Puglia Virtual Tour: The Pearl of Southern Italy
duration 1.5 hours
Tour Overview
When people ask us what our favourite region of Italy is, Puglia is always near the top of our list. A magnificent unspoiled landscape of spectacular coastlines, olive groves and vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see, discover the delights of this endlessly varied region on our latest virtual tour. Join Andrea to explore this rich world of unique architecture - the conical shaped trulli typical of the region are a photographer’s delight, while a host of imposing medieval castles and Baroque churches stud the region. Located in the heel of the boot that is the Italian peninsula, Puglia is where the waters of the Adridatic and Jonian sees meet at the heart of the Mediterranean: discover the beautiful geography, exotic legends and fascinating history that have shaped the region over the centuries. Puglia is paradise for foodies of all stripes too - the olive made here is Italy’s finest, and the abundant local wines and hearty cuisine never fail to disappoint either. We’ll be getting a virtual taste of them all on our tour, so be sure to join us for this feast of the senses. See you in Puglia!

Tour Description
Meet your guide: Andrea
Hi I’m Andrea! A native of Naples, I’ve lived in the Campania region of Italy all my life, and I have a deep love for its art, archeology, music, architecture, cuisine, natural beauty and - of course - its people. I have shared this world with many, many visitors over the years,showcasing the vast range of this wonderful place. When I was 14 years old I started working as an actor in theatres, and this plays a central role in how I communicate on my tours today - I always try to put something theatrical into everything I do :-)

My friend and I have talked about visiting Puglia and so I wanted to get a sense of the regions. Well, I had absolutely no idea of how glorious Puglia is. The coastline! The olive groves! (Who knew that this was the best place to get olive oil?) the Baroque architecture! Now I am definitely going to have to visit.For anyone who loves the sea, and the beach, the videos Andrea showed us were breathtaking. Any webinar with Andrea is filled with history, gorgeous pictures and video, and a wealth of information. I love how enthusiastic he is! He has such passion for the South of Italy and for Italy in general, along with a great sense of humor. For those who want to learn more about Italy, or plan a trip in the future, or anyone who loves Italy, this webinar is a must see. :)
We loved the virtual tour of Puglia and really appreciated Andea's vast knowledge of the area's history and traditions. He even shared some stunning "secret" places that are well known or visited. This was the perfect "getaway" during the pandemic and will help us plan our next trip to our beloved Italia.
