Cosmopolitan cool in a Mediterranean climate, Bari has blossomed in recent years to become one of the most prosperous cities in Southern Italy. This historic city oozes edgy charisma, while also maintaining the distinctly Italian charm of the ‘Old Town’ section of the city...
For many years, Bari was unknown and unloved by many. But, in the opinion of the Italians, without good reason. So the city was cleaned up and now boasts a bustling centre with lots of new restaurants and bars and intensive nightlife. Those looking to enjoy a quiet sun-filled holiday (full of history!) need look no further than Apulia (better known as Puglia). You will find fabulous beaches that are among the cleanest in Europe on both sides of the heel of the boot. Bari is also surrounded by picturesque villages and small towns, where you can relax and enjoy ‘la dolce vita’.
