We booked a private trip to Apulia for my family reunion and Meet Piemonte did a great job sorting out incredible locations and activities. The inn owned by Antonio and his wife looked almost like a movie set where we were pampered like royalty and felt at home. Highly appreciate it!

The tour begins at 5:00 pm in the lobby of the hotel.
We recommend booking flights arriving in the morning or the day before. See below the paragraph Flights & Transfers for more information.
The sunny promenade of Bari is the ideal spot to set off Meet Piemonte’s Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour. Splurge in the sea-view rooms of a 5-star hotel, within walking distance from all major attractions and from the main shopping streets.
Late afternoon, meet a local guide for a two-hour introduction to the colorful Old Town and its labyrinth of narrow streets. We step inside the impressive Basilica of Saint Nicola to admire the well-preserved Romanesque architecture and later we shake hands with the ladies who knead fresh pasta by their front doors surrounded by children playing and laundry hanging from the balconies above.
Tonight we celebrate the beginning of our Puglia tour with a traditional 3-course meal in a well-known trattoria where the cuisine blends fresh seafood with the countryside recipes of the nearby Murgia region.
Day 2 – The Murgia Region: Olive Oil, Wine and Castel Del Monte
Meals included: breakfast and lunch | Accommodation: Bari
The day begins with a wonderful breakfast buffet served on the rooftop of our luxury hotel in Bari, with stunning views over the Adriatic sea and the harbor.
We drive for about one hour to the countryside of the Murgia region, a picturesque land with gentle slopes, traditional farmhouses, olive groves, and their typical white-stone walls built to define different properties.
Late in the morning, our Puglia tour visits a historic estate surrounded by 39,000 olive trees and producing the DOCG wine appellation of Castel Del Monte. The wine is aged in the impressive underground cellars dug into the tufa rocks under the estate’s central courtyard.
We learn useful information about the production of olive oil as we taste it with local bread and partake in a traditional farmer’s lunch paired with wine-tasting
Castel Del Monte, pearl of Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour
After lunch, the iconic shape of Castel Del Monte will appear on the horizon after a short drive.
The tour of the castle brings to life the stories of Emperor Frederik II of Svevia, one of the most eclectic and controversial characters in Italian history, who built the bold structure in the mid-1200s.
Listed by Unesco as a World Heritage Site, Castel Del Monte is a must-see on a Puglia tour for the 360° views over the region and its incredible references to infinity and to the number eight that recur in the architecture and many symbols.
Return to Bari in the late afternoon and enjoy a dinner on your own, as the tour manager is on hand to recommend restaurants within walking distance from the hotel.
Day 3 – The Pristine Coastline of Monopoli and the Caves of Castellana
Meals included: breakfast, and dinner | Accommodation: Masseria, north of Lecce
Check out from Bari and drive to Monopoli, a small fisherman town along the Adriatic coast with origins dating back centuries when it developed around the 16th-century Castle of Charles V.
The charming harbor with fishing boats bobbing in the water is the starting point of a leisure walk led by the tour manager along the whitewashed narrow streets adorned with vases of flowers, cacti, and colorful doorways.
Lunch on your own.
The Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour continues with a short drive through the mainland to the entrance of the caves of Castellana. We meet a local expert for an easy underground walk that does not require too much effort.
These caves are a fascinating natural wonder located in the province of Bari, renowned for their stunning limestone formations, intricate stalactites, and stalagmites, which have been formed over thousands of years through the process of erosion and mineral deposition.
Make sure to pack sneakers or sturdy closed-toe shoes with good grip and a warmer layer for our 50-minute tour that covers a distance of approximately half a mile.
The Masseria of our Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour
In the afternoon the straight highway connecting Bari to southern Puglia takes us to our home for the next three nights, a restored Masseria a few miles north of Lecce.
Staying in this former fortified farmhouse is one of the trip’s highlights and an experience that reconnects with nature.
Upon arrival check-in and relax in the central inner courtyard or in one of the many lounges decorated with an exquisite taste by the young couple who inherited this extraordinary property and welcome guests in their home. From the pool to the wine cellar, the greenhouse and the garden, and the kitchen filled with pots and old pans, every corner is like an open book that reveals a story. Rooms are spacious and well-appointed with elements that remind us of their original function.
Sit at the table and enjoy homemade Apulian cuisine at its best prepared only with seasonal ingredients and served in colorful ceramics.
Day 4 – The Salento Region: Gallipoli, Negramaro Winery and Lecce
Meals included: breakfast and lunch | Accommodation: Masseria, north of Lecce
The fourth day of our Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour is planned to take in the vibe of Salento, in the southern part of Puglia, rich in cultural heritage, with influences from various civilizations including Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Norman.
After a hearty breakfast in our Masseria, the first stop of the day is Gallipoli known for its crystal-clear coastline and the medieval walls built above the Ionian Sea. Weather permitting, it’s possible to stop at the pristine beach Spiaggia della Purità, and deep our toes in the water. Free time for souvenir shopping.
Then we are off to a nearby winery focused on growing Negramaro grapes and producing traditional wines of Salento. The modern facility is a masterpiece of engineering and it includes a museum dedicated to the family’s history.
Sit in the winery’s garden for an al-fresco lunch paired with the wine tasting.
The next stop is Lecce, once a Roman city rebuilt in Baroque style by exploiting the local yellowish stone that gives the historic center a unique light shade, especially at sunset.
The walking tour with a local guide is planned in the late afternoon and it includes a look at Roman ruins, the highly ornate exterior of the church of Santa Croce as well as other hidden treasures.
End the day in Lecce with dinner on your own in one of the many cozy restaurants or simply toast with an aperitivo and enjoy people-watching in one of the bustling piazzas.
Return to the Masseria.
Day 5 – Foraging, Cooking and an Evening in Ostuni
Meals included: breakfast and dinner | Accommodation: Masseria, north of Lecce
Enjoy a lazy morning with breakfast served in the central courtyard of our Masseria and take in the peaceful vibe of the countryside, maybe reading a book by the pool or discovering the grounds and the surroundings of the farmhouse on foot.
Late morning a leisurely foraging walk in the farmhouse garden is an opportunity to get familiar with Puglia’s abundant natural resources and farmers’ traditions.
Next, learn how to knead the orecchiette pasta – shaped like an ear – and delve into Puglia’s culinary heritage with a casual and fun cooking class.
Once lunch is prepared, we sit down to enjoy a leisurely farm-to-table feast. The table is set in the picturesque common areas of the Masseria, savoring the flavors of Puglia while soaking in the ambiance of the Italian countryside. Engage in lively conversation with your fellow food enthusiasts, sharing stories and culinary tips as you enjoy the fruits of your labor.
In the afternoon we visit the nearby medieval Abbey of St. Maria di Cerrate that in the past used to control the surrounding fortified farmhouses and the local southern Puglia coastline.
Next, we are off to Ostuni, one of the most picturesque towns of Valle d’Itria, a sub-region located in the middle section of Puglia.
Ostuni, often referred to as the “White City” due to its characteristic whitewashed buildings, is perched on a hill. Take a leisure walk with our tour manager in secondary alleys where locals live, up to the striking façade of the Cathedral with a unique rose window and a towering campanile.
Our culinary adventure continues with a gourmet dinner in a renowned restaurant of Ostuni as tonight we focus on the modern cuisine of Puglia, with reinvented traditional dishes. Return to the Masseria after dinner.
Day 6 – Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour: Alberobello and Altamura
Meals included: breakfast and dinner | Accommodation: Matera
After breakfast, check out and head north toward one of the most iconic towns of Puglia: Alberobello.
An expert local guide will lead us through the dwelling with the highest concentration of the famous trulli houses, which are cylindrical structures with conical roofs made of limestone.
