A fascinating journey to experience most of the treasures of Puglia. Starting from Trani you will go to the wonderful city of the Sassi, Matera, carved into the tuff and declared a World Heritage Site; you will continue to the area of South East Barese and the 'Murgia dei Trulli', where you will see Alberobello (Unesco heritage site) famous for its charming trulli with conical roofs, the nearby coastal Polignano a Mare with its terraces overlooking the sea and the underground caves of Castellana grotte. From Monopoli, following undulating nature trails, you will reach the heart of Valle d'Itria: Locorotondo, a village perched on a hill and known for its fine white wine; Cisternino; Ostuni, called the 'white city' for the whiteness of its walls and houses.
