The 15 Best Ostuni Tours: The White City

18 reviewed

Ostuni glows white on its hill above the olive plain, a maze of lime-washed lanes with the Adriatic in the distance. Here are the best ways to see it: guided old-town walks, olive-oil tastings and Itria Valley loops that fold it in, with durations, group sizes and prices.

1.Itria Valley: Polignano, Ostuni, and Locorotondo, from Bari

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 502 reviews · 7.5 - 10 hours · from $71Our pick

A smooth day trip from Bari through Polignano a Mare, Ostuni, and Locorotondo in Apulia’s Itria Valley—AC bus, self-guided walks, real value.

“Very easy day with three different spots. The pick up location was easy to find. No traffic and excellent ride and service by driver Nuzzio, very good driver, professional and trustful. The pick up stops/parking are easy to find back and good explanation from the driver as regards the logistics. I can fully recommend this tour. Actually, you see a lot in a day without any hassle driving, parking and so on. I really enjoyed my time over there. Distances, by the way, are not that long so it makes the day easier.”

Day trip from Bari to Polignano, Ostuni, and Locorotondo with free-entry stops, air-conditioned transport, and self-guided walks.

“This is essentially a self guided tour. There is no guide. You will be given a digital itinerary with links to Google map navigation to visit places of interest at these 3 destinations. Make sure that you know how to get back to the bus at the appointed time. There is a Google map link to the bus parking. All 3 destinations are very beautiful. The only drawback is that time is limited at each place.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.1 · 6 reviews · 3 hours · from $88

Boho-style picnic in an Apulian olive grove near Ostuni and Brindisi, with organic local food, hammocks, and games for 3 hours.

“Deze excursie voldeed in zijn geheel niet aan de verwachtingen. De omschrijving in de app komt op punten niet overeen met wat je krijgt aangeboden. Geen hangmatten, geen wijn slechts een flesje water, een zeer karig plankje met wat vleeswaren en zoals vermeld staat in de omschrijving zou er ook nog aanvullend een lunch worden aangeboden. Ook dit was niet het geval. We hebben de experience dan ook eerder afgebroken. Zonde van je geld en kostbare tijd als je op vakantie bent.”
