Tour description
Enter the heart of Bari by exploring its oldest neighborhood, Bari Vecchia, the place where it all began. Stroll through the historic center, exploring centuries of history and discover how diverse cultural influences have shaped the city over time.
Along the way, you'll connect with the local community and share small moments of daily life. This guided tour is an immersive experience of architecture, folklore, traditions, and the lesser-known stories of local heroes. The tour focuses primarily on Bari Vecchia, with an introduction to the 19th-century quarter, revealing the city's two souls.
Among the unmissable stops: the Basilica of San Nicola, a symbol of faith and legend, the Cathedral of San Sabino, a splendid example of Apulian Romanesque architecture, the ancient city walls, where history comes to life, the Swabian Castle, an imposing fortress with a fascinating past, and the most characteristic alleys, where even today women prepare fresh pasta by hand.
Get ready for interactive games, historical insights, and poetry readings.
