We enjoyed 10 wonderful days in Puglia in late October and early November 2018, organized by our friend and local partner Tommaso Perrone who will be Kathy’s co-leader for this new trip. October will be the perfect time of year to explore this region.
Learn more about our Puglia and our upcoming Experience week in this slide show. All the photos are from our 2018 trip. As you’ll see, Puglia offers a wide variety of experiences!
