Itinerary
Experience Bari like a local on our Street Food Tour, discovering authentic flavors and stories as you explore the city’s culinary gems with a local guide. Our tour starts from Piazza dell'Odegitria, inside Bari Vecchia, the city's historic centre. Your local expert will be waiting for you at the palms near the Cathedral's front door. Let's the tour begin!
As we pass near the Cathedral of San Sabino, we’ll enjoy our first tasting: focaccia barese, Bari’s most iconic street food. Freshly baked, crispy on the outside and soft inside, it’s topped with cherry tomatoes and olives and perfectly represents the city’s simple, flavorful cuisine.
Continuing through the historic streets and passing close to the Museo Civico di Bari, we’ll stop for a hot, freshly made panzerotto. Golden and bubbling, with a classic tomato and mozzarella filling, this beloved snack is a true symbol of Bari’s everyday food culture.
Strolling along Corso Vittorio Emanuele, we’ll savor an authentic octopus sandwich. Prepared according to local tradition, it offers a bold taste of the sea and reflects Bari’s strong connection to the Adriatic and its fishing heritage.
Near the Norman–Swabian Castle, we’ll conclude the tour with a delicious artisanal ice cream, the perfect refreshing treat to enjoy as we wander through the warm streets and bring our culinary journey through Bari to a sweet end.

5A Day in Bari
Giuseppe was great. He gave us a tour of the interesting spots in Bari as well as food. It would be helpful if the company provided info for parking 24 hrs prior to the tour. Also, try and include the assassins pasta dish in the tour

About Bari
Bari is the port city of Puglia on the Adriatic, with a maze-like old town, a medieval basilica holding the relics of St Nicholas and a long seafront.
Bari's old town, Bari Vecchia, is a tangle of white lanes and tiny squares on a peninsula pointing into the Adriatic, and many of its streets feel more like shared courtyards. The Basilica of San Nicola, begun in 1087 to house the relics of St Nicholas, draws both Catholic and Orthodox pilgrims, and the cathedral and the Swabian castle stand close by.
Top-ranked sights in Bari: Swabian Castle (Castello Svevo), Trulli of Alberobello World Heritage Site (Trulli di Alberobello), Piazza del Ferrarese.
