Excellent tour with our guide Mimmo . The cooking lessons and experience with nonni and the tour were absolutely amazing. The food at end of the class was 5 star +. Very enjoyable and educational tour . Highly recommend this tour.

Amazing experience. We have done the Speleonight tour! My daughters were super enthusiastic. The guides were super kind and professional. Angelo and Rosanna thank you for your work. Super suggested.

Stunning and super romantic little town. You can easily get off your mobile phone GPS/ Google maps and get lost in its cozy, tiny and utterly romantic streets!! And Christmas time is even more unique and beautiful!

Such a fascinating place to visit. Make sure you go to the crypt and tour the excavation site, where you can see part of an old Roman road. Also some beautiful mosaic floor that they have excavated.

A gorgeous castle! Castel del Monte is super unique and just stunning to see and visit! The castle has been built with various materials, of which sadly enough only few can be seen. The views that you can experience are amazing. Sadly you now have to pay for parking 5€ for a car and if you want to take the bus up to the castle this is another 2€ per person…

Basilica is free of charge and only entry to the tower costs 5€. There are about 298 stairs to climb to reach the peak (59 m). Unfortunately you cannot go outside and it is hard to take a good photo beacues of the nets that are installed in the windows, but still it is worthy as from up there you can see the whole castle and the see and it was magical for me. The entrance to the basilica is from the underground. There are nice frescoes in the crypt, but if you want to switch on the light to see them you must pay. The basilica made a huge impression on me. I have never seen a church located so close to the see. I really recommend to visit Trani and basilica.

This was the most important place for me to see whilst on our two week vacation to Italy. I cannot put into words how simple and beautiful the cave is. When we arrived there was a mass in progress so I didn’t get any pictures of the cave itself unfortunately. The little village is like something from a fairytale.It was a little difficult to get to Monte Sant’Angelo from Foggia but we just had to visit this beautiful church.

(Translated by Google) The Torre del Ponte in Peschici is a wonderful historic structure that marks the entrance to the charming medieval village of Peschici, in Puglia. This tower is an authentic architectural jewel that adds a touch of majesty and charm to the entrance to the village. The Bridge Tower, with its imposing presence, evokes the atmosphere of bygone eras and transports visitors on a journey through time. Its construction dates back to the medieval period and, over the centuries, it has maintained its original structure, becoming a historical icon of the place. The tower is strategically positioned right at the entrance to the medieval village of Peschici and offers a spectacular panoramic view of the coast and the Adriatic Sea. Its imposing stone walls, watchtower and drawbridge (from which its name derives) create a breathtaking image that captures the attention of anyone approaching Peschici. The Torre del Ponte is an essential reference point for visitors wishing to explore the medieval village, as it marks the beginning of a unique experience. Crossing the drawbridge and entering the ancient city gates makes you feel as if you are entering an enchanted world of narrow cobbled streets, white stone houses and picturesque views. During my stay in Peschici, I spent time admiring this magnificent tower and photographing it from every possible angle. It is a true masterpiece of medieval architecture and adds a touch of magic to the whole experience of visiting Peschici. In short, the Torre del Ponte in Peschici is much more than a simple access point to the medieval village; it is a symbol of history, beauty and authenticity that warmly welcomes you into the wonderful experience that is Peschici.

One of our dream pilgrimage destinations fulfilled. It was a long trip coming from the Philippines then Germany and Austria. Stayed in a hotel overnight in Foggia before taking the bus to San Giovanni Rotondo. Well worth the trip. St. Padre Pio pray for us.

Very beautiful lake that is about 120 km away from. The lake offers a lot and satisfys all tastes. You can lay back and enjoy nature, try their trails, swim in the lake, or just do pedaling in the lake. The part we sat in was mainly occupied by locals, which even made it more fun and exposed to the simplicity of life locals live. There are a few cafes & restaurants here and there but with not many options and unfortunately dine in restaurants open only at a few designated hours. It was worth the visit.

It’s nice to come back to the hometown and appreciate the slowly growing and improving as an Italian burocrazie are specialists. This is one of the most beautiful places to visit. Very suggestive.

OMG, one of the most beautiful locations in the Abruzzo, totally worth the visit! We parked our car halfway down, and hiked up the rocky trail leading up to Calascio, as I didn't want to drive our car up the narrow road. From the commune to the castle is not a hard hike at all, and they even have a bridge going to the castle up top. However, the rocky trail up to Calascio requires shoes with good tread/support, and hikers need to take their time going up and down, as it is very easy to slip on loose stones. Take a hiking stick if you can. We didn't slip, but witnessed several people slipping and sliding as they were coming down.

Perfect place to stay and very friendly host.

Amazing

Beautiful basilica perched high on a hill. The importance is profound as it is the home of the birthplace of Mary, brought here by the crusaders. The reverence with which visitors enter the chambers is amazing. What a wonderful place to visit, and quite serendipitous on our part as it was an unplanned stop. Definitely worth seeing.

