About This Adventure
**Durata:**2ore
Il tour inizia visitando le attrazioni principali della città vecchia come la Basilica di San Nicola e la sua preziosa Cripta, l’antica Cattedrale di San Sabino e l’esterno del millenario Castello Normanno Svevo.
Il tour prosegue scoprendo la moderna parte francese, il suo lungomare monumentale e il mercato del pesce, i suoi importanti teatri e le lussuose strade dello shopping.
Il tour termina nella casa tipica della Nonna che ci svelerà i segreti delle rinomate orecchiette, insegnandoci la tradizionale tecnica per farle a mano. Bevendo un calice di vino Primitivo, cucineremo e assaggeremo le nostre orecchiette in un’autentica atmosfera familiare.
