Hi everyone! I'd love for you to join me in exploring my favourite country - Italy! We are going to get to know a beautiful part of Puglia, where I've already been and left a piece of my heart at. My name is Barbara, I come from Poland, but I also had an opportunity to live in Italy for 2 years. Thanks to that, I speak some Italian and I really love talking to locals - which is why I can discover the best places. I am very open-minded, adventurous, and I just can't stay at home, I'm in constant movement :) We are going to be staying in 2 modern apartments on the ground floor, joined together. There's also a small private outdoor area surrounded by sun-shading reeds with table and chairs, where we can spend time together. Each apartment has a king-sized bed and a couch, air-conditioning, Wi-Fi, a kitchen and a bathroom. The accommodation is in Polignano a Mare, about 700 m from the main square, 400 m from the historic center overlooking the sea, and about one kilometer from both the famous city beach Lama Monachile and the beautiful beach of Port'Alga. Our stay begins on the 11th of April 2023 and ends on the 16th. On the 11th, we are going to meet at the previously determined location and check in. I'll be waiting for you guys to welcome each of you. From there, we are going to commute by trains, which are the best way of transport for this kind of trip and the tickets to each destination are really affordable. We are going to visit Bari, the capital of Puglia, Monopoli - the hidden gem, Matera - it's an ancient city located in a different region (Basilicata) and you may already know it from movies such as "The Passion", "James Bond, No time to die" and many many more. Polignano a Mare will be our home base, but we're also going to travel through it, as it's an amazing place. This trip is going to be full of sightseeing, exploring different locations, eating delicious Italian specials and enjoying La Dolce Vita drinking wine in the local restaurants with live music in the evenings. On Friday I'm going to take you to a real Cena Italiana, followed by an aperitivo and a party! I'm looking for people who are open-minded, love fun and music. You're the perfect fit if you don't like complaining and are flexible and respectable. This is gonna be OUR trip, so everyone needs to cooperate :) What is included in the price? - accommodation (shared apartment) - cooking class - welcome dinner - train tickets - insurance (if you are a Germany or Austria resident) - a fun travel guide (me!) - complete assistance before, during and after the trip What is not included in the price? - your travel to and back from Italy - food & drinks, personal expenses

Reiseverlauf
1

Polignano a Mare

Tag 1-2
Polignano a Mare - our home for the next 5 days. We are going to meet on the 11th of April, I will be waiting for you guys and when we're all settled and refreshed after the trip, we're going to celebrate our first night at a local restaurant. There's no better way to start our journey!
2

Matera

Tag 2-3
Our first day of sightseeing, we're going to spend in Matera. This city is located in another region - Basilicata. It's over 2 hours by train, so we need to take the morning train and come back in the evening. There is a lot of walking, a lot of stairs, but the views are amazing, so worth it! The atmosphere, the hidden cafés... can't wait to see it again!
3

Monopoli

Tag 3-4
Monopoli is known for aesthetically pleasing whitewashed houses that contrast perfectly to the turquoise waters that crash along the coast. The Old City is worth exploring on foot. Then - I've got something special for us! "An exceptional guided tour of the caves reaching more than 70 meters depth, through amazing scenarios made of caverns with fanciful names, canyons, deep abysses, fossils, stalactites, stalagmites, and dripstones of incredible shapes and striking colors" - Grotte di Castellana.
4

Bari

Tag 4-5
We can see the best of Bari in a day. That's also the day we have our cooking class planned, you're going to learn how to make pasta from scratch. The most known pasta in Puglia is called orecchiette - you'll go home with a new skill!
5

Polignano a Mare

Tag 5-6
It's Saturday, you had a great time yesterday, partying all night long... it's your day, we're going to take it slow, as it's our last. We can focus on food, chill by the sea and talk. I want this day to be relaxing and described in a term, "Dolce far Niente". Let's walk, drink coffee and enjoy the beautiful Italian weather before we have to go back home.
6

Polignano a Mare

Tag 6-7
This is our last day in Puglia. We will need to check out by 11am. I am already thankful for all of you who are joining. Let's make the best memories and bring them home! Remember to do a little shopping before your departure, you are going to miss Italian food :)
