Move along

We had booked a tour in French, but we were told it would be in Italian because we needed to be 4; we were 4 French in the group, so we should have had a tour in French. We asked the guide to speak slowly, but that was not the case. After 1 hour, we lost interest, so the service was poor, and the tour was conducted by Alesia, who was charming.

Give this a miss

It was only a 2 hour tour. Bari is a fabulous town ... no so much the guide. There were approx 15 people in the group, some walking faster than others. Anna was too busy talking with the people at the front to tell us about the town well, and not once checking to see where everyone was until everyone caught up at certain stops. The next day, we walked around Bari on our own (a very small town) and came across many interesting and historical places that she did not include.

Tour guide is relatively new to the job. We were surprised there was no general info about Bari. Also, we passed some major Roman ruins, but there was no explanation at all. The young guide is friendly but the tour felt very basic.

This was a comprehensive...

This was a comprehensive walking tour of Bari. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and very passionate about sharing information about Bari. She was able to communicate fluently in English. We were able to see all the sights and learn about them . The food tasting ( focaccia Barese) was an amazing treat during the tour. The only thing she could probably adjust was to walk a little bit slower because not everyone can walk the same speed as her especially on the busiest streets. We also had a hard time finding the meeting spot. The address mentioned on the meeting point was confusing. We almost missed the tour in spite of being in the vicinity 30 minutes before the start of the tour.

Operator response

Dear Vera, We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed discovering Bari with our guide and appreciated her knowledge, passion, and English-speaking skills. We're also glad that the focaccia tasting was a memorable part of the experience. We appreciate your suggestions regarding the walking pace and the meeting point instructions and will review both with our team. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to welcome you back to Bari soon!
