What are people saying about Bari

Amy_M, May 2026

Great boat ride. Our...

Great boat ride. Our captain took us to many beautiful spots and navigated expertly into the caves. We learned a lot about the area and saw beautiful views and got great pictures. We had some time to swim and have some prosecco. It was a lovely boat ride. Perfect amount of time and he played good music!

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)

An excellent introduction to Bari

It is a great introduction to the old town of Bari. Our guide, Alessia was knowledgeable about the food, history and culture of the area. This was evident during the tour as we leaned so much and our tastebuds were tantalized by the excellent food. It is an excellent way to discover all that Bari has to offer.

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

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!

It was such a beautiful...

It was such a beautiful experience, self guided when in the little towns which we loved however only wish we started with Alberobello rather than doing that last because we were too tired to properly explore (but that’s a personal opinion and does not reflect negatively on the tour itself)

Fantastic boat excursion,...

Fantastic boat excursion, ride saw about 4 grottos, as advertised except grotto azzure, was told not sure why this grotto was listed, instead should be lovers grotto. Still, we enjoyed the ride, funny and informative. Loved the swimming near a grotto that you could swim into if calm waters. Would recommend.

William_P, Aug 2025

Orecceptional!

Excellent experience. We learnt more than just how to make orecchiette but how to complete an entire meal in a proper way, from the pasta > sauce > components of the dish itself. Daniele was an exceptional teacher and made for a very relaxing and fun few hours. Highly recommend!
