Gallipoli Morning Visit from Salento Ionian Coast

Get a real snapshot of local life in Gallipoli with this morning visit to the city. With your knowledgeable guide, you'll explore the ancient old town – wall-to-wall with baroque-style architecture – and lose yourself in Gallipoli's café-lined cobbled streets.Arrive in the city early morning, and you'll start your guided tour. Stopping by baroque chapels and maze-like lanes beneath the 14th-century walls, you'll soon see why the ancient Greeks called this the ‘beautiful city'.Head to one of the corner cafés in the cobbled backstreets, shop the boutiques, or take a walk along the promenade – the views are outstanding. But the real star of the show is watching the locals chatter back and forth as they go about their business – it's Gallipolini life to a tee. You'll return to the resort early afternoon.

Matera Tour with Cave Homes and Local Food Tasting
Excursions & day trips

Brindisi - Matera Tour with Cave Homes and Local Food Tasting

Matera has a lot going for it – it's a UNESCO World Heritage Site, European Capital of Culture 2019 and a cave city dating back over 5,000 years. Tour its historic lanes and ancient cave dwellings, try local Basilicata food and wine, then choose to visit the cave house museum or a rupestrian church. Anna, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The cave houses of Matera were once considered a shameful place to live, best known for poverty, disease and crime. Nowadays, many caves have been transformed into chic homes, restaurants, and hotels.'Considered one of the most outstanding and intact troglodyte settlements, Matera's big draw are the ancient cave dwellings known as ‘sassi', which translates to ‘stones'. First up, we'll check out the baroque quarter, where churches and palaces are built on top of the caves. Next, we'll venture into the Sasso Barisano and Sasso Caveoso areas to see ancient sassi carved into the flanks of Gravina canyon. The dramatic setting overlooking the wild, rocky landscape is all part of the charm.You'll pause for thought in the old quarters, where inhabitants lived in squalor up until the 1950s, which was when the whole population of around 20,000 was rehoused. Wandering around today's visually arresting town, it seems hard to believe how tough life once was here. You'll also get to try typical food and wine at Lucany Restaurant, before choosing between an optional visit to the cave house museum or a rupestrian church, cut into the rock.
