Grotte di Castellana, located 40km southeast of Bari, is Italy's longest natural subterranean network. Discovered in 1938, the cave system features a 3.2KM-long and 230-foot deep tour route with stunning limestone formations such as stalactites and stalagmites. The highlight is the Grotta Bianca (White Grotto), adorned with delicate stalactites.
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.

You are not allowed to take pictures beyond a certain point. For me, the most amazing caves I ever saw. The experience is totally worth it. The entire area around is also very nice. It's not too slippery, not too cold. The guides are nice, tours are available in many languages. Booking in advance is recommended

It was like Cheddar Gorge in England, on steroids. Definitely worth a visit. You can only take photos in the first cave which was the least amazing, because of a risk of flash damaging natural fungi etc. This was the least amazing cave. I went on an arranged tour.

Nice cave but for us the experience was totally ruined by the 'can't be bothered' miserable attitude of the staff. One in the front and one in the back making sure that nobody took a surreptitious photograph, apparently, we were told because of the copyright of the company. I don't think you can copyright caves. More to do with the guards wanting to get through as quickly as possible. We were put in a massive group of around 100. All different nationalities, with an 'English Speaking' guide, although I'm English and I was picking up maybe 3 words of each sentence it was that bad. I could hardly see above people's heads we were so tightly packed and moving so quickly. No time to stop and admire the cave .. just rushed through like cattle. Twice we passed small Italian groups, all ambling along taking flash photos and video, yet we were rushed through so fast on the uneven floors, most of it badly lit. I'm surprised nobody fell and had an accident. We've been in lots of caves. Usually you go through alone, with headsets explaining the system. Some have music and light shows, making it very dramatic. This one is just boring. Not worth €18 per person. Total rip off.

Great experience! The 50 min tour suitable for small kids (4 & 6 y.o. enjoyed it). A bit to brief for adults/teenagers. During a 1km walk you're going to see a few amazing stone formations, hear a bit of history about the caves, and have a chance to imagine how this place looked like before it was turned into a tourist attraction. No need for any special shoes or outfits - a jacket and a pair of sneakers would do.

Fantastic caves, but the experience is totally spoiled by the way it's run. It started badly when we were charged to park out car in a large car park in the village centre not far from the caves. But since the caves are the only attraction in town, the cost of parking ought to be included in the ticket price for visiting the cave. After buying our tickets, we were shown to the "planetarium" which is a miniature imax-style surround cinema where they played an animated film about possible alien life on other planets. But nobody could see it. The projector was so feeble that it took a couple of minutes of dark adaptation to seven see the image. And then people kept opening the door, causing bright sunshine to flood in and ruin the dark adaptation. They also give you pretty terrible 3D glasses that make the picture even dimmer. I guess this planetarium show is there to stop kids getting bored between tours of the caves, and it's a nice idea in principle. But the fact that they didn't invest in a decent projector system and didn't fit a light-proof entry system means it actually irritating for a lot of people. I heard lots of murmurings of "well that's 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back" upon leaving. But my biggest gripe of all is the actual cave tour itself. Not only do they try to stop you from taking photos beyond the first cave, but there's no mention of this at all before you buy your tickets. I LOVE visiting caves and have visited hundreds of them over the years. This is the first time I've been prevented from taking photos. I asked one of the two ladies what the reasoning was, and she said "Because it's our copyright". Which is total nonsense. Nobody has copyright over things that they did not create. And caves are created by the action of water over millions of years, they aren't man-made! I ignored their protestations and continued to take plenty of photos. In the end they stopped trying to stop me. I later looked up what possible genuine reasons they might have, and it's to protect the rocks from the effects of flash. Well why isn't that a problem in any other cave anywhere else? In any case I was taking photos and videos using a phone and a GoPro. There was no flash involved. If they really have a problem with people bringing proper cameras with powerful flash, then they should just tell people that photos are okay as long as there is no flash. Another problem is with the way the tour is guided. The tour guide at the front made an effort for people to gather around her before speaking, but her very soft voice was impossible to hear, especially since some of the visitors had brought babies who were crying the whole way. Inside the caves all you could hear is the crying of babies. Many cave site tour operators get round this by using radio mics with speakers hidden behind rocks in the caves. That way the guide doesn't have to shout, and everyone can hear easily. But no, there was nothing like that here. In summary, my biggest gripe is about their ridiculous ban on photography. For some of us, taking photos of the spectacular rock formations is a big reason for visiting in the first place. Admittedly they do say "no photography" in the guide they give you, but you don't see that until after you've bought your ticket. Pretty nasty way to operate. There's no good reason for them to ban photography, especially if you're doing it without a flash. But if you're to afraid to stand up for yourself, enjoy some of mine.

