1Day 5: Alberobello and Polignano a Mare – Trulli and the Adriatic Coast
Your final day takes you to Puglia, a region famous for its trulli, unique whitewashed stone huts with conical roofs. Head to Alberobello, a small town known for having the highest concentration of these distinctive dwellings. Wander through the Rione Monti district, where clusters of trulli line the narrow streets, and visit Trullo Sovrano, the largest trullo in town, which has been turned into a museum.
After exploring Alberobello, continue to the coastal town of Polignano a Mare, perched on cliffs overlooking the Adriatic Sea. Famous for its dramatic scenery and crystal-clear waters, Polignano is the perfect spot to end your Southern Italian road trip. Spend the afternoon swimming in the sea, exploring the town’s sea caves, or simply enjoying a gelato in one of the cliffside cafés.
As the sun sets on your journey, savor a seafood dinner at a local restaurant, celebrating the flavors and beauty of Southern Italy.
