- Bari - Departure from Piazza Eroi del Mare in Bari driving to Matera. The order of the visits in Matera and Alberobello could be reversed. - Matera - Matera, Basilicata’s jewel, may be the world’s third-longest continuously inhabited human settlement. Natural caves in the tufa limestone, exposed as the Gravina cut its gorge, attracted the first inhabitants perhaps 7000 years ago. More elaborate structures were built atop them. Today, looking across the gorge to Matera’s huddled sassi (cave dwellings) it seems you’ve been transported back to the ancient Holy Land. - Parco Naturale Regionale Terra delle Gravine - The driving route may vary depending on traffic conditions. The order of the visits in Matera and Alberobello could be reversed. - Alberobello - Unesco World Heritage Site Alberobello resembles an urban sprawl – for gnomes. The zona dei trulli on the westernmost of the town’s two hills is a dense mass of 1500 beehive-shaped houses, white-tipped as if dusted by snow. These drystone buildings are made from local limestone; none are older than the 14th century. - Bari - Trasferimento a bordo del minivan per rientrare al punto di partenza dove terminerà il tour.
