What to expect
You'll start at the main plaza, then wind through tight alleyways lined with the trulli's distinctive conical roofs and lime-washed walls. The guide will explain how these homes were built without mortar and their clever cooling systems. You'll duck inside a trullo to see how families actually lived in these compact spaces, then gather in another restored home for a tasting of local wines, cheeses, and cured meats. Allow time to wander and pick up ceramics or handicrafts before the tour ends.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes—streets are cobbled and uneven in places. The tour is accessible for wheelchairs and prams, though some areas remain narrow. Bring water, especially in summer heat. Public transport nearby if you need it.
