Apulia (Puglia) is the sun-drenched heel of Italy's boot, stretching along the Adriatic and Ionian coasts with over 800 km of coastline, centuries-old whitewashed towns, and a food culture that rivals anywhere in the country. Home to two UNESCO World Heritage Sites — the iconic trulli of Alberobello and the enigmatic Castel del Monte — Apulia blends Norman castles, Baroque Lecce stonework, and ancient masserie (fortified farmhouses) into an unforgettable landscape.

Foodie tips
Get more out of every meal.
The Bari fish market (Mercato del Pesce) is at its most spectacular 5:00–7:00 AM — arrive before 7 AM for the full experience; sea urchins are cracked open and eaten on the spot
The best burrata comes from Andria — buy it at Caseificio Olanda (Via F. Cavallotti 56, Andria; +39 0883 542002) and eat it same-day at room temperature
Book food tours minimum 48 hours ahead in summer — most have a maximum of 8–12 participants and fill quickly
October is the single best month for food tourism: olive harvest begins, new wine is bottled, white truffles appear in markets, and focaccia is at its best when made with fresh new oil