Cool tourist attraction, but be sure to wear comfortable shoes with good grip — the caves are very slippery inside. The long tour was interesting, though I’d recommend the shorter 50-minute option.

Excellent visit to these extraordinary caves. Well worth a visit if you're in the area. A lot more F walking, but very safe to do so - and there's a lift to take you back to the surface!

(Translated by Google) The history of Carnival! When we talk about Carnival many think of Venice, Viareggio....but the most historic and probably eventful one is Putignano! In fact, everything has been repeated every year since 1394! In that distant period, Puglia suffered frequent attacks from the Saracens and the knights of Malta who governed these territories decided to protect all the assets from looting, including the relics of Saint Stephen, which were thus transferred from the city of Monopoli to Putignano! And during this transfer all the farmers left their work in the fields to join the procession, dancing, singing and acting, thus progressively transforming an event which then became ritual and in the last century was enriched with the mastery of the local artisans by introducing the floats with their respective choreographies! Some even place the origins of the event in the cult of the god Dionysius at the time of Magna Graecia! Today the event has become an object of interest for tens of thousands of tourists who for over a month can participate in the numerous events that follow one another for over a month and end with Shrove Tuesday! Tickets have variable costs depending on the day and if purchased online or at the box office, between €12 and €18 and reduced for children between 11-14 years. A subscription for the entire period of the event is also possible! If you come by car you can park 5 -10 minutes walk from the entrances located around the historic center! Along the circular route of the floats, 3 stages are set up for the various shows and concerts. There is no shortage of street food trucks! Well organised (Original) La storia del Carnevale! Quando si parla del Carnevale molti pensano a Venezia, Viareggio....ma quello più storico e probabilmente ricco di eventi è proprio quello di Putignano! Addirittura il tutto si ripete ogni anno dal 1394! In quel lontano periodo la Puglia subiva frequenti assalti dai Saraceni e I cavalieri di Malta che governavano questi territori decisero di mettere al riparo dai saccheggi tutti i beni, tra cui le reliquie di Santo Stefano, che furono così trasferite dalla città di Monopoli a Putignano! E durante questo trasferimento tutti i contadini lasciarono il lavoro nei campi per accodarsi al corteo, ballando, cantando e recitando, così trasformando progressivamente un evento che poi divenne rituale e nell' ultimo secolo fu arricchito con la maestria degli artigiani del territorio introducendo i carri con le rispettive coreografie! Alcuni addirittura collocano le origini dell' evento al culto del dio Dionisio all' epoca della magna Grecia! Oggi la manifestazione è diventata oggetto di interesse per decine di migliaia di turisti che per oltre un mese possono partecipare ai numerosi eventi che si susseguono per oltre un mese e si concludono con il martedì grasso! I biglietti hanno costi variabili a seconda del giorno e se presi online o al botteghino, tra 12 e 18€ e ridotti per ragazzi tra 11-14 anni. È possibile anche abbonamento per l'intero periodo della manifestazione! Se si viene in auto si parcheggia a 5 -10 minuti a piedi dagli ingressi dislocati intorno al centro storico! Lungo il percorso circolare dei carri sono allestiti ben 3 palchi per i vari spettacoli e concerti. Non mancano i numerosi furgoni per street food! Ben organizzato