Amazing experience. My tour guide, Michele, was very knowledgeable and painted a vivid picture of the discovery of the caves. His English is great and learning about the formations was really interesting. It was a magical experience and this has been my favorite experience in Italy, maybe even my life. These caves should be one of the natural wonders in the world. Also, the surrounding town is beautiful, you can take a nice stroll alongside the river. Try the dishes with truffles in them! Also, vincisgrassi (the regional version of lasagne) is delicious. The locals are so friendly, but some of them don’t speak English so it’s a great opportunity to practice your Italian! My heart is still in the mountains there. P.S. if you try to get to the Valadier Temple (Tempio del Valadier) the google map location for it is not accurate for the start of the trailhead. You will have to go about double the distance from the caves than what it says (the location of the cave on the side of the mountain). It will be on the right side of the road and about 800 meters from the caves. It is walkable, but a rather long walk on the side of the road to get to the starting point. But, it is worth it!

Just one word- Amazing. it is out of main highways , but must to visit. is one of the most important centers of the Italian Renaissance, whose architectural legacy it still fully preserves (is UNESCO World Heritage Site). It is home to one of the oldest and most important universities in Europe, founded in 1506.

This place is well worth a visit if you are in the area. You can wander around in the walled town for free. The castle itself is 10 euros and a walk along a bit of the castle wall for 2 euros. Both are worth doing. National Trust would charge 20 quid for the castle in the UK. The bit of wall was short but the views are stunning. It's a big tourist draw so bars and restaurants are a bit more expensive than the norm in the area but some nice places to eat or have an ice cream. We went late may. I would guess it will be crowded in peak season.

The Aquarium of Cattolica is an amazing place to visit! It’s well-maintained, with a fantastic variety of marine life beautifully displayed. The exhibits are educational and engaging for all ages, making it perfect for families. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, enhancing the experience with interesting facts and care. The facility is clean and easy to explore, with plenty of interactive areas for kids. Highly recommend for a fun and educational day out!

A small old town at the bottom of a fortress, which invites to exploration. Great view around most of the town. A short hike to the fortress itself is rewarding as the fortress is also big and has many floors, information and weapons from different eras on display. I recommend going there👍 On top of the fortress theres a stunning view around the area🙂

The miniatures itselves are good for Italians or people who know Italy a lot. However, all the attractions around are splendid for children - they are all included in entrance fee and thanks to their high frequency of operation there were only short queues. I highly recommend with children up to 10-12 years.

I visited Mirabilandia in Emilia-Romagna with friends/family and had a fantastic time overall. The park is huge, well-organized, and offers a wide range of attractions for all ages — from adrenaline-pumping roller coasters to family-friendly shows and water rides. 👍 What I liked: • Katun and iSpeed are must-rides if you love thrill coasters — fast, smooth, and exciting! • The water park (Mirabeach) is a great bonus, especially during hot summer days. • Cleanliness: The park is generally clean and well-maintained. • Variety: There’s a good mix of rides, shows, and food options. • Parking is spacious and easy to navigate. 👎 What could be better: • Waiting times: Lines can get quite long during peak hours — a Fast Pass is recommended. • Food prices are high and the quality is average. • Some areas could use a refresh or renovation. • Limited shade in some zones, so bring sunscreen and a hat. 📝 Tip: Try to arrive early and head straight to the most popular rides first (Katun, iSpeed, Divertical). Also, booking tickets online in advance can save you time and money.

One of the most important Italian museum and the best experience I’ve ever had. Because of when I visited, I was fortunate enough to have the museum all to myself - which was surreal. Their permanent collection is beautiful, and the stories behind some of their pieces are extraordinary. Staff are all incredibly kind and knowledgeable, and not only great professionals, but amazing humans. I got to hear the origin story of the building, among many others which contributed to what it is today. The building although very old, is incredibly well kept, and the interior is a tasteful modern, which still does well to emphasise the authentic architectural identity of the museum. The place is squeaky clean all around, and overall just very calm and pleasant to be in. As always, there is a discount for students. After such a wonderful experience, I’m definitely looking forward to coming back in spring for their yearly special exhibition - which will host over three hundred paintings from the greatest artists of all time!

The basilica was one of the reasons we traveled to Ravenna and the church is breathtakingly beautiful!!! It's a different kind of art that has been applied here. The mosaic stones were used perfectly and we couldn't stop being amazed. Everyone should have seen this church... words cannot describe it! We were impressed and would visit the church every time!

We took a day trip to Padova from Ferrara. We decided to take it easy just wander round the town looking at the architecture eating and drinking etc! The one place we did actually visit was the Basilica of St Anthony and it was stunning. It's hard to describe in words the majesty of the church. It is one of the most stunning churches I have visited. Was rather amused at them charging for the toilet! Definitely worth a visit.
