After meeting your group, you'll board a comfortable, air-conditioned minivan for a journey through the picturesque Itria Valley, a region characterized by centuries-old olive groves and rolling hills. The first stop is Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where you'll take a guided tour of the town's characteristic limestone neighborhoods. You'll explore the historic Aia Piccola, which still retains a tranquil and authentic atmosphere, before strolling through the famous Rione Monti.

From the countryside, the tour moves to the picturesque Adriatic coast for a visit to Polignano a Mare. This beautiful village, perched on jagged limestone cliffs, offers breathtaking views of the turquoise waters. Your guide will lead you through the winding whitewashed alleys of the historic center, pointing out hidden balconies overlooking the sea and the renowned pebble beach of Lama Monachile. As the day draws to a close, you can relax during the comfortable return transfer to Matera. You'll arrive in the afternoon, giving you plenty of time to enjoy the evening glow of the Sassi after a day spent discovering Puglia's most precious treasures.
