Puglia, Italy
  • What to pack

    Make sure to pack a pair of comfortable shoes, as well as comfortable lightweight clothing, and some sunscreen.

  • How much to tip

    Please note, in most restaurants in Puglia, a charge from 1$ to 3$ is usually already included in the bill.

  • Currency

    Having some local currency on hand is always a good idea while traveling abroad; the local currency in Italy is the Euro.

  • When to travel

    The best time to travel to Italy is usually considered to be late spring-early fall due to the nicest weather for sightseeing.

  • Food

    During Italy's midday siesta (1-4 p.m.), lots of restaurants and shops are closed, so make sure to keep it in mind while planning your trip.

  • Souvenirs

    If you are looking for the best souvenirs to bring home from Puglia, the detailed works of Grottaglie ceramic or embroidery is a great idea.

    Really liked our Italy travel

    Traveled to Italy

    Really liked the two main hotels, particularly the Albergo Del Sennato right NEXT to Pantheon: a very pleasant surprise. Guides were terrific, knowledgeable and nice- particularly enjoyed our day at the Colosseum, where we were shown Campo del Fiori and the best place for cappucino. Next time, I would suggest scheduling some evening tours or activities on some of the days, as our tours all ended by 1:00. Things went very smoothly logistically for the most part- hotels, guides, and drivers were on top of everything.

    Impressions of the Italian tour Cultural Capitals

    Traveled to Italy

    The most impressive guide was for Pompeii and Amalfi cost with the full day activities until 9:00 pm. The Rome guide was even willing to spend extra time to drive us to the Borghese gallery after the full length of the tour.
