You might be wondering what benefits there are by joining a small group tour over travelling independently. The answer is very simple: plenty.
During your week’s trip with us, you’ll be based in the beautiful, gleaming white town of Ostuni, giving you the chance to get truly acquainted with this typical southern Italian town.
Unlike some other tours on the market where guests switch hotels every couple of days, at the end of each day of your tour, you’ll get to relax in the same place and experience the true Puglian lifestyle, meeting the local people and possibly making friends.
Another great thing about joining a small group tour is that you’ll get to meet like-minded travellers like yourself. Travelling on your own can get lonely, but on one of our tours you’ll automatically have new friends to share your Puglian experience with. You’ll visit the sights together, explore together and then, if you like, head out in the evening to sample some of the area’s delicious wine.
Puglia is a fantastic area to visit but if you really want to get off the beaten track and see some of its delightful villages and rural areas, it can be quite difficult on public transport. By joining one of our small group tours, you’ll have your own private driver who can take you to all the hidden corners of Puglia that you may not get to see otherwise.
Best of all, our tour guides are highly experienced and have a vast amount of knowledge about the Puglian region. So not only will you get to see all the great places Puglia has to offer but you’ll also learn a lot about our history and culture.
Private transfer with private driver on your arrival/departure dates from airport to accommodation and viceversa.
Transportation, driver and English speaking tour guide for the day tours mentioned in the itinerary.
Olive oil tasting and cheese tasting on day 2 and 4.
Entry tickets for the visits in Matera (cave house and rock church) and Lecce (Basilica).
Pre-book with no obligation. No deposit is required. You will pay the whole sum at the end of the tour here in Puglia - we accept all sorts of credit/debit card payment.
You can cancel the booking anytime and free of charge. Since we have reserved a space for you, we would highly appreciate a prompt communication of the cancellation.

While it might seem that there is much going on during our week-long tour of Puglia, we would like to remind you that we are big advocates of slow travel. This means that during our visits to the different places on the itinerary, we take a slow pace; after all, we want to enjoy everything the region has to offer, so there is no need to rush. We are mindful of the fact that some of our clients may have health or mobility issues; if this is the case for you, please let us know and we can adapt the tour accordingly, such as choosing routes with flat terrain, taking shorter routes, or slowing the pace down further. As this is a small group tour, we can be extremely flexible and the tour can easily be adapted to suit everybody’s needs.
Please note that our tours have a maximum of 11 participants - if we reach more than 6 participants we use 2 separate minivans. Using minivans instead of a bus also helps us reaching historic centers more rapidly and easily therefore maximising our time at each place we visit. Minivans are allowed to enter historic centers (buses are not). This allows us to plan drop-off and pick-up points in very central areas of each place we visit.
