Bovino Private Tour: A hidden historic gem of Puglia
Take part in a tour of the historic center of Bovino and discover one of the most beautiful villages in Puglia. Admire the exterior of the Ducal Castle of Guevara, characterized by imposing walls, towers, and a panoramic position overlooking the valley, a testament to its ancient defensive function. Visit the Bovino Cathedral, dating back to the 10th century, and be fascinated by its early Christian basilica with three naves, its Romanesque façade, and the Gothic elements in its portals, including the Chapel of Saint Mark inside. Continue to the public gardens and the Carlo Gaetano Nicastro Civic Museum, an important archaeological museum inaugurated in 1925, which preserves artifacts from the Neolithic period to the Middle Ages. Admire amphorae, bowls, axes, oil lamps, and much more. Conclude the tour with a visit to the Church of St. Peter & Paul, the smallest in the village, built on the remains of a pagan temple dedicated to Hercules, and preserving traces of its medieval past.

Where this sits in Puglia
Puglia is about 1 hr 4 min by road from Brindisi Salento Airport. The heel: whitewashed towns, trulli, olive groves and a coast on both sides. Slower and cheaper than the north, best in a car, and at its finest either side of high summer.
