Requesting WWII sites information

Im planning a trip to Italy next month. I would like to know if someone know someone who can drive me from Bari to Alberobello. Thank you in advance.

My family and I (3 people in total) are flying into Rome on the evening of July 28. From there, we will be spending all of the 29th in Rome and then driving down south in the evening. We will be spending 2 days on Amalfi Coast and eventually making our drive to Puglia on July 31. We have a masseria booked near the town of Grottaglie from the 31st until August 6 (a beautiful but isolated masseria that we stayed at before Covid but it's pretty far from the major cities). However, despite the beauty that our stay offers, what is worrying us is that we have already visited the main attractions and towns near our masseria on our trip to Puglia pre-Covid). On our last trip we visited:

- Lecce, Nardo, Taranto

- Ostuni

- Matera

- Alberobello

- Bari

We have included Monopoli and Brindisi in our itinerary as of yet. We would love to explore new places and towns that we have not seen before. Please give us any recommendations where we should go and what to include on our itinerary. Would love if anyone could share any hidden gems around our location. We would also appreciate if anyone can share beautiful beaches around the region.

Thank you in advance!

My husband and I are planning a car trip along the Adriatic Coast later this fall. We will fly to Brindisi and stay in or near Lecce for a few days. I'd like to visit Ostuni, Matera (a bit out of the way, I know), Bari, Vieste, Urbino, Ravenna and end in Milano.

First, is this too busy of a trip? We will have approx 16 days but we like to travel slowly.

Second, is the Vieste to Urbino drive too long of a stretch? Should we stop along the coast somewhere? Any recommendations?

Finally, any B&B, vacation rental, hotel or agriturismo recommendations along in or near these cities be greatly appreciated.

I found the viaggiareinpuglia.com website and a couple other sites but would love to hear your recommendations.

I’m thinking of Sicily for a September holiday. I would choose two different places. Don’t have a particular time limit. I would like to see the main historical sites, but I don’t particularly want to hire a car alone. Are join day trips available , or can I get to these sites on my own( public transport) ?

I would certainly like to stay in Palermo, the second place? I have heard that Palermo has many beggars and wandering migrants sleeping rough. As a single lady, where would be the best area to stay but not be secluded/ cut off , as I love trying out restaurants. I love a nice pool too.

A lot of questions, sorry. Thank you.

What is the situation at the moment when travelling to Sicily Palermo airport from the UK and back for a holiday. For fully vaccinated people what else do they need to do. Is the process easy. I have looked on many sites with regards to tests and it's mind boggling. Also I have read about a free test centre in Palermo airport. I am hoping to book a week's trip to Trapani to visit friends. Getting the tests before departure and when you come back especially with early morning flights seems so complicated. Has anyone done this trip.

Hi guys

I need help to get my itinerary together!!!

Flying into Napoli, have two weeks, want to see Sicily and Puglia region especially Lecce

Please advise, I was going to take a train all down Cliento coast with stop offs at stay overs but now considering much more to see in Sicily! I’ve see Napoli and Amalfi coast, but would like to get Paestum and perhaps a quick visit to puglia...

Early stages of planning a 2 to 3 week trip around Sicily. Will finish along the east coast and fly out of Catania. I am thinking two to three days each for Syracuse and Catania with one day trip to Taormina from Catania. Am I being fair, reasonable in my expectations? A little bird tells me that I should spend more time in Taormina (which would likely be at the expense of time in Catania.) Interests are historical/artistic more than beach/landscape. Would also welcome recommendations on places to stay - convenient with character as we will not be hiring a car.

We are looking at taking a trip to Italy in October. This will be our first trip as new parents without a baby and we are 100% interested in relaxing, taking our time walking pretty streets, eating delicious food, and drinking even more delicious wine. If we don't do a single museum or go to any popular tourist sites- fine by us! We are wanting to go somewhere with comfortable weather- not too warm, not too cold, but maybe cool enough for a light jacket in the evenings. We were last in Italy (Puglia) for our babymoon in March 2020 when everything went nuts there and our trip was less enjoyed, as a result.

I appreciate any and all help.

Hi! I'm planning on doing a long holiday in Italy from the end of September until November. I will be doing most of my transport via public transport, but biking/hiking or renting a car every now and then might be an option too.

What I'm currently thinking about:

- Enter sicily by train, hop off on the east coast. Visit Taormina, Catania, Siracusa, and possibly Ragusa as main sites. 5 days?

- Take the ferry from either Pozzallo or Augusta to Malta

- Spend about a week on Malta

- Take the ferry back, see (possibly Ragusa here) Valle dei Templi, and the north and west of sicily. About 10 days?

- Take the ferry from Palermo to Cagliari

- Spend about two weeks on Sardinia (not sure what places yet)

- take the ferry from Porto Torres to Barcelona

Is this a feasibily itinerary? The suggested staying times for these places seem to be all over the place (e.g. 5 days enough for Sicily, two weeks in Malta) so I'm wondering if I'm taking it easy enough or if I could include Amalfi for example. Is two weeks in Sicily enough if I go by public transport? I want to see the main sites and take some relaxed days off too. I don't need to spend days in every town exploring every alley.

I plan on staying in hostels and cheap hotel rooms mostly. I can also bring camping gear but I'm not entirely sure if it's worth it as I think a lot of campings will already be closed in October. I don't particularly have a set budget but I prefer to spend my cash on good food and perhaps some guides. I don't have a need for luxury hotels or driving a car everywhere.

Hello we are planning a drive from Taormina to Palermo in a few days and would like to make a full day trip out of it by stopping at sites on the way. Do you have any recommendations or a recommended tour route for this trip?