(Translated by Google) The Putignano Carnival is a truly beautiful event, well worth seeing. I was there for the second time this year (2025), and the first in the tragic 2020, just moments before we were imprisoned in our own homeland due to the well-known events. You pay a ticket to access the parade area, a reasonable amount—10 euros, I think—but in any case, money well spent. The only advice I can give is to prepare for a tour de force with a backpack and everything you need, comfortable shoes, and possibly an umbrella and raincoat. However, if it rains, the floats will obviously not be out until the rain stops and/or a date yet to be determined. (Original) Il carnevale di Putignano è una manifestazione davvero bella e meritevole di essere vista, ci sono stato la seconda volta quest'anno (2025), e la prima nel tragico 2020, giusto un attimo prima che ci rendessero prigionieri in casa nostra per le note vicende. Si paga il biglietto per l'accesso all'area della sfilata dei carri, una cifra congrua, mi pare 10 euro, in ogni caso soldi ben spesi. L'unico consiglio che posso dare è quello di prepararsi a un tour de force con zainetto e tutto il necessario, scarpe comode, eventuali ombrelli e impermeabili, ma se dovesse piovere naturalmente i carri non uscirebbero fino al termine della pioggia e/o a data da definire.

(Translated by Google) Extremely high price for five-six floats when the carnival should be FREE At the entrance they even took a can of Coca-Cola from my backpack, telling me that only glasses were allowed inside so I had to stick to the "rules" but then I saw that the bars were giving them cans, clearly at high prices. Really shameful. (Original) Prezzo esageratamente alto per cinque-sei carri quando il carnevale dovrebbe essere LIBERO All’ingresso mi hanno addirittura tolto una lattina di cocacola dallo zaino dicendomi che dentro circolano solo bicchieri quindi ho dovuto attenermi alle “regole” ma poi i bar ho visto che le lattine le davano eccome, chiaramente a prezzi alti. Davvero vergognoso.
Davide — Google review
(Translated by Google) I hadn't been since entry was free, now with paid entry I must say that the organization of the event has improved a lot, the floats are all very beautiful, the only flaw is the price of 17/18 euros is a bit excessive (Original) Non andavo da quando l’entrata era gratuita, adesso con l’entrata a pagamento devo dire che l’organizzazione dell’evento è migliorata molto i carri sono tutti molto belli, unica pecca il prezzo 17/18 euro un po’ eccessivo
Davide D — Google review
(Translated by Google) 630th edition, which already makes an impression. On Saturday, February 17, the floats were themed around technology and media, including artificial intelligence. I never thought I'd go to a carnival to reflect but that's what happened. Clearly, all accompanied by the sausage sandwich, oh my goodness! (Original) 630esima edizione, il che fa gia' impressione cosi'. Sabato 17 febbraio i carri erano a tema tecnologia e media, inclusa l'intelligenza artificiale. Non avrei mai pensato di andare a un carnevale per riflettere ma e' cio' che' e' accaduto. Chiaramente, il tutto accompagnato dal panino con la salsiccia, mamma che buono!

Accogliente Dimora

4.6
(212)
Bed & breakfast
Accogliente Dimora is a cozy bed-and-breakfast located in the historical part of the city, offering unfussy quarters with complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi. The building is situated on the edge of the old town and provides a parking space within 200 meters. The host, Giuseppe, is known for his sincerity and delicious Italian breakfast. The place is spotlessly clean, peaceful, and comfortable.
Picked this one because it was fairly near Alberobello. Parking is a real challenge. Also, better for young people with good knees because of the 3 flights of stairs. The rooms were clean and felt save and comfortable.

(Translated by Google) A place that is not only beautiful but also cared for in a dedicated manner by its owner who, assisted by capable collaborators, enlivens the evenings with absolute dedication. Harmonious spaces and careful cuisine. Personally, I think GUAGLIÓ is a very well-kept place and the owner is a fabulous person who truly dedicates his work to customer satisfaction, looking for every detail that could be exceptional. In the kitchen it's difficult to say what's less good. Because from the appetizers to the desserts everything is delicious. The wait for the dishes is right because preparing everything at the moment is synonymous with quality which is difficult to reconcile with a dish that arrives at the table after 1 minute. Guaglió quality and courtesy entrusted to the care of a correct and kind person like Roberto. Well done (Original) Locale non solo bellissimo ma curato in maniera dedita dal suo titolare che coadiuvato da validi collaboratori allieta le serate con assoluta dedizione. Spazi armoniosi e cucina attenta. Personalmente ritengo il GUAGLIÓ un posto molto curato ed il proprietario persona favolosa che dedica davvero il suo lavoro alla soddisfazione del cliente ricercando ogni particolare che possa essere eccezionale. In cucina difficile dire cosa ci sia di meno buono. Perché a partire dagli antipasti fino ai dolci è tutto prelibato. L’attesa per i piatti è giusta perché preparare tutto al momento è sinonimo di qualità che mal si concilia con un piatto che giunge al tavolo dopo 1 minuto. Guaglió qualità e cortesia affidato alle cure di persona corretta e gentile come Roberto. Bravi

