About this tour
Travel from Rome to Bari for a private day exploring the city’s historic streets and the Basilica of San Nicola. Your English-speaking driver takes you from your hotel in Rome to Apulia, where a guide leads a three-hour walk through Bari’s highlights, including its beach and the basilica, an important pilgrimage destination for Catholic and Orthodox Christians.
Built in the 11th and 12th centuries, the Basilica of San Nicola is known for its Romanesque sculpture and the throne of a bishop. Its two large towers give the church a castle-like appearance, and the building served as a castle on four occasions. After the guided visit, enjoy time for lunch and a wander through Bari’s characteristic streets and shops before the drive back to Rome. Lunch and entrance tickets are not included.

How this score is calculated
This tour has no TourTruth score yet: Viator doesn't show a usable rating for it. It gets a score as soon as a provider lists one.
How the score works
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10. Tours without a usable provider rating are not scored.
