Definitely worthwhile - The organisation of this tour was excellent. Easy online booking and directions for the departure point in Bari. Despite the awful weather forecast (we bought a couple of ponchos on the bus - well used during the tour) the tour was really enjoyable. I might have preferred to visit Monopoli rather than Polignano (following Lolita Lobosco scenes) . The day was long but it was an excellent way of seeing a lot of Puglia in a short space of time without the hassle of driving, parking etc. The booklet and downloadable guide were useful but the pre-recorded commentary on the bus got a bit tedious and on this particular tour the sound system on the bus was poor - buzz at high volume and particularly bad when music was playing. Would I recommend this tour ? Definitely. And also the Alberobello and Matera tour which we did later in the week.

Self guided tour of the gems of Puglia - This is essentially a self guided tour. There is no guide. You will be given a digital itinerary with links to Google map navigation to visit places of interest at these 3 destinations. Make sure that you know how to get back to the bus at the appointed time. There is a Google map link to the bus parking. All 3 destinations are very beautiful. The only drawback is that time is limited at each place.

Things that need to be addressed before tour - First, that everything is done via Google maps , not a guide , and not even a nice driver . The music played on the bus is extremely high in volume and you can not even rest , specially coming back to Bari .

Two out of three is not bad - Polignano is beautiful - tour arrives and departs prior to opening of the featured cafe with "famous" fish sandwich" (picture looked good). Ostuni is nice. Locorotondo could be skipped - 2 hours wasted. You can easily get to Polignano and Ostuni via train - and that would be my recommendation.

Great on you own tour. - It was great being able to get there by bus and exploring on your own. No tour to follow. They give you a map and you can download it on your phone which will give you directions of where to visit. You have the capability of skipping a site if you like. Just make sure you have phone data and bring your phone charger.

Worth it to visit a lot in 1 day - This 'tour' is really a bus ride to the various towns. You get a guide that u can follow and ample time to discover on your own which we liked. If you are expecting a tour guide, this is not the tour for you.
