We did the walking tour of Bari with the pasta experience and we LOVED every minute of it! Our guide for the walking tour was Barbara. She was informative, funny and a joy to spend the afternoon with! Barbara handed us off to Dortea who led us to Merica’s kitchen where we learned to make Orecchiette pasta! We had a delicious lunch and had a blast!
We had a wonderful tour with Barbara exploring historic Bari. She was funny, personable, and engaged with us the whole time. We learned so much and got to taste, “the best focaccia” in all of Historic Bari!
We had a tour of Bari with a rickshaw, this was the perfect way for elderly or disabled people to explore Bari in an easier way. Our guide Christiano was very knowledgeable and shared plenty of information about the different areas we visited. Would recommend to those with difficulty walking long distances.
Velo Service is simply amazing. We used Velo Service to rent e-bikes and advise us and guide us on our journey. They also took care of our luggage transportation and made sure it met us every night. Theresa was very helpful and put up with our million questions prior to our departure. What started out as a dream on paper turned into reality and we can’t stop talking about it. If fact we’re already talking about doing this again. Thank you so much Velo Service. We will be back.
Our walking food tour in Bari, Italy was an absolute highlight of our trip, thanks to our fabulous guide, Chiara. From the moment we met her, she brought so much energy and warmth to the group, making us feel instantly welcome. Her passion for her hometown was contagious, and it showed in every story she told about Bari’s rich history, vibrant culture, and culinary traditions. She struck the perfect balance between fun and informative, sharing fascinating facts while keeping the mood light and engaging. As we wandered through Bari’s charming old town, Chiara led us through narrow cobblestone streets filled with character and life. We explored the stunning Cathedral of San Sabino and the famous Basilica di San Nicola, learning about their history and significance to the local people. Chiara’s storytelling truly brought these landmarks to life — it felt like we were walking through living history rather than just sightseeing. One of the most memorable moments was watching local women make orecchiette pasta by hand right on the street. Chiara explained the tradition behind it and introduced us to some of the women, who were as delightful as the pasta itself! The food stops along the way were equally wonderful — we savored pasta all’assassina, crispy panzerotti, and finished with creamy gelato, each dish showcasing a different side of Bari’s culinary heritage. By the end of the tour, we not only felt full from all the incredible food but also deeply connected to the city and its people. Chiara’s enthusiasm, knowledge, and charm made the experience unforgettable. We can’t recommend this tour enough — it’s the perfect blend of history, culture, and delicious food, all guided by someone who truly loves Bari and knows how to share that love with others.
