My friend and I had a lovely stay at Michele & Katia’s apartment. It’s located just a 10 minute walk from the centre, so very convenient! We visited on the weekend of St Nicholas celebrations (the patron saint of Bari) unbeknownst to us, so we had a lovely time full of traditional Italian celebrations such as an air show, fireworks and procession through the streets of Bari. If you’re planning on visiting, I highly recommend scheduling for this time of the year (May 6th- 11th)! If you’re looking to see more of the South coast, I recommend hiring a car from the airport as it was definitely worth it.
