We had another great tour with Valeria, this time in Ostuni! She was so patient with us as we got lost on our way to finding her, (LOL) and then showed us around this beautiful city with great knowledge and passion. We didn’t want to leave once the tour was over, so Valeria showed us her favorite places to get dinner and drinks. What a magical time it was. Treat yourself to a tour with Valeria today! Buon viaggio!

We saw the two churches in a hurry and then our host disappeared. Nobody was there to open the door at the museum, even upon appointment. Rather visit Sassi at your iwn pace and get tickets as you arrive at the location. Not worth to buy the pass.
