Opera at Teatro Petruzzelli with Bari Walking Tour and Italian Aperitif
Between 2pm and 3pm you will be picked up by the guide from your hotel in one of the following cities:
Bari, Monopoli, Alberobello, Conversano, Polignano, Giovinazzo.
We suggest you to have a relaxing morning, since you will return at around midnight and have an umbrella with you.
The private transportation can last from 1 to 1.5 hour depending on traffic and distance from your accommodation.
In Bari a walking guided tour (1.5-hour) through the thousand-year old "Bari Vecchia" will give you an idea of the complicated history in this place from Middle Ages to the present among the Castle and two religious institutions, the Saint Nicholas Basilica and the Cathedral.
An Italian aperitif with olives, cheese, ham and a drink will precede the entrance in one of the most beautiful theaters in Italy: Teatro Petruzzelli.
At around 8pm you will enter in the theater and take one of the first balcony seat (gradinata 3° ordine) to attend the scheduled Opera:
