Puglia in a nutshell

White City escape

Price from
€600 per person

Overview

Ostuni is the photograph you've seen. The reality is better.

The White City sits on a hilltop above a landscape of ancient olive groves stretching all the way to the Adriatic — blinding in full sun, golden at dusk, impossible to photograph badly. The old town is a labyrinth of whitewashed alleys, stone arches and restaurants that earn their reputation without trying to.

A week here gives you Ostuni as a base and two of Puglia's most compelling day trips as the frame around it: Bari's old quarter and street food culture to the north, Lecce's extraordinary baroque to the south. We arrange both — you simply show up and pay attention.

What's included

Seven nights in a carefully selected property within Ostuni's historic centre — in a town this photogenic, where you stay is part of the experience

Private return airport transfers

A street food tour of Bari Vecchia — the best introduction to the city's food culture and its most alive medieval quarter

A rickshaw tour of Lecce's baroque centre

Not included
