Amazon time with Giulia - We had an amazing time with Giulia on the street food tour. She was so knowledgeable and showed us to the best food places we’ve experienced so far in Bari! We would definitely recommend doing this tour and if you get Giulia as your guide then you’re in for a fun few hours. Thank you so much and thank you for making my fiancées birthday special!

Awesome. Delicious. Love Bari and Anna Rita - We had the awesome pleasure of Anna Rita Maracchione as our guide. She was so much fun and very flexible as I had very bad allergies and needed a pharmacy before we could even start My husband is quite the character and she seemed to enjoy his antics. We walked thru old Bari and savored the unique tastes of Bari including gelato, focaccia, olives, cheese, meats sampling with a little vino plus a fried dough stuffed with cheese and tomato sauce. We also visited the street of the little arch where the ladies make the Orecchiette pasta. Everyone beyond Anna Rita at the Velo office was so friendly and gracious however Anna Rita went above and beyond and exceeded our every expectation. I should add I am 71 years old and she paced everything for my comfort. We highly recommend Anna Rita and this private walking tour.

Meeting location may be incorrect on printed tickets - Anna the guide was outstanding. She was energetic, passionate and full of knowledge about Bari and its history. The extreme heat was out of her control which made standing in streets for the eating/tasting experience less enjoyable. The only negative thing I have to say is to correct the meeting spot that gets printed on the tickets. We did not have wifi and the location on my ticket noted the pier as meeting location which was very far from the Velo headquarters actual starting spot. We had to run in the heat to try and find this location. Others had different starting locations on their tickets in our group. As a result we left the tour early due to heat exhaustion.

Not worth it! - This was a real disappointment! We booked a private food tour of Bari so we could tailor make our experience. We are real foodies and we wanted to see Bari off the beaten track. I emailed the tour office numerous times explaining our needs and was told everything would be OK and we could discuss our needs with the guide. When we arrived, we were told the tour is the tour and we will just go to the places that they have mapped for all their food tours! Having paid over double for a private tour , we would have had the same experience had we gone in a group. The tour was supposed to be 3 hours but after 2 hours we were told the tour is ending and we need to rush along. Having notified the guide that we are vegetarian ,we were given some pretty uninteresting food stuffs in tourist spots and by no means places locals would visit. At each stop were asked to wait outside while the guide brought us food. Surely the point of a good tour is to go in to the shop/deli/ restaurant, see it being made, talk to the people who make it and learn about it. The guide knew very little about the history or origins of the food. I appreciate she was well versed on the history of the city but this was a food tour not a historical tour. We feel very let down. Viator please make direct contact to resolve the matter. Not worth paying a premium for a private tour!
