Alberobello is a lovely town in Puglia which, while being a World Heritage site preserving Trulli architecture in a theme park like environment, also conveys a sense of vibrant Southern Italian life. Worth adding to your exploration of Puglia even if just for a day visit.

Antica Salumeria del Corso

Reviewed By alexbaumann - Zurich, Switzerland

We were given a food and wine tasting from the Salento region. The antipasti, salami, prosciutto and various kinds of cheeses were delicious. The owner is very kind and forthcoming. The only thing they could improve on is the presentation: Everything was served in plastic dishes; maybe due to COVID-19.

Reviewed By MorrisMatthew - Lancaster, United States

We had a tour of the museum and a wine tasting following the tour. We were a group of about 45 people and they managed the testing in fun and efficient manner. The museum does a great job of explaining the history behind the local structures and other interesting facts about he area and its customs.

Parrocchia Sant'Antonio di Padova

Reviewed By RayV388

When one has been around the village and appreciated the distinct character of the place, one is not all that impressed that they managed to fit out a church too. It only proves that the skill of building the trulli had been so well mastered, that bigger projects were accomplished. The edifice of the church is more massive than the houses and judging by the structure it is a wholesome piece of construction. Other than that the interior is just "churchy".

Centro Storico

Reviewed By RhinoLondon_England - Ottery St. Mary, United Kingdom

The chief draw is many trulli houses that are spread over a considerable area. The largest is to the southerly side of the principal road, Largo Martellotta, and provides the main tourist attraction with many souvenir shops and the like. The area to the north of Largo Martellotta seems to have rather more trulli houses in general occupation- and rather less tourists. Well worth a visit.

Parrocchia Santuario  Basilica S.S. Cosma E Damiano

Reviewed By KodoDrummer - Yekaterinburg, Russia

Rich in simplistic beauty. Nice architecture on the outside. Being a relatively small community, the interior is not overly ornate. I liked the statues of Cosma and Damiano (maybe because I’m partial to those shades of blue and green), whom after the Basilica was named to honour. Being a house of God, I’ll rate it as Excellent.
