Alberobello: The Charm of the Trulli
The morning will be dedicated to exploring Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its trulli: ancient stone houses with conical roofs, unique in the world.
During the tour, we will visit:
- Rione Aia Piccola: the most authentic district of Alberobello, home to around 400 trulli still inhabited. Walking here feels like stepping back in time.
- Belvedere: one of the most stunning panoramic viewpoints, where you can admire the vast landscape of trulli that defines this enchanted village.
- Casa D’Amore: a symbol of freedom, this was the first house built with mortar, marking a new era for the town.
- Church of Saints Cosma and Damiano: dedicated to the city's patron saints, this monumental church is a must-see for those interested in the spiritual side of Alberobello.
- Rione Monti: with over 1,000 trulli, this is the most tourist-friendly neighborhood, filled with artisan shops and local products.
- Sant'Antonio Trullo Church: the only church in the world built in the trullo style, a surprising adaptation of this unique architecture to religious buildings.
Lunch Break: Savor Local Cuisine
After the tour of Alberobello, you will enjoy a well-deserved lunch break. You can choose from a variety of local restaurants and taverns, where you’ll taste typical Pugliese dishes: from orecchiette with tomato sauce to fresh seafood specialties, the lunch will be a culinary experience to remember.
Locorotondo: A Village of Flowered Alleys and Stunning Views
In the afternoon, we will head to Locorotondo, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, famous for its circular historic center and always-flowered balconies. Here, you’ll be immersed in a relaxed and romantic atmosphere.
The must-see stops include:
- The Alleys of the Historic Center: a maze of whitewashed streets, with white houses and balconies overflowing with flowers. During the Christmas season, the village transforms into a living nativity scene.
- Church of San Giorgio: a majestic Baroque church dedicated to the town’s patron saint, featuring stunning frescoes and artwork.
- Church of San Nicola: a hidden gem, dedicated to one of the most beloved saints in Puglia.
- Church of Madonna della Greca: a Romanesque church dating back to the 13th century, one of the oldest and most fascinating in the village.
