Bari sailing cruise in search of dolphins

It is not the usual tour but a riot of emotions. Those who wish can participate in the maneuvers on board and in driving the sailboat. If the sea permits it, we play wonderful games by being towed with a rope by the boat pushed by the wind. The Apulian snack offered by the commander was excellent. We like to give advice to our guests on how to spend their holidays in Puglia well. If there is wind we will definitely go sailing, if there is no wind we will be able to swim peacefully in the blue waters of the Adriatic Sea.

What are people saying about Bari

Virginia_C, Aug 2026

Great local secrets. Take this tour!

Great experience with a local tour guide. Nicholas was great. He fed us very well We learned how to find the best gelato. It is a lot of walking over uneven stone surfaces but mostly flat. We we delayed in meeting up with the group as we couldn’t find the meeting point. Taxi dropped us at wrong location but caught up. Highly recommend

Bari Cooking Class : Traditional Focaccia & Orecchiette

Tammy_F, Aug 2026

We had a great experience...

We had a great experience in a small group learning how to make focaccia & pasta the authentic Bari way. Although the cook couldn't speak English her neice interpreted & between them they were a great team & made it fun. Food was yummy & we left with full, happy bellies!

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.

Bari: Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine

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!

Boat Tour of the Polignano a Mare Coast with Aperitif

The Best Boat Tour you Could Ask For!

My mom and I were very excited to stay in the Puglia region on our vacation to Italy. The thing we wanted to do most was go on a boat tour of Polignano a Mare. We came across this tour and I knew it was the perfect one to book. Once you get to the pier, you will see all of the boats pulling up to the dock. Once we spotted Nico’s boat he helped everyone on. There were about 10 people on our boat tour. Nico was very informative and he was so kind to everyone. He took us to see the coolest caves and to the best swimming spot. After everyone swam, we were offered to have an Aperol spritz and some tarallini snacks. One of the best parts of all was his homemade tiramisu. It was so delicious! We even learned that his boat was named Carmy, after someone special in his life. Everyone on the boat was so kind and it was amazing to meet people from all over the world. I 100% recommend this tour with Nico, you will not regret it!

Boat trip to the Polignano a Mare caves

Paula_D, Jul 2026

A must do experience in Polignano a Mare!

Fun boat tour along the coast. Amazing views. A stop for a swim and a nice glass of fizz was a bonus! Only around 10 passengers so fairly "private". We did it at 4pm on 22nd June, so just about missed the worst heat of the day. One thing to note. The pier where the boats leave from is a good 25 minute walk from the train station, and no footpath for some of it. At our request, the organisers booked us a taxi for our return to Polignano town afterwards, which was a much better option.

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!

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!

Alberobello, Monopoli & Polignano da Bari – Puglia experienc

Lori_M, May 2026

Perfect way to get to see three diverse cities without the commitment of staying over night.

This was a great excursion to be able to see three cities with a driver! Nice not having to drive on my own. Nice to have a driver giving you suggestions of what to see and where to eat when at each city. These cities are small and perfect for a couple of hours.

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

Guided Tour by Catamaran with Aperitif from Polignano a Mare

Kari_M, May 2026

This was absolutely one...

This was absolutely one of the best boating excursions I have had an opportunity to experience. Daniele and Vittoria were so professional and hardworking and fun. You could tell they enjoyed what they do and they do an amazing job. The boat and the views were gorgeous and the food and beverages provided were delicious. Highly recommend if you want some amazing views of Polignano a Mare and as Daniele said, a “refreshing” dip in the Adriatic.
