Bari is a welcoming city, rich in tradition, architecture and glimpses of the sea. Three days are ideal for discovering it at leisure, strolling through its most authentic neighborhoods and, thanks to Movery experiences, also reaching Puglia's most iconic villages.
Here is a simple, smooth and perfect itinerary for planning your trip.

Day 1 - Discovering Bari Vecchia

The first day is devoted to the historic heart of the city, Old Bari. A short walk is enough to immediately immerse oneself in the most authentic soul of Puglia's capital city. The narrow streets, stone arches and glimpses of the sea tell centuries of history.

Start the day by exploring the Basilica of St. Nicholas, one of the symbols of the city and a beloved place of worship for both Catholics and Orthodox. A short walk away is the Cathedral of San Sabino, another Apulian Romanesque wonder, while the Norman-Swabian Castle, with its imposing walls, dominates the old quarter.

Between monuments, be guided by the scents of the houses: here the ladies knead and prepare the traditional orecchiette in the streets, an image that has now become the most authentic symbol of the city.

For lunch try the Bari focaccia, soft and rich with cherry tomatoes, and the fried panzerotto, a true local institution. The day ends with a stroll along Lungomare Nazario Sauro, where the sea meets elegant palaces and the sunset gives wonderful colors.

Day 2 - Culture, relaxation and modern Bari

The second day is perfect for getting to know the more contemporary face of the city. You can start by visiting the Metropolitan Art Gallery. "Corrado Giaquinto", which houses important works by De Nittis, Bellini and other great artists.

After a morning devoted to art, you can treat yourself to a quiet moment at the University of Bari Botanical Garden. It is an ideal place for a relaxing break, surrounded by greenery and rare plants.

In the afternoon you can choose between a shopping session on Via Sparano, the city's most elegant street, or some relaxation by the sea. Urban beaches, such as Pane e Pomodoro and Torre Quetta, are perfect for sunbathing, having a drink or simply taking a stroll along the shore.

Day 3 - Hiking in the villages with Movery experiences

The last day can be dedicated to the wonderful surroundings of Bari, which can be easily reached thanks to the experiences selected by Movery. These tours are ideal for those who want to discover historic villages, incredible landscapes and local traditions without having to worry about travel.
