Tour di Alberobello e Matera in bus privato da Bari

Tour di Alberobello e Matera in bus privato da Bari

Explore Alberobello on a self-guided tour from Bari that includes transportation. Discover this town that was named a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996 because it is an exceptional example of building construction using prehistoric techniques that have survived intact and still function in the modern world. A "trullo" is a small limestone house, made of dry stone walls, roughly worked limestone boulders collected from nearby fields and topped with a conical roof. Souvenir shops, B&Bs, bars and restaurants will cheer up your stay in Alberobello. The blinding light that emanates from the walls of the trulli, the streets that intersect with each other, create a unique and fairy-tale atmosphere that makes it a unique location in the world. You will continue your journey to discover Matera, one of the most spectacular places in Italy. It's hard to believe that less than 70 years ago, around 15,000 people, mostly farmers, still lived in caves without natural light, ventilation, running water or electricity. Today Matera is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and has been designated the European Capital of Culture for 2019. The ancient quarters, known as sassi, are a series of caves carved into the limestone, teetering on the edge of a ravine. You will admire a complex labyrinth of stone walkways and staircases full of local craft shops, cafes, and ice cream parlors.

Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996, Alberobello is an extraordinary example of vernacular architecture. The trulli, characteristic limestone dwellings built using a dry construction technique, date back to ancient times and are evidence of prehistoric building techniques that have survived to the present day. Their conical roofs, often decorated with religious or esoteric symbols, and white walls create a unique, almost fairy-tale atmosphere. During your visit, you can stroll through the cobbled streets and admire the perfect fusion of architecture and landscape. The historic center is full of local craft shops, bars, and restaurants where you can immerse yourself in the culture and flavors of Puglia. Alberobello is easy to explore on your own thanks to its intuitive layout and the warm welcome of its inhabitants.

Its history is ancient, with evidence of human settlements dating back to the Paleolithic era. Matera is famous for its Sassi, ancient neighborhoods carved into the limestone rock, where people lived in extremely difficult conditions for centuries. Until less than 70 years ago, about 15,000 farmers still lived in these caves, without access to electricity, running water, or ventilation, in a world that had remained almost unchanged over time. With the help of your guide, you will discover the extraordinary history of this city and its transition from a symbol of rural poverty to an icon of world cultural heritage. You will walk through the narrow streets of the Sassi di Matera, admiring the ancient cave dwellings, the rock-cut churches with Byzantine frescoes, and an intricate network of streets, stairways, and hidden passageways. Your guide will take you on a journey through time, illustrating the unique architectural features of the place and the city's rebirth in recent decades. Today, Matera is a vibrant center of art, culture, and gastronomy, with numerous craft shops, bars, and gelaterias offering an authentic experience of Lucanian life.

Boating through the caves of Polignano was one of our favorite memories from our time in Puglia. The tour lasted two hours and was the perfect amount of time for my boys (ages 7 + 10). The caves were spectacular and it was fun jumping in the water for a swim. Our guide was incredibly kind and knowledgeable. Instructions to the meeting spot were communicated well and parking was easy. Thank you!
