Panoramic Bari Accessible Driving Tour
See Bari and three other villages!
This 8 hour panoramic accessible driving tour from Bari visits the historic Old Town of the city, as well as three nearby villages!
Your guide will meet you at the cruise terminal to begin your accessible guided walking tour of Old Town Bari, before taking a scenic drive to the nearby villages of Alberobello, Ostuni and Polignano a Mare.
The quaint Bari Old Town may by small (about a kilometer across!), but what it lacks in size it makes up for in historical sites! You’ll visit three amazing 11th and 12th century buildings on your Bari accessible driving tour—the Basilica of Saint Nicholas, the Cathedral of San Sabino (Bari Cathedral), and the Swabian Castello Svevo.
After visiting the churches and castle, your guide will take you just outside the old town to the nearby pedestrian shopping street Via Sparano. Spend some time browsing or picking up souvenirs or local snacks before heading to the nearby village of Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage Site! The main attraction in Alberobello are the unique, 14th century cone-shaped stone houses called trulli. Your guide will tell you more about these tiny “huts” that line the streets in rows.
The second of three coastal villages included in your accessible Bari driving tour is Ostuni, a picturesque city on a hill. You’ll stop here just for a short while to see the Ostuni Cathedral, a really fantastic 15th century cathedral you won’t want to miss.
The final stop on your Bari accessible driving tour is the fishing village of Polignano a Mare, which sits on the Adriatic cliffs! Enjoy the amazing views of this scenic town, the same views that inspired Polignano a Mare native DominicoModugno to write the song “Volare” (made popular by Dean Martin).
After a full day of visiting quaint Italian villages, your guide and driver will take you back to the cruise terminal in Bari!

Accessibility Details
The Panoramic Bari Accessible Driving Tour has a 3 star Sage Accessibility Rating because it uses a wheelchair accessible vehicle and the guide is able to push a wheelchair if necessary. It did not receive a higher rating because you will encounter mild to moderate cobblestones along the way and some attractions require you to go up one or two steps to enter.
Your guide and driver will pick you up from the cruise terminal for this accessible Bari driving tour. You may choose either a wheelchair accessible van or a low vehicle.
When you visit the Basilica of St. Nicholas in Bari, your guide will take you to the wheelchair accessible entrance with a ramp.
The Bari Cathedral (Cathedral of San Sabino) also has a wheelchair accessible ramp to enter.
The streets of Bari are paved with a mixture of cobblestones and paving stones. Some areas are smoother than others. Your guide will direct you on the smoothest route possible, but occasionally you will encounter some moderate uneven cobblestones or paving stones like those shown on the right. Your guide can also push a wheelchair if necessary.
You will drive between the sites and villages on this accessible tour. There are some great panoramic, scenic views and photo opportunities along the way!
The Ostuni Cathedral requires two steps followed by one more step to enter. Once inside, the floors of the cathedral are flat and smooth. You may ask your guide for assistance to enter or have your companion help. Otherwise you may view the exterior of the cathedral.