Stories of what it was like to live in these homes are unraveled as well as the historical facts that imposed tributes to each new urban settlement, therefore the idea of conceiving buildings that could be demolished quickly in case of controls.
Free time for some souvenir shopping and lunch on your own in Alberobello.
Next, we drive north, all the way to the town of Altamura. We take an afternoon coffee break in a local pastry shop and indulge in cream-filled puff cakes with a funny and curious name. Follow our tour manager through the narrow passageways of Altamura, passing by small courtyards known as claustri where people still live, and arrive at a historic bakery with a wooden fire oven. A tasting of the famous bread of Altamura is a must!
As we walk in front of the majestic Cathedral and along the high street, get a glimpse of life in this part of Puglia before heading to Matera.
Matera, one of the Oldest Cities in the World
Matera is a short drive from Altamura, nestled in the neighboring region of Basilicata. Upon arrival, our luggage will be delivered by van to the hotel.
Check-in for the next two nights in a hidden gem, a former aristocratic palace that underwent a long restoration process to welcome guests in spacious and luxurious accommodations. We gather in the central living room of this boutique hotel to admire the view over the Sassi district, a Unesco World Heritage Site.
Enjoy the hotel’s privileged position between the modern and the old town, avoiding unnecessary climbing of steps.
Tonight a casual dinner features fresh salads, vegetables, and gourmet pizza prepared with ancient types of grains and local toppings.

Why an Escorted Tour to Puglia and Matera with Meet Piemonte?
We spend a lot of energy and time scouting local hosts, venues, and experiences that go beyond the ordinary and add value to the travel experience. For our Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour, we pride ourselves on being supported by some of the best local guides, and friends who helped us in the planning process. This escorted tour to Puglia and Matera is enriched by the insight of locals who take our guests by hand in a journey of discovery. For example, in the countryside of Lecce, we stay in a farmhouse where a large group could not fit and would never go, as their schedule is usually tight. We step into a medieval abbey that might not be the most famous site of Puglia but it holds the essence of the region through its history and art. When our Puglia tour goes to more popular and iconic spots such as the fortress of Castel del Monte and the world-famous Alberobello’s cone-roofed homes, the group size (6 -12 guests) allows us to have a closer look and a better understanding of the destination.
An Authentic Masseria in our Puglia Tour
The Masseria we use in our Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour is not just a hotel that looks like a farmhouse, but an authentic fortified structure typical of the Puglia region. The owners are a husband and wife who still manage the work in the countryside (olive groves, vegetable gardens, different kinds of crops) and they welcome guests into their home. The restoration of the Masseria brought a new life to the old barn and the former lodging of the farm’s workers. Old tools, potteries, kitchen supplies, fabrics, and crafts displayed in the common areas and the central courtyard look like works of art, wisely arranged by Vanessa, the wife, strong of her background in art history. Staying three nights there is the chance to experience rural hospitality at its best, in an authentic setting, yet with modern comforts such as air conditioning, comfortable mattresses, and linen. The place’s vibe is delivered from the first moment guests wake up in the morning surrounded by original pieces of furniture, by the rooster crawling in the distance, and with a healthy breakfast buffet that includes seasonal and organic products from nearby farms.
The charm of Matera, a Unesco World Heritage Site
The old section of Matera is a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its ancient cave dwellings, or “Sassi.” These remarkable structures dating back to Paleolithic times have been obtained from natural grottos on the steep slopes of a ravine in the Basilicata region and adapted into homes where residents lived until the 1950s. A unique, and breathtaking atmosphere that our small group can enjoy from a privileged point of view: the lounge of a luxury boutique hotel located right on the upper edge of the old town. Looking down at the maze of stairways and narrow streets one gets a glimpse into the past and a unique perspective on human ingenuity, where history and culture intertwine seamlessly. As we wander through the labyrinthine streets with our local guide, you can almost hear the whispers of the past, echoing tales of resilience and survival. Then, we board a tuk-tuk to return to the hotel.