(Translated by Google) Evening with friends, all you can eat & drink, paella and sangria. Welcoming atmosphere with vintage furniture. Essential service. The fixed menu proposal was fully appreciated and welcomed in all its variety. To start, fritters, cold cuts, meatballs and a round of excellent pinsa. To follow, paella at will. When you think you are satisfied, you are served dessert. A fried apple tart with chantilly cream and berries. A delight that reminds you of grandma's fried apples.

(Translated by Google) Today 25th April we had lunch in this very nice restaurant discovered by chance, today the fixed menu which we chose was available as an option. I want to point out that today the menus were high everywhere and I was surprised by the price of this menu, which is honestly worth more than the price paid. Excellent welcome, very kind owner, generous portions, attention to detail and super good quality food. What can I say about the place... I was enchanted by the vintage style, so many cute, refined objects and so many flowers, I fell in love with the place. We will definitely be back soon, I recommend it. (Original) Oggi 25 aprile siamo stati a pranzo in questo ristorante molto carino scoperto per caso, oggi era previsto come opzione il menù fisso che noi abbiamo scelto. Ci tengo a precisare che oggi i menù erano alti ovunque e sono rimasta sorpresa dal prezzo di questo menù, che sinceramente vale più del prezzo pagato. Ottima accoglienza, proprietario gentilissimo, portate abbondanti, ben curate nei dettagli e cibo super buono di qualità . Che dire del locale.. Sono rimasta incantata per lo stile vintage, tanti oggetti carini, ricercati e tanti fiori, mi sono innamorata del posto. Ci ritorneremo sicuramente presto, lo consiglio.

