Our boat ride led by...

Our boat ride led by Francesco was wonderful! His energy and charm made the experience all the more memorable. We enjoyed the great weather, saw beautiful caves accompanied by Francesco's educational narration, and had delicious prosecco and focaccia - this focaccia was the best we had during our entire 9-day trip to Italy! We also had a lovely swim in the water near Polignano a Mare. We would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone :)

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

Nancy_W, Jun 2026

Great Overview of Bari

Lots of delicious food, and fascinating information about the city's history and culture. Very fun to try the octopus sandwich! (it tasted like shrimp--surprisingly very good). Be sure to come hungry; there's a wide variety of Italian foods in large quantities. And be prepared to walk quite a distance.

Alberobello and Matera Bus Tour, from Bari

Cathy_A, Jun 2026

Alborobello and Matera day trip with guides in both cities

This is a must do experience if you are in the region. I would not do more than two cities in one day . Our guides in both cities were excellent and locals. Definitely pay a little extra for guides versus the online option. You’ll have a better experience. Alborobello and Matera are unique gems, I highly recommend if you enjoy history!

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.

Fun all around! Fantastic- easy going guides, intriguing cave tour

This was a fantastic tour! The boat was small with about 15 people, the guides were so much fun , young energetic and just easy going and very informative. Champagne and snacks were served or juice for kids or as an alternative. We had such a good time with the other people on the boat as well because the guides were so encouraging and full of smiles. The tour toke us to many caves each with their own stories. We also had a chance to take a swim and enjoy the Adriatic sea. I highly recommend this boat company!!

Excellent trip with Gabriel. We were able to customize to the locations we wanted to visit. Matera and Monopoli were stunning and Gabriel provided very good info. He was also kind enough to pick us up in Polignano and dropped us at our final destination in Trulli area.
