Alberbello

A day tour to Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Puglia, Italy, offers a magical journey through one of the country’s most unique and picturesque towns. Famous for its trulli houses, Alberobello is a must-visit destination for those looking to experience southern Italy’s rich history, culture, and architecture.

 

Start your visit in Rione Monti, the most famous district in Alberobello, where over 1,000 traditional trulli line the charming stone-paved streets. These whitewashed, conical-roofed houses date back to the 14th century and are built using ancient dry-stone construction techniques. Wander through the labyrinth of alleyways, stopping at local shops offering handcrafted souvenirs, ceramics, and traditional Apulian delicacies.

 

Next, visit Rione Aia Piccola, a quieter and more authentic part of town where the trulli are still inhabited by locals, providing a glimpse into traditional Apulian life. For panoramic views of the town, head to Belvedere Santa Lucia, where you can admire the fairytale-like landscape of hundreds of trulli rooftops stretching into the horizon.

 

Don’t miss the Trullo Sovrano, the only two-story trullo in Alberobello, now a museum showcasing the history, craftsmanship, and everyday life inside these fascinating structures. Another highlight is the Church of Saint Anthony, a unique trullo-shaped church that blends Alberobello’s architectural charm with spiritual significance.

 

Food lovers will enjoy tasting Puglian specialties, including orecchiette pasta, burrata cheese, and local olive oil, in one of the town’s traditional trattorias. Pair your meal with a glass of Primitivo or Negroamaro wine, two of the region’s most famous red wines.Whether you're fascinated by historic architecture, cultural heritage, or authentic Italian cuisine, a day tour to Alberobello is an unforgettable experience.
