The trip in a nutshell
Embark on an enchanting group journey through Southern Italy where every corner promises a unique experience!

Immerse yourself in a delightful blend of culture and nature, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Our adventure begins with exploration of the coastal cities of Bari and Trani, followed by a journey into the ancient marvels of Matera - the town where the James Bond film Skyfall was filmed! From there, we'll wind our way through picturesque villages overlooking the sea, stopping to admire the characteristic trulli of Locorotondo and Alberobello.

As we traverse the region, we'll pause to relax on the stunning beaches of the Puglian coast, basking in breathtaking sunsets and indulging in delicious aperitifs. And of course, no journey through Italy would be complete without savouring the flavours of traditional dishes, complemented by the warm hospitality of the locals.
