Reem_K, Aug 2026

Amazing pasta +. tiramisu class!

This pasta and tiramisu class was amazing! The chef as well as our guide were so great, and made the class enjoyable for everybody. They were very accommodating, and made sure everyone was on the same page while making the food. The pasta tasted great, and the tiramisu was the best I’ve ever had! They also give the recipe at the end of the class, so that you are able to attempt to make it yourself. The class itself lasted about 3 hours, and we had a group of 15 total. I would definitely recommend this class!

Bari’s Ultimate Street Food Tour - Small Group by Do Eat Better

Joanne_G, Aug 2026

The absolute best tour!

It’s been 2 days since we did this tour and we are still talking about it. It’s not just an incredible food tour, our guide Nicholas shared captivating stories from the heart of growing up in this city and how it has changed and become more accessible for tourists. We ate some of the best food we’ve ever tasted and he shared recommendations we visited the following day. I’m so grateful we found this tour, come with an empty stomach as you will leave with a full stomach and heart. 10/10 it’s a must do.

Boat Tour of the Polignano a Mare Coast with Aperitif

Tina_B, Aug 2026

Best boat tour I’ve taken!

The best part of our trip! Nico was warm, friendly and had wonderful stories to compliment the tour. His English is excellent and he sent helpful information prior to the trip to make finding him and boarding easier. The music was fantastic, we enjoyed a swim in the clearest water I’ve ever seen, and he even made us tiramisu. I really can’t say enough good things. I would also recommend the 9 am tour (words I’ve never said). The boat wasn’t full, it wasn’t too hot yet, and there were fewer overall boats on the water. It felt like we had the place to ourselves. If you’re wondering which company to use, pick Nico. He was truly delightful.

Efficient and timely

We only did the bus transfers, no guided tours or extra tickets, but it was exactly as we expected! Our driver was great, the whole day was timely, and we had plenty of time to explore both towns on our own. Clear instructions and plans for the whole day.

Apulian Cooking Class with Aperitif and Wine in Polignano a Mare

Nicole_S, Jun 2026

More Than a Cooking Class—A Beautiful Puglian Memory!

Our orecchiette cooking class with Annamaria was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Puglia! From the moment we arrived, she made us feel like family. Annamaria is an incredible teacher—so engaging, patient, and passionate. She shared wonderful stories about Puglia, its traditions, and the history behind the region’s famous orecchiette while teaching us the authentic technique step by step. By the end of the class, we were actually making our own pasta with confidence! The food was absolutely delicious, and sharing the meal together afterward made the experience even more special. The company, conversation, and warm hospitality made us feel like we were guests in a friend’s home rather than taking a cooking class. I took the class with my mom and my sister, and it’s a memory we’ll treasure forever. If you’re visiting Polignano a Mare and want an authentic Puglian experience, don’t miss this class. Thank you, Annamaria, for an unforgettable afternoon filled with laughter, learning, amazing food, and beautiful memories!

Alberobello, Monopoli & Polignano da Bari – Puglia experienc

Elizabeth_T, Jun 2026

Delightful day

Totally enjoyed the relax fun of a small tour van to the 3 cities of Alberobello, Monopoli and Polignana a Mare. This is NOT a guided tour. The van driver was however friendly, entertaining and informative throughout the drive and pointed us in the right directions once we arrived in the town. Just the right amount of time was given to us in each of the cities. Worth the extra money for the small van over a big bus tour.

Boat tour of the Polignano a Mare caves with aperitif

Abigail_W, Jun 2026

Great tour!

This was a great tour! You travel along the coast looking at the caves, seeing Lama Monachile beach from the sea and exploring the coastline and the buildings on the cliff. We then got a chance to swim and a glass of Prosecco and some trialling snacks to try! Our captain was very informative and was happy to answer any questions the group had. It was also very reasonably priced in comparison to a lot of other tours! I definitely recommend this tour if you are looking to do a boat trip to the caves of Polignano!

Excellent boat ride!

WOW THIS TOUR WAS FANTASTIC! First of all the music played on the boat was amazing and then the operator of the boat let us swim a little bit towards the end and poured us a glass of prosecco, the cave tour was awesome and the small bits of history described by the tour guide was amazing

Boat trip to the Polignano a Mare caves

Julie_P, May 2026

Must do trip in Polignano a Mare

The coastline of Polignano a Mare is full of caves. It is magnificent. This cruise left from the harbour a few kms out of town and traveled along the coast going right in to lots of the caves. The captain was a very skilled driver who navigated the boat in to tight spaces. We loved the outing. We were unfortunate that the weather was cloudy and a bit cold on the day of our trip so we did not swim. But on a beautiful sunny day, the swim stop would have been incredible. I think this is a must do activity whilst in Polignano a Mare. The caves are not claustrophobic if you are worried (as I was)

This was a great pasta...

This was a great pasta making experience. Silvia and Mariela were our tour guides and hosts and we had a great time. They taught us how it make tasty focaccia and orchiette and let us eat some of the creations. They were so nice to speak a little Italian with us and help us learn.

Alberobello & Matera : Full-Day Private Tour from Bari

Fabio_D, Dec 2025

Great experience

Very professional company, everything was perfectly organized. The driver and guide were both super friendly, knowledgeable and made the day really enjoyable. Matera is a unique town, that must be visited once in a lifetime. They also offered to change the drop-off point at the end of the tour as we preferred to stay closer to Bari city center see the christmas lights. You can trust them completely - and you won't regret it!
