Choose from three departure times and meet your guide in Bari Old Town, or at your centrally located hotel. Climb into a comfortable rickshaw that can hold up to two adult passengers and one child, and set off to explore with your private guide.
Drive around the cluster of tight lanes that make up the Old Town and pass by the city’s most famous sites. See the Swabian Castle (Castello Normanno-Svevo), an imposing fortress by the sea, as well as the 11th-century Romanesque Basilica di San Nicola, an important pilgrimage site for Roman Catholics and Orthodox Christians. You’ll also see the Bari Cathedral, another massive Romanesque structure that dates back to the 12th century.
Chat with your private guide about Bari’s history. If you’d like to hear more about a particular sight, or even stop for a picture, just let them know — as this is a private tour, it can be tailored to suit your preferences.
As you squeeze through the maze of alleyways in the rickshaw, witness scenes from everyday life and pass local hotspots, such as a bustling fish market. Then, head down to the seafront, and savor a taste of delicious Italian ice cream.
Afterward, head to a house in the historical center, and find yourself immersed in local culinary traditions during a pasta cooking class. In the house, follow the lead of a local instructor as they show you how to make fresh pasta from scratch, including rolling the dough and cutting the shapes. Once the hard work is finished, reward yourself with a plate of your handmade pasta creations, accompanied by a glass of wine.
Your tour concludes in Bari Old Town, or alternatively, with drop-off at your Bari hotel.
