Private Walking Tour of Ostuni, the White City

Discover the timeless charm of Ostuni, the famous “White City,” on a private walking tour that reveals its history, architecture, and breathtaking views. Begin in Piazza della Libertà, the lively heart of town, surrounded by elegant palaces and historic cafés, and admire the Column of Saint Oronzo along with the Baroque Church of San Francesco d’Assisi. Continue into the historic center, laid out in enchanting concentric circles—a maze of whitewashed alleys, graceful arches, and sudden panoramic views. Along Via Cattedrale, your guide will lead you past Baroque palaces, artisan workshops, and hidden corners that preserve the authentic soul of Ostuni. Finish with a stroll along the ancient city walls, where sweeping vistas stretch across centuries-old olive groves to the Adriatic Sea, before stepping inside the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, a Gothic masterpiece renowned for its rose window and richly symbolic interiors.
