Explore Authentic Puglia with the Trip of Your Dreams!

We will meet at Bari Airport (or Brindisi if necessary), the lively port city that will welcome us to the heart of Puglia, as we begin to dive into the authentic culture of the region.

We will head south to Lecce, the “Florence of the South,” which will be our base for the first two nights. From there, we will explore enchanting villages and beaches, including Otranto, Gallipoli, Mulino d’Acqua Beach, and Santa Maria di Leuca, letting ourselves be captivated by the timeless beauty of the Salento coastline.

On the third day, we will begin our journey back up the “heel” and explore three of the region’s most famous gems: Ostuni, Alberobello, and Polignano a Mare. We will spend the following two nights in Bari to fully immerse ourselves in the city and visit nearby charming towns such as the beautiful Monopoli.

Are you ready for an unforgettable adventure in the heart of beautiful Puglia? Join us on this journey that will take you to uncover the hidden treasures of Italy’s “heel of the boot”!

Highlights of our tour:

Exploring Salento from Lecce

Lecce will welcome us with its stunning Baroque beauty, and from there, we will explore the heart of Salento. We will visit medieval villages such as Otranto and Gallipoli, admire the breathtaking coastline of Santa Maria di Leuca, and relax on pristine beaches like Mulino d’Acqua Beach.

Polignano, Alberobello, and Ostuni

We will have the chance to visit three jewels of Puglia:

  • Polignano a Mare, famous for its stunning sea caves.
  • Alberobello, home to the unique and world-famous trulli.
  • Ostuni, the “White City,” with its winding alleys and spectacular panoramic views.

Cultural Experience in Bari

We will continue our journey through Bari, a city full of history, culture, and culinary delights. We’ll explore its charming alleys, taste local specialties such as the famous orecchiette, and visit the magnificent Basilica of Saint Nicholas.

Guided by a Local Friend

What’s better than exploring a place with someone who knows it inside out? I will be happy to guide you through one of the most beautiful regions in the world (according to National Geographic, which awarded Puglia the Best Value Travel Destination in the World for two consecutive years in 2023).

È stata una delle esperienze più belle della mia vita, e tutto grazie alla gentilezza, alla professionalità di Roberta, ideatrice del programma My Friend In. Attraverso il sito web, disponibile in tre lingue, io e un mio amico abbiamo acquistato diversi pacchetti per il nostro primo viaggio a Gran Canaria. Vi consiglio assolutamente le escursioni, abbiamo esplorato posti bellissimi come il Barranco de las vacas dove abbiamo scattato delle bellissime foto, spiagge paradisiache come quella di Anfi e Amadores e piccoli villaggi coloratissimi come il porto di Mogán, le dune di maspalomas etc..: Questo viaggio non solo ci ha regalato emozioni bellissime ma anche una nuova amica! Grazie Roby, sicuramente ci rivedremo presto!

Travelling for Gran Canaria and choosing My Friend In was one of the best decisions for our holidays . A wonderful experience thanks to the knowledge and organization of My friend in which led us to discover wonderful places such as Anfi del Mar, the Maspalomas Dunes, Mogan, Las Palmas and many others. With Roberta, an incredible and friendly Woman more than a guide , she accompanied us through this journey making us feel like real locals visiting the whole island in comfort and carefree. Completely in love with the island thanks also to all these adventures. Absolutely recommended!!!

Mi primera experiencia “solo” en Sudamérica, decidí viajar a Mexico (Yucatán). Pero no solo del todo, porque decidí contratar el maravilloso plan de viaje que ofrece My friend In. Roberta, que es la artífice de este genial proyecto, me asesoró en todo momento sobre lo vuelos más baratos, los alojamientos con mejor calidad precio y un itinerario completo de más de 1.000km por todo el Yucatán e incluyendo actividades que personalmente me gustan como buceo o visita a cenotes. Además, pude disfrutar de su compañía como guía y de su experiencia en viajes, durante toda la expedición. Honestamente es una persona maravillosa y entregada a su proyecto y clientes. 100% recomendable, sin duda, repetiré en otro destino.