(Translated by Google) A charming, shabby chic-style venue, offering delightful bistro cuisine that blends the flavors of international cuisine with local delicacies. The offerings are wide enough. The wait staff is courteous, never intrusive, and above all, they don't "recommend" dishes—the sole purpose of which is to maximize the host's profit, not the quality of the customer experience. Convincing in every way. For a refined clientele who appreciates a relaxed atmosphere. I've missed the brunch, but I'll do so soon. (Original) Un locale molto grazioso, shabby chic style, una cucina da bistrot molto gradevole che unisce il gusto della cucina internazionale con le eccellenze chilometro zero. Offerta sufficientemente ampia. Personale di sala cortese, mai invadente e soprattutto non "consiglia" di provare piatti - al solo scopo di massimizzare il profitto del host, non la qualità dell'esperienza del cliente. Convincente sotto tutti i punti di vista. Per una clientela raffinata che apprezza l'atmosfera rilassata. Mi manca di provare il brunch, lo farò presto.
Andrea B — Google review
(Translated by Google) The tranquil and relaxing atmosphere so characteristic of this place is actually a decoy. On Friday evening, September 5th, we dined here. There were three of us, and my mother, my sister, and I wanted to spend a quiet evening catching up and chatting. We had dined here a few times before, and the atmosphere was always extremely peaceful, with incredibly courteous and helpful staff, all accompanied by very high-quality food, much higher in quality than other places. However, on September 6th, something completely inconceivable happened, which made us decide to never set foot in Guagliò again. The place didn't have any windows that day; the interior and exterior were practically interconnected, and you could enter and exit from any point. You can imagine the structure as a sort of gazebo, where the indoor area (which is closed during the winter) would be the area under the gazebo, and the outdoor area would be a sort of garden with tables in the center. We were dining in the hypothetical outdoor area (the garden) in a completely tranquil atmosphere, when suddenly we heard a terrible din... children (there must have been about five) emerge from the hedges of the garden, screaming at the top of their lungs and running wildly between the tables. After being practically startled by the sudden screams of two of the five children, we watched them cross the entire restaurant from outside to inside, virtually undisturbed. We then saw these children linger near the restaurant, continuing to run through it, laughing blissfully for about ten minutes. I don't believe these children were the children of any of Guagliò's customers, as they didn't actually interact with any of the other customers. At a certain point, they moved so far away that they seemed to have disappeared... so we realized they were most likely coming from outside the premises. However, after having disappeared for about 20 minutes, they reappeared from the same hedge and repeated those sudden, ear-splitting shrieks, running back across the entire premises as if it were their playground. All this occurred with the total and utter indifference of the owner and his staff, who in fact seemed to act as if they hadn't even noticed them and that it was clearly perfectly legal and completely normal. In practice, people outside, perhaps even unknown to Guagliò (in this case, five children), can enter the premises undisturbed, where they can run and scream to their heart's content as if it were their playground. Given the more refined appearance of this place, its seemingly tranquil atmosphere, and its above-average standards, we never expected to witness something like this. We certainly don't go to places like this to find an uncomfortable environment with screaming children running wild among the tables. Ultimately, we may have been unlucky that night, but the staff's total indifference to such an event is inconceivable to us. That said, if anyone reading this is looking for a quiet place to spend the evening, we would advise against this place. Its apparent tranquil and relaxing atmosphere is actually just a decoy. We certainly won't be returning. Have a nice day! (Original) L'atmosfera di Tranquillità e Relax tipica di questo locale è in realtà uno specchio per le allodole. Il venerdì sera del 5 settembre abbiamo cenato presso questo locale. Eravamo in 3 e insieme a mia madre a mia sorella volevamo passare una serata tranquilla per rivederci e scambiare quattro chiacchiere. Avevamo già cenato in questo locale qualche altra volta e l'ambiente è sempre stato estremamente pacifico con un personale incredibilmente cortese e disponibile, il tutto accompagnato da cibo di una qualità molto alta e dagli standard decisamente più alti rispetto agli altri locali. Tuttavia il 6 settembre è accaduto qualcosa dal nostro punto di vista assolutamente inconcepibile che ci ha fatto prendere la decisione di non mettere mai più piede al Guagliò. Il locale quel giorno non aveva le "vetrate", l'ambiente interno e l'area esterna erano praticamente interconnesse e si poteva entrare e uscire da qualsiasi punto; si può immaginare la struttura come una sorta di gazebo dove l'area interna (che è chiusa durante l'inverno) sarebbe quella sotto al gazebo e l'area esterna, invece, quella dove si trova una sorta di giardino al centro del quale sono inseriti i tavolini. Stavamo dunque cenando nell'ipotetica area esterna (quella del giardino) in un clima di assoluta tranquillità, quando all'improvviso avvertiamo un terribile frastuono... dalle siepi del giardino spuntano dei bambini (dovevano essere circa 5) che strillano con tutta la loro forza e che corrono all'impazzata tra i tavoli. Dopo essere praticamente trasaliti a causa dello strillo improvviso di due dei 5 bambini, abbiamo osservato questi ultimi attraversare tutto il locale dall'esterno all'interno praticamente indisturbati. Successivamente abbiamo visto questi bambini trattenersi nelle vicinanze del locale, continuare ad attraversarlo correndo e ridendo beatamente per circa una decina di minuti Non credo che questi bambini fossero i figli di alcuni dei clienti del Guagliò, poichè di fatto essi non hanno interagito con nessuno della clientela. A un certo punto si sono allontanati tanto che sembravano essere scomparsi... abbiamo capito quindi che in tutta probabilità venivano dall'esterno del locale. Tuttavia dopo essersi allontanati per circa 20 minuti, ecco che rispuntano dalla stessa siepe e ripetono quegli strilli improvvisi (da vera e propria rottura dei timpani) riattraversando di corsa tutto il locale esterno/interno come se fosse il loro parco giochi. Tutto questo è avvenuto nella totale ed assoluta indifferenza del proprietario e del suo staff, che di fatto sembravano comportarsi come se non li avessero minimamente visti e che tutto ciò fosse evidentemente perfettamente lecito e assolutamente normale In pratica gente esterna e forse anche sconosciuta al Guagliò (in questo caso 5 bambini) possono introdursi indisturbati nel locale, luogo in cui possono correre e sbraitare a loro piacimento come se quest'ultimo fosse il loro parco giochi. Dato dunque l'aspetto più signorile di questo locale, la sua atmosfera apparentemente tranquilla e i suoi standard sopra la media, mai ci saremmo aspettati di poter assistere a qualcosa del genere. Per trovare un ambiente disagiato con bambini che strillano e imperversano tra i tavoli non ci dirigiamo certo in locali come questo. In definitiva potremmo anche essere stati sfortunati noi quella sera, tuttavia è inconcepibile per noi la totale ed assoluta indifferenza dello staff del locale al verificarsi di un evento del genere. Detto questo, se chi legge questo messaggio è alla ricerca di un luogo tranquillo per passare le serate ci sentiamo di sconsigliare questo posto, un locale la cui apparente atmosfera di tranquillità e di relax è in realtà solo uno specchio per le allodole, noi di certo non ci rimetteremo più piede. Buona Giornata

