Destinations :

- Bari is the most important city of the Puglia, the region's capital city and a vibrant commercial center. The city is situated to the South East of the Ofanto river, on the coast of the Adriatic Sea, with a port which links Italy to the East. Even today the historic trade fair the Fiera del Levante is still an important national event. Corso Vittorio Emanuele divides the old city of Bari from the new town. Interesting monuments to visit include the Basilica of St Nicola, the Svevo Castle of Ferdinando II, the San Nicola harbor, the Provincial Archeological Museum, the Cathedral Museum and the Provincial Art Museum of Bari. With its great maritime traditions, the fish cuisine has to be tasted with marvelous sea food best savoured in the "nderre a la lanze" area.

- Tourists come to Alberobello from all over the world to see its unique urban landscape. The town has become famous internationally because of its "Trulli", cone shaped houses constructed in stone blocks known as chiancole. Alberobello is sited on two hills, divided by a river. The Western hill is the oldest part of the town and here the largest number of Trulli can be found.The old town is divided into two districts, Aia piccola and Monti, which are of national importance and have been granted special status by U.N.E.S.C.O. Profuse greenery, olive and almond trees cover the hillsides. Craft industry is particularly important, with all types of traditional products being made.

- An enchanting seaside destination, Polignano a Mare is an ancient town built on a spur of rock directly above a magnificent, clear blue sea. The history of the town and the beauty of the surrounding landscape have made Polignano a Mare one of Puglia's major tourist attractions. Through the archway of the Vecchia Porta, visitors access the old town of Polignano, to this very day encircled by the original perimeter walls and inside which the Chiesa Matrice is located. Inside the church, which served as the town's cathedral until 1818, precious works of art attributed to Stefano di Putignano, including an exquisite sculpture of the nativity, can be admired. The rocky coastline of Polignano is characterised by an incredible number of inlets and natural caves, many of which were inhabited in prehistoric times. The "Grotta Palazzese", one of the largest caves in the Puglia region, is particularly worthy of visit. Polignano owes its fame above all to its clear blue sea and splendid beach, opposite which the "Scoglio dell'Eremita" can be seen, an immense rock rising up out of the waters. Just 3 km from the center of Polignano lies the magnificent 11th century Benedictine Abbey of San Vito.

- Capital of the Ionian coast and one of the three geographical summits of Puglia's Salento region, Taranto, "city of the two seas", greets visitors with an intoxicating concoction of past and present. The third most densely populated continental city in Southern Italy with a large industrial port second only to that of Genoa, Taranto's tourist attractions include the swing bridge, built in the late 19th century to span the navigable ship channel that joins the mar piccolo (little sea) with the mar grande (big sea); the thousand year old Cathedral of S. Cataldo; Giò Ponti's Concattedrale; the Aragonese Castle; the MarTa National Archaeological Museum, where you can see the traces of the city's ancient Greek past; and the tomb of the Athlete of Taranto, discovered in 1959.
Perhaps the best time to visit Taranto is during holy week, when the streets are lined with processions which recall the rituals of the Spanish Catholic tradition and of the Aragon dominion

- Lecce is the capital of the Salento because of its geographical position in a the region looks out over both the Ionic and Adriatic Seas. Known as "the Florence of Baroque", Lecce has a wealth of architectural monuments in Baroque style, with gargles, portals and monuments made from Pietra Leccese, an easily crafted gold colored stone.

Then there is the Roman Amphitheatre, The Greek Amphitheatre, the Obelisk, Palazzo Celestini, Palazzo Carafa, the Church of St Matteo, the Carlo V Castle, the Teatini Church, Piazza Duomo.
