Italy
Puglia
Valle D'Itria
Beyond the trulli and olive groves, the Itria Valley hides treasures worth seeking. Savor just-caught seafood by the sea, handpick cuts for a flame-grilled feast, and start your day with pasticciotti in a sunlit piazza. Hunt for rare ceramics, then unwind in a centuries-old masseria—where time slows and Puglia’s magic unfolds.
