This family's experience:

Activities: We arrived in Alberobello. We found a parking spot 20 minutes walk from the old center. We visited the trulli, which are houses made of dry stones with cone-shaped roofs. We took photos of the houses. We were caught in a crowd of tourists. "In the alleys, no benevolence, people pass us without any pity."

Highlights: The trulli are very special. The trulli are very beautiful, and the children were fascinated by them. "They stand out from the typical gray buildings of the cities and bring a touch of magic." Unfortunately, the alleys were crowded, but the kids liked taking pictures ✨
