Cruise tο Bari !
Bari, situated in the Adriatic Sea and the capital of the region of Apulia, forms one of the most economically active cities in southern Italy.
The multi-functional cruise terminal, which is situated right beside Bari’s historic centre, extends over 3,500sq mtr and includes a check-in area to cater for more than one ship at a time and a check-in for ferries to Greece. Bari provides a safe and sheltered harbour that can simultaneously accommodate multiple ships.
The region offers a wide range of tours, while the most popular excursions from Bari are: Castellana caves, Alberobello and the land of Trulli and Matera and the Sassi district which both are UNESCO World Heritage sites, Castel del Monte, and the Frederick II’s Swabian Castel, also UNESCO World Heritage. Believe it or not, Bari is the city of Santa Claus. The bones of the old Saint Nicholas rest in the Cathedral started to be built in 1087, after sailors from Bari stole the relics of the saint from Mira, in Turkey.
Today Bari is one of the most active cities in Italy with about 372,000 inhabitants, a modern, busy metropolis dominated by commerce, its principal source of wealth.
