| Puglia (or Apulia as it is also called), is the boot heel of Italy and a food and wine lover's paradise!
A hidden region, almost unknown to tourists…an authentic retreat, very Italian with an unspoilt coastline
(with some of the cleanest beaches and water in the Mediterranean) and a landscape peppered by hillside villages,
ancient ruins, castles and churches.
Unique to Puglia, ‘trulli’ are circular buildings, built of dry stone with thick solid walls and conical roofs, these are
scattered in picturesque disorder around the countryside of the awe-inspiring ‘Itria valley’ which is a World Heritage site.
Puglia produces the largest amount of olive oil in Italy and over 1/3 of the wine drunk in Eurpoe comes from this wonderful
region. Sea-food lovers will be in their element too…..a huge proportion of Italy's fish is caught off the extensive Apulian coast,
so it is available in abundance and at a better price than most other places in Europe.
Puglia offers its visitors a unique, authentic and unforgettable experience in a charming and unspoilt region of Italy.
