I Trulli di Alberobello - World Heritage Site
Walk around the historic center with the possibility of visiting one of the thousands trulli inside. Visit to the Trullo Sovrano (2 euros), the most majestic and rich in history, now a museum. Visit to the Trullo Church dedicated to Sant'Antonio da Padova. The trulli are extraordinary examples of dry stone slab construction, a technique dating back to prehistoric times and still used in this region. The trulli are traditional dry stone huts with a roof made of dry-set slabs. They served as temporary shelters or as permanent homes for small landowners or agricultural workers. They were built in roughly worked limestone, extracted during excavations for the construction of underground cisterns, stones collected in the countryside and from surrounding rocky outcrops. These buildings have the characteristic rectangular structure with a conical roof made of set stones.
90 minutes here
Sassi di Matera
Visit to the ancient area called Sassi and lunch break in one of the many local restaurants. The name Sassi identifies the two main neighborhoods that make up the historic center of the city of Matera, Baresano and Caveoso, obtained by working the local tuff stone. Partly excavated and partly built, these rock complexes have been inhabited since prehistoric times. Promoted to World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993, they represent the testimony of exceptional human life since the dawn of time. Possibility of guided tours on request.

Wonderful day with Enzo !!!
Our group of 6 spent a full day with Enzo and had a wonderful time. He told us lots of history about Matera and we had a great walking tour of the city. Then, off to Alberobello for lunch and more history of the town. We then headed to the cliff-side city of Poligano where we saw the statue of Domenico Modugno - the legendary Italian singer-songwriter who captivated the world with 'Volare'. We ended up back in Bari with a stop at the historic Basilica St. Nichols before heading back to the Silver Muse. Enzo was a great host and spoke very good English - highly recommend his tour.

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bari.
How much does Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera cost?
+
Prices start at $150 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bari usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bari is not rushed.
Is Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bari, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bari can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bari and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Perfect day out from Bari: Explore Polignano, Alberobello, Matera start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bari within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bari?
+
On Outty we rank every Bari experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Bari’s Ultimate Street Food Tour - Small Group by Do Eat Better, Boat Tour of the Polignano a Mare Coast with Aperitif, Bari Vecchia Group Tour in Italian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bari?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bari?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
