Step into the beating heart of Bari Vecchia, where every cobblestone tells a story and every corner reveals a hidden treasure. Join us on a guided walking tour through the enchanting San Nicola District, a medieval gem set on a peninsula, boasting 29 historic churches and a rich tapestry of legends waiting to be uncovered.

Our adventure begins in Piazza Ferrarese, the lively gateway to the old town. From here, we’ll stroll into Piazza Mercantile, once the epicenter of Bari’s social and political life. As we weave through the labyrinthine alleys, we’ll arrive at the magnificent Basilica of San Nicola, a sacred sanctuary that has drawn pilgrims for centuries and stands as a symbol of unity among Christian traditions.

Next, we’ll admire the grandeur of the Cathedral of San Sabino, home to Bari’s tallest bell tower, before stepping back in time at Marnarid, a historic grocery store that has been preserving Bari’s culinary soul since 1866.

A short walk leads us to the mighty Norman-Swabian Castle, an imposing fortress whispering tales of medieval conquests. Just beyond, we’ll pass through Arco Basso, where you’ll witness one of Bari’s most beloved traditions—women skillfully crafting orecchiette pasta by hand, a practice so iconic that even Dolce & Gabbana paid tribute to it.

To round off this unforgettable journey, we’ll treat your taste buds to a slice of Bari’s legendary focaccia or, if unavailable, a scoop of homemade artisanal gelato—a sweet finale to an experience filled with history, culture, and authentic flavors.

Come walk, discover, and indulge in the soul of Bari!
