- Cattedrale di San Sabino - This cathedral serves as the seat of the Archbishop of Bari-Bitonto and is dedicated to Saint Sabinus, a bishop of Canosa, whose relics were relocated here in the 9th century. Here, you can admire the underground Roman walls known as Succorpo.
- Piazza del Ferrarese - Piazza Ferrarese has long been one of the gateways to the old town, with its narrow streets, alleys, and small openings stretching from Piazza Ferrarese - Piazza Mercantile to the Normanno-Svevo castle. Recent restorations, which included the square and surrounding buildings, revealed a section of the ancient Via Appia – Traiana, constructed by the Romans in the early second century A.D.
- Piazza Mercantile - This piazza has historically been the hub of commercial and administrative activities in the city, thanks to the city market (no longer located here) and the palazzo Sedile, a historical landmark of Bari City Hall. Today, it remains an essential gathering place for the people of Bari.

Fun and interesting tour in the old town of Bari - We had the best time on this tour with Anna. We went all over the old town of Bari and she was very informative and fun! The pasta making in a locals home was absolutely amazing. It was great getting to see first hand how they make pasta. My teenagers loved it and it tasted delicious! The end was great with gelato. Anna was a great guide!

Yummy and fun - Fun to learn about the city and kids had a good time making pastas. I would have liked to have had more than 5 minutes at the pasta street though.

Very nice tour - There were two of us and can highly recommend the rickshaw tour with pasta course. At the port there is a cheap parking (with parking meter). From there it is about 5 minutes on foot to the meeting point in the old town. Iris, our tour guide, drove us through the many small streets to the highlights of the old town and explained the history of the city.
The pasta course took place in a typical apartment of the old town and lasts about 20 min (incl. tasting and wine).
We loved the tour and strolled through the streets afterwards.

Very nice food rickshaw tour - We booked a rickshaw food tour and had Federica as our guide. She was great, her explanations were very interesting and the rickshaw ride was fun and unforgettable. The food was also very good and we can recommend Federica and the whole team from Velo. All of them were very friendly. I am sure I book again

Didn't get do pasta experience but was changed to street food tour and it was good - Carlotta did a great job of showing us around we needed some pointers.
Didn't get to do the pasta making because of Illness on there end so the tour was changed into the food street tour .
The food was ok and different that what we probably would have gotten so that was nice change of pace.
All and all it was a worthwhile thing.

Best way to see Bari in August heat. Federico was a rockstar!! - We had an amazing time with Federico. He was so passionate about history of Bari, easy going, a joy to be around. We started off with gelato to cool off then rode around sight seeing, it was a great way to see the city especially in this August heat. Our highlight was for sure making orecchiette with Carmela and got to taste her freshly made pasta mama Mia! Thank you for a wonderful time and make Bari memorable Federico!

Enjoyable way to see the City - On a scorching August day the Rickshaw tour was a perfect ( and coolest ) way to see old town Bari ! With the wonderful and sunny Anna leading the tour we were lucky enough to also have Vincenzo and Federica as our guides and very skilled cyclists , navigating the streets and imparting additional local and historic information along the way . The stops were interesting and we absolutely loved being welcomed into the home of Porzia for a lesson in how to make Orchiette.
So many laughs along the way , Thank you Anna, Frederica and Vincenzo for being so full of energy and friendly and for welcoming us to a city you all clearly love ! We had a very enjoyable and memorable experience and would recommend .
