While many walking tours of Puglia miss out on the beauty of Basilicata, on this VBT | Country Walkers adventure we'll guide you through the ancient cave churches of the Parco Regionale della Murgia Materana. Explore the charming maze of streets of historic Matera, returning to your authentic hotel in the storied Sassi district. Discover Gravina in Puglia's famous 18th-century aqueduct bridge, and enjoy an olive-oil tasting at a traditional masseria amid ancient olive groves. Stroll through the gleaming city of Ostuni, where whitewashed walls contrast with the blue of the Adriatic Sea, then relax in Otranto—where you'll explore the delicate notes of local Primitivo vintages with an expert sommelier. Walk the shimmering Salento coast to Punta Palascia, Italy's easternmost point, and enjoy an evening of mouth-watering cuisine and iconic Apulian revelry.
This trip was such a delightful mixture- fascinating history and architecture, spectacular scenery especially along the Adriatic coast, delicious local food and wine, luxurious accommodations, and the most agreeable weather.
All of the above led by the most terrific guides: Emiliano Limauro and Cosimo Burgi. Both were professional, knowledgeable ,and congenial. I know that I speak for all 16 of us when I say, we couldn't have asked for better guides. This was my first trip with Country Walkers, and I hope it will be the first of many even though I am 80 years old.
