Detailed itinerary
1
Stop 1
An urban excursion in Alberobello. We will see the Trulli in Contrada Paparale (no stop), perhaps among the oldest. Certainly, those with the most interesting and well-known history. We will continue to Monte del Sale, around 1540 possessions of the Ancient Maritime Republic of Venice... from the not "random" toponym. We will continue to Contrada Cazzuddo, where we will admire an unprecedented panorama that extends to nearby Putignano, with countryside as far as the eye can see. Our journey will continue through Contrada Cielo Cielo, a name given due to the extension as far as the eye can see of its cultivated land. Among an olive grove, a vineyard and trulli that you will only be able to see here ... we will return to via G. Girolamo and via Colucci; named after old mayors of Alberobello.

Stop 2
Behind the Church, in Piazza Sacramento, another stupendous trullo awaits us; as you get closer it becomes imposing, it is the Trullo Sovrano, so called in 1916 and declared a national monument in 1923. It is because of its immense proportions that it is called Sovrano. It is the only trullo in Alberobello to be divided over two floors.