Deli
Located next to Barsento, the deli Cibària is conveniently situated and easy to find. This small establishment boasts a well-maintained interior with seven tables in total. The open kitchen provides a delightful view of the culinary process while labels adorn every corner. The staff is attentive, polite, and efficient in delivering quick service. Cibària offers a traditional local menu prepared with exceptional skill and presented at an affordable price point.
Good honest food at excellent prices. Service was excellent. Friendly. We hadn't realised that we had wandered in at the end of service, which we never normally do. They were more than accommodating. Excellent service. Amazing prices. Good food at a great value for money. Thank you so much.

Super cool gem! Passionate people with smiley attitude. Great welcoming, great service, great food with the civility of "mezze porzioni" choices too. Super happy and surely we'll be back. Thanks :)

Italian restaurant
The proprietor of a local Italian family-owned establishment, Braceria Pizzeria Il Rifugio dei Frati, received instructions to serve the Canadian guests whatever he desired, and they had a truly exceptional dining experience. The menu featured an array of delectable dishes, such as charcuterie platters, baked mozzarella, calamari, mussels, lamb and steak. The flavors were exquisite and the ingredients fresh.
🎶Food Glorious Food🎶 The owner was instructed by our local italian family to simply bring whatever he wish to have "the canadian" guests eat and BOY did we eat! The dishes were all fresh and the flavours were delightful. Everything from simple charcuterie, baked mozzarella and calamari to mussles, lamb and steak. We ate like kings and the owner was a delightfully charismatic host that broke into random song while raising a glass of prosecco with us to toast the evening. Thank you for a deliscious experience.

(Translated by Google) A former convent of cloistered nuns transformed into a quality restaurant. So don't think that it is a low-cost inn or tavern as the name "refuge" might suggest. The location and interior of the structure are very beautiful and well-kept. You eat very well. The prices are obviously high for the quality of the food and the care of the place. Very friendly and professional staff and owner. If you love peace and tranquility, the "refuge", despite its name, is not suitable as various parties are hosted, even with loud music. You can bring children. (Original) Un ex convento di monache di clausura trasformato in un ristorante di qualità. Perciò non si pensi che sia una locanda o un osteria a basso costo come il nome "rifugio" potrebbe far pensare. La location e gli interni della struttura sono molto belli e curati. Si mangia benissimo. I prezzi sono ovviamente alti per la qualità del cibo e la cura del posto. Personale e proprietario molto cortesi e professionali. Se si amano pace e tranquillità il "rifugio", a dispetto del nome, non è adatto poiché si ospitano feste varie anche con musica ad alto volume. Si possono portare i bambini.

(Translated by Google) I celebrated my baby's first birthday here, I had a great time, excellent food, outdoor place, kind and helpful waiters, delicious cake. In particular, I thank the girl who helped us create a menu tailored to our needs without making us spend a lot and with drinks included. Highly recommended. (Original) Ho festeggiato qui il primo compleanno del mio bimbo, mi sono trovata benissimo, cibo ottimo, posto all'aperto, camerieri gentili e disponibili, torta buonissima. In particolare ringrazio la ragazza che ci ha aiutato a fare un menù su misura per le nostre esigenze senza farci spendere molto e con bevande incluse. Consigliatissimo.
