When is the best time to fly to Bari?

Start your visit by exploring Old Bari with its maze of narrow streets and two main squares, Piazza Mercantile and Piazze Ferrarese. It is also possible to walk along the top of the remaining defensive walls, which give a good view across the city. The waterfront also provides an interesting stroll as the old town lies between two working harbours.
Frederick III’s Svevo Castle is open to the public and is also a gallery for temporary art exhibitions. Opera lovers will find that Bari has one of Italy’s grandest opera houses, The Petruzzelli Theatre. The newer centre of the city has plenty of good value Italian restaurants and the old town squares have bars where you can enjoy an al fresco drink or meal. There is a large shopping mall with both international and local shops, many focusing on high end fashion and good quality tailoring. If you wish to explore further afield you will find a landscape of cultivated fields and deep valleys dotted with the unique trulli homes, which have distinctive grey conical roofs. Water lovers will find safe beaches with white sand and clear waters.
