Bari walking tour with pasta experience

A blast from the past is essential to the pasta experience. After visiting Bari old town, a moment of interaction with the local ladies is not to be missed.

The tour begins visiting the main attractions of the old town such as the Basilica of Saint Nicholas with its precious Crypt, the ancient Cathedral of Saint Sabinus and the millenary Swabian Castle.

In Bari grandmothers open up the doors of their houses from the early hours of the morning, come out singing old songs, sweep the stone floor and scatter their homemade orecchiette on the mesh screens of wooden trays.

Then you will stop in a lively, populated and animated location, a local lady’s house opened to everybody where the grandmother combines real life and interaction with tourists. If you are interested in living like a real local, we will not disappoint your expectations. Here Nonna Maria will catch you up in chatting while kneading semolina and making orecchiette of all sizes. A lifetime is not long enough to become a pasta expert, as the ladies confirm.

The tour ends with a tasting of the true Apulian flavours, orecchiette with homemade fresh tomato sauce.
