Depart from the Petruzzelli Theatre in Bari and head to the Castel del Monte, which stands lonely on a hill in the National Park of Alta Murgia, 540 meters above sea level. Admire the octagonal and mysterious building of Swabian Emperor Frederick II.
Next, head to Trani, where you will arrive after about half an hour. Take a walking tour of the city and learn about its origins, which are lost in legend. Explore the old quarter that rises around the port on a small peninsula where a grandiose cathedral overlooks the sea, like a big ship.