A Foodie’s Puglia and Matera Tour
The cuisine of Puglia and Basilicata region, where Matera is located, is a celebration of flavors, rural traditions, and seasonal ingredients that reflect the region’s rich agricultural heritage. Puglia is known for its simple yet delicious dishes that highlight the quality of its produce, particularly olive oil, and fresh vegetables. One of the most iconic dishes is orecchiette, a type of pasta shaped like small ears, often served with a variety of sauces, including the classic broccoli rabe and anchovy sauce. The dish showcases the region’s commitment to rural tradition and to the effort of peasants to enhance the flavor of an affordable ingredient, such as broccoli or other vegetables through the saltiness of anchovies, the flavor of garlic, and good olive oil. Our Puglia & Matera Luxury Tour includes a cooking class where guests can practice the art of kneading fresh pasta and a foraging walk to the masseria’s garden harvesting what’s in season and learning about sustainability.
In Monopoli and along the endless Puglia coastline, seafood plays a significant role in the culinary landscape of the region. From grilled octopus to spaghetti with clams, the coastal towns offer a plethora of seafood dishes that reflect the region’s ancient exploitation of the sea’s resources. Our Puglia tour visits Ostuni, Bari, and Alberobello, where the fish is often combined with game, meats, and staple ingredients of the Murgia region, the inland section of Puglia where agriculture and hunting are still predominant. So on a restaurant’s menu, one can find both meat and fish to be fresh and of an outstanding quality.
Michelin-Star Dinner in Matera
Matera’s picturesque setting frames an incredible foodie town where the cheeses, bread, vegetables, mushrooms, and game of the Murgia Valley are at the center of ancient recipes. Here, the cuisine is influenced by the unique history and geography of the Basilicata region. From ancient grains to cereal, pulse, cheeses, and greens, the rugged Basilicata region is a foodie heaven recently discovered and acclaimed by international chefs. Bread alone, particularly the famous Pane di Matera, a sourdough bread that has been made using ancient techniques for centuries, is a protected product and used in many recipes. The region’s agricultural bounty is celebrated in dishes like cialledda, a bread salad made with stale bread, tomatoes, onions, and fresh herbs, showcasing the resourceful nature of the local cuisine. Embracing the culinary traditions of Puglia and Matera offers a deeper understanding of the culture and history that shapes this corner of Italy. Our escorted tour to Puglia and Matera, includes an outstanding Michelin-star dinner where such traditions are combined with a dash of creativity and modernity. Moreover, the evocative setting of Matera’s cave dwellings makes the Farewell Dinner of our small group Puglia Tour an unforgettable moment.
Small Group Puglia Tour, an Intimate Experience
Puglia is a region that boasts an array of must-visit destinations, each with its own unique character and charm. What makes Meet Piemonte’s Puglia tour different is the size of our small group. With only 6 -12 participants, our local guides can take secondary streets, show hidden details, and exploit a more flexible schedule than large groups.
One of the highlights is Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for its trulli, cone-shaped houses made of limestone. The town’s whimsical architecture, with its whitewashed walls and pointed roofs, is a sight to behold. Walking through the narrow streets of Alberobello feels like stepping into a fairytale, where visitors can explore shops selling local crafts, enjoy authentic pastries, and even stay overnight in a trullo for a truly immersive experience.
Another gem in Puglia is the historic city of Lecce, often referred to as the “Florence of the South” due to its stunning Baroque architecture. The city is a delight for history enthusiasts and architecture lovers alike, with ornate churches, palaces, and charming piazzas waiting to be discovered. The Basilica di Santa Croce, with its intricate facade and stunning interior, is a must-see, as is the Roman amphitheater that dates back to the 2nd century. Lecce’s vibrant atmosphere, combined with its rich cultural heritage, makes it an essential stop on our tour of Puglia.
