About Puglia
The “heel of Italy’s boot,” Puglia, also known as Apulia (Latin), is a charming region that can be visited all year round. The region contains some of Italy’s most vibrant nature, history, tradition, tastes and even spirituality.
Geographically, Puglia is located at the spur of the Italian Boot. It is an enchanting region that spreads lengthwise along the Adriatic sea and possesses marvellous beaches that will delight every traveler.
Join us on one of our small group tours as we explore the Puglia region in all its beauty. Take a dip in the crystalline waters of the Ionian Sea before relaxing with a glass of wine and local delicacies at one of our secret “slow food” restaurants.
Our recent trip to the Puglia region
Angela and Andrew recently visited the Puglia – they explored the region from North to South, meeting with local restaurant owners and tour operators to uncover the hidden gems for the upcoming holiday season. On their trip they stopped at the beautiful white city of Ostuni, the ancient town of Locorotondo and the stunning, baroque town of Lecce, to name a few. Our passion for Italy, and our knowledge of Puglia, is what makes an experience with Italy Touring unique.
Our difference – why you should tour Puglia with Italy Touring

If you decide to travel with Italy Touring on one of our intimate, small group tours, we promise that you will experience the magic of Italy in a way that no other tour operator can offer.
