Explore Bari live with a local

Sessions run live, not as a recording: you join at a time in your own time zone, and the guide follows whatever you want to see or ask about. Bari Vecchio is worth asking about: the walled old town, packed with lanes, churches and the basilica.

Every date has a minimum group size: if it does not fill up, it is cancelled and you are refunded in full automatically. Small groups, real answers, no script.

What a live session shows

  • Basilica di San Nicola A Romanesque basilica built to house the relics of St Nicholas, still a pilgrimage site for Catholic and Orthodox visitors alike.
  • Bari Cathedral (San Sabino) A twelfth-century Apulian Romanesque cathedral rebuilt after the Norman sack of the city.
  • Castello Svevo A Norman-Swabian castle expanded under Frederick II and later remodelled by an Aragonese princess.
  • Colonna della Giustizia A column in the old town where debtors were once publicly named and shamed.
  • Fortino di Sant'Antonio A small bastion at the tip of the old town, part of the sea walls that once ringed it.
  • Bari Vecchio lanes The tangled medieval streets of the old town, laid out deliberately to confuse invaders and pirates.
  • Lungomare Nazario Sauro One of the longest seafront promenades in Italy, curving along the edge of old and new Bari.
  • Piazza del Ferrarese A square on the old town's sea edge that turns into an open-air bar scene after dark.
