The climate in Puglia is generally warm sunny and dry in April/May and again in October with the risk of the odd shower of rain. Sometimes it can be cool in the evenings. By June the weather settles in a pattern of long hot sunny days and balmy evenings especially in July and August when it can get a bit humid. Rain is unlikely but it can happen from time to time. June and September are particularly pleasurable months.
Itinerary
Puglia, Italy
Day 1: Arrival at Borgo Egnazia – Settling into Southern Charm
Welcome to Puglia. Your family’s Italian journey begins at Borgo Egnazia, a haven crafted to feel both timeless and completely your own. Designed to mirror a traditional village, it’s a place where children can roam freely and parents can truly unwind. You’ll settle into a beautifully styled villa, with space for everyone to stretch out. The pace today is gentle – perhaps a swim, a gelato by the pool, or simply time to explore the grounds and start soaking in that southern sun.
Day 2: Private Boat Along the Adriatic Coast
Today, take to the water on your own private boat, gliding past the cliffside towns of Monopoli and Polignano a Mare. There’s something magical for children about spotting sea caves and jumping into calm, clear waters – and plenty of space on board for parents to relax. Your skipper knows the best hidden coves for a splash and snorkel, while stories of local legends keep the whole family entertained. A light lunch on board completes this beautifully paced, sea-sprayed day.
Day 3: Coastal Biking & Beachside Indulgence
Ease into the morning with a gentle family biking route through olive groves and along quiet coastal paths – ideal for little legs, with support vehicles nearby just in case. The reward? A peaceful beach where loungers and shaded spots await, plus a delicious lunch just steps from the sea. With the afternoon free for sandcastles or simply soaking in the sun, today balances activity and downtime perfectly for all ages.
Day 4: Farm Life at a Traditional Masseria
Step into the rhythm of rural Puglia with a visit to a working Masseria, where your family is welcomed like old friends. Children can help gather herbs, press olives or feed the animals, while parents enjoy a guided tasting of local wine, cheese and olive oil. This isn’t just a tasting – it’s a glimpse into the region’s soul. Unhurried and hands-on, it’s a day that nurtures curiosity, connection and appetite.
Day 5: Wandering Whitewashed Ostuni
After a slower morning, head to Ostuni, a hilltop town straight out of a storybook, with cobbled alleys and whitewashed buildings glowing in the afternoon sun. The pace today is yours to set – wander at leisure, stop for granita or espresso, and discover small artisan shops along the way. A family-friendly trattoria offers a relaxed dinner, and for children, there's charm in simply staying up late under twinkling lights in the piazza.
Day 6: Lecce’s Flavours & Hidden Corners
Lecce welcomes you today with its playful mix of baroque beauty and modern flair. A private walking tour introduces you to its winding streets and grand piazzas, with plenty of pauses for snacks and stories. You’ll finish in the home of a local chef – an intimate, family-friendly setting where you can try your hand at making traditional dishes before enjoying them together. It's hands-on, heartfelt, and deliciously memorable.
Day 7: Alberobello by Night – A Storybook Finale
As your week draws to a close, Alberobello offers the perfect final note. Famous for its Trulli houses, this evening is all about whimsy and wonder. You’ll explore the village in the golden hour, when crowds fade and the stones glow. Then, a private dinner inside a restored Trullo offers one last taste of Puglian hospitality – intimate, imaginative, and full of warmth. Children will love the fairytale setting, while parents savour a quiet moment to reflect.
Day 8: Farewell from Bari
Depart from Bari with hearts (and suitcases) full. From salt-kissed coastlines to sun-drenched towns, your family’s first taste of Puglia has been a beautiful blend of culture, connection and care – thoughtfully designed so every member of the family felt seen, heard, and part of something special.
