What are people saying about Bari

Karen_D, Oct 2026

Bari Food Tour And More

The food and the restaurants our guide, Paola were fantastic! The focaccia and the polpo were absolutely amazing, hands down the best polpo I’ve ever tasted! However, what really made this tour rise above others, was Paola! The depth of knowledge of Bari Vecchia she imparted to us in the three hours we spent with her was immeasurable! In addition to the culinary experience, she provided archaeological, historical, cultural, and religious insights too numerous to list. She not only demonstrated her passion for her city and its rich history, but also her day job as a representative for local olive oil mill. Upon departing us for the evening, she provided us with her top three favorite Bari restaurants, which we of course, had to try, and neither of them failed to disappoint!

Polignano a Mare: Boat Tour of the Caves - Small Group

Elizabeth_M, Oct 2026

Great small Boat tour bigger isn't always better!

At first I was disappointed with the size of the boat there was 8 of us aboard, but it worked out fantastic. Our Skipper was able to manoeuvre our boat right into the caves where the bigger boats couldn't go, he was very skilled working with the waves. We enjoyed our drinks and nibbles and listening to the skippers commentary.

A great cooking experience!

We arrived late after some mis-direction getting lost. We were welcomed with smiles and completed a wonderful little class! The Chef Francesco had great humor and the class mingled well for an excellent time! We learned two types of pasta and had delicious wine.

Alberobello, Monopoli & Polignano da Bari – Puglia experienc

Juan_B, Aug 2026

Absolutely Outstanding Experience with Viator & Dreams for Tours! 🌟

It was an amazing experience. We had an amazing experience from start to finish! We completed our booking within 24 hours, but we realized that the original tour schedule would have made it difficult for us to return to our cruise on time. We reached out to Ryan Jan, one of the representatives from Viator, and he was incredibly helpful. Ryan contacted the local agency, Dreams for Tours, directly, and within less than two hours, they reached out to us to help arrange an earlier starting time. They were able to make the change, allowing us to enjoy the tour while still making it back to our cruise on time. That level of customer service was truly appreciated! Once we arrived, the hospitality was fantastic. And a BIG shout-out to Francesco, our tour guide! What an amazing person! He was attentive, respectful, professional, and did a wonderful job explaining the history and culture of Puglia. I honestly cannot say enough great things about him—I would give him 10 out of 5 stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ When we returned, we were running a little late, and I asked if he could drop me and my wife off at the cruise terminal. Francesco went above and beyond and personally took us there. Francesco, thank you so much! You gave us the best experience we could have asked for in Puglia. And thank you to Dreams for Tours and Viator for the excellent service and for making everything work so smoothly. Highly recommended! 🇮🇹❤️

Boat tour of the Polignano a Mare caves with aperitif

Melanie_W, Aug 2026

Great tour, saw the...

Great tour, saw the caves, famous beach in Polignano a Mer, anchored and had a lovely swim finishing with prosecco and a snack. Christian was welcoming and funny..he even stopped and let one of the passengers retrieve her sunglasses which she dropped in the cave! Highly recommend for an inexpensive tour!

Alberobello and Matera Bus Tour, from Bari

CRISTINA_P, Aug 2026

Had a great day & travel

It was nice, especially Matera. Without the tour it is hard to be so efficient and see 2 in one visit. Would do it again like this. There is plenty of time for both cities. Alessia was super nice and supportive from alberobello till the end, while the guide from Matera (pascuale i believe) was one of a kind! Great job, both of you! The weather was not our friend (super hot in aug), be prepared with water and at least a cap :) the transport was great, clean AC etc.

Excellent boat trip. We really enjoyed the tour along the beautiful coastline and visiting the caves. The guide was very good and gave us lots of information. Would recommend this tour to anyone wishing to visit the caves. The rose prosecco was a lovely end to the trip!

Bari Cooking Class : Traditional Focaccia & Orecchiette

Monica_L, Jun 2026

Amazing experience in Bari May 2026

An absolutely AMAZING experience! We had the chance to make foccacia from scratch, which tasted incredible when out of the oven. We made orecchiette from scratch as well, and Marika showed us the technique to make them, which we then got to practice. It’s harder than it looks! There was an English translator but everyone in our group spoke a bit of Italian. It was wonderful and we enjoyed every second of it. You definitely need to do this when you visit Bari!

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)

Bari Walking City Tour

Linda_W, Apr 2026

Tour of Bari

We did this tour on a Saturday. It was easy to find the meeting sport and check in for our tour. There are several cafes close so you have a spot to enjoy a drink while you wait. Our guide was informative and able to answer questions the group asked. Hit all the highlights of Bari and gave us a good idea where to visit on our own later

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!
