarter and the monumental area.
