From Fish to Friendship

Amy_T, Nov 2025
This was the highlight of 14 days in Italy, Croatia, Greece, and Malta. Giorgio was fantastic and provided a truly behind the scenes look at real life in Bari. He even provided an impromptu session of wine tasting. He guided us through the fish market, chatting with locals and introducing us to friends. We enjoyed Espressos, special Bari pastries, Peroni at the men's club, chatting with a Nonna and tasting other local delights. He shared stories and history, and friendship with our group of 4. His passion and personality made our day! We are ready to go with him on a week-long adventure when he has it set up!! Our entire group of friends rated this 5+ 🌟

I would highly recommend...

I would highly recommend this tour. Our tour guide was very personable and he showed us a side of Bari we would never have experienced if we walked around the city on our own. Thank you for sharing your beautiful city with us!

Not to be missed

Outstanding tour and tour guide. Gave us an incredible insight into the culture of old Bari, past and present. Utterly charming and delightful company to accompany us for 2 and a half hours. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Best Local Bari Tour

Giorgio is fantastic. His knowledge os incredible. You get to see Bari like a local. He even took me into a local house and I was able to practice my Italian with a local family

Full of cultural insights into the people and their lives in Bari Old Town

K_P, Apr 2022
The best guided tour I had in terms of insights into the lives and cultural aspects of the Bari Old Town

Amazing, 100% worth it!

I loved this tour. If I'm being honest it's probably the best one I've ever booked. It's not a summary of touristy places but a real, authentic and personal experience. It really gives you a glimpse of the everyday lives of the people in Bari. Would recommend it to everyone!

Bravo Giorgio, ottimo tour

Tre ore in giro per la città vecchia per riscoprire un po’ di storia e tante simpatiche curiosità locali. Ho prenotato per un gruppo di colleghi in viaggio a Bari per lavoro e mi sono aggregato anch’io con piacere. Esperienza consigliata

Una presentación impecable

Todos, especialmente el trato personal con los vecinos y las prácticas explicaciones del guía..me hizo un resumen muy compmeto de Bari y su historia y me dio consejos muy prácticos

Usædvanlige oplevelser

Frank_J, Jun 2022
En alternativ tur hvor vi fik indblik i livet for menneskene i Bari. Fyldt med gode historier og interessante steder hvor turister ikke normalt kommer. Dertil et besøg hos en Nonna for at lave pasta. Stor tak til guiden
