“Deep Listening in Bari Vecchia - Fabio was a great guide. I wanted to do the Dolce far niente experience here in Italy and in the tour he really made us listen and observe the wonders of Bari Vecchia - from the smell of the laundry, traditional meals being cooked to the colors of the tile. We also learnt the history of Bari via a fun game. My mother and I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend.” - Reviewed at 2025-03-22
