Overlooking the sea at the easternmost point of Italy, a privileged place to admire the first dawn of Italy, the centre of Otranto is a balcony on the East, a door and a bridge between two worlds. From Canterbury to the Holy Land along the pilgrimage routes, over the centuries a crossroads of peoples, Otranto was the birthplace of the most extensive European library in the monastery of Casole, of which only a few remains can still be visited.

From the miscellany of many cultures comes to life the mosaic floor in the Cathedral of Santa Maria Annunziata, a place of worship par excellence for the people of Otranto. It was also home to the remains of some of the 800 martyrs, killed on the hill of Minerva by the Turks led by Gedik Ahmet Pasha, for refusing to convert to Islam.
Otranto is a small village with a great past that exudes history from any angle you look at.

Why 15 days? Because we thought that fifteen days would allow you to cover the whole region from north to south together with neighbouring Basilicata, and also see those areas less known to mass tourism. The Grand Tour is mainly dedicated to adults, couples, small groups of friends curious about the culture and food of the Mediterranean; it is not suitable for families with children. Young family members are accepted from 16 years of age and will have to occupy their own room.

Visit the beautiful capital of Piedmont:https://www.iamsodifferent.com/turin-the-capital-a/turin-the-capital-a

The city of Turin is an important business and cultural centre in Northern Italy. The town is mainly on the Western bank of the Po River, surrounded by the Alps and the Superga Hill.

The city used to be a major European political centre. From 1563, it was the capital of the Duchy of Savoy, then of the Kingdom of Sardinia ruled by the House of Savoy, and the first capital of the Kingdom of Italy from 1861 to 1865. Turin is sometimes called "the cradle of Italian liberty" for having been the birthplace and home of influential people who contributed to the Risorgimento, such as Cavour. Although much of its political significance and importance had been lost by World War II, Turin became a major European crossroad for industry, commerce and trade. It is part of the famous "industrial triangle" along with Milan and Genoa. Turin is ranked third in Italy, after Milan and Rome, for economic strength. Turin is also home to the Italian automotive industry, with Fiat, Lancia, and Alfa Romeo headquarters.

Turin is well known for its Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Neo-classical, and Art Nouveau architecture. The city has a rich culture and history, and it is known for its numerous art galleries, restaurants, churches, palaces, opera houses, piazzas, parks, gardens, theatres, libraries, museums and other venues. Many of Turin's public squares, castles, gardens and elegant palazzi, such as the Palazzo Madama, were built between the 16th and 18th centuries. Most of the historical centre of Turin became part of the World Heritage List under the name Residences of the Royal House of Savoy.

Whether it's on the seashore or in the club of a little village alley, the chorus starts when a first note is hinted, and the foot follows.

Fiat’s story begins in 1900 when Italian entrepreneur Giovanni Agnelli opened the first Fiat factory in Turin, Italy.

Visit where it all began on our Turin the City Tour 2: https://www.iamsodifferent.com/turin-the-capital-b/turin-the-capital-b

Agnelli founded the car company with a group of local investors, calling their newest venture: Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino (FIAT), or Italian Automobile Factory of Turin. Their first factory was quite small, employing only 150 people on a daily basis. But the tiny automaker proved successful in its home country, which cleared the way for Agnelli to establish the first Fiat factory in the U.S. in 1908.

The beauty of Piedmont is its diversity, so whether you’re exploring its baroque palaces, vineyards or lakes, you’ll find a reason to love it.

💚Barolo has long been hailed as the “Wine of Kings” and you can taste the region’s aromatic wines at source. Wander the vineyards and see how the wine is produced.
⚪Alba is know all over the world for its delicious Alba white truffles. Hunting for these prized mushrooms is half the fun, so visit during the harvest season from September to November.
❤️Lago d’Orta has a dramatic setting, backed by Monte Mottarone. Explore the medieval village of Orta San Giulio and see the enchanting Island of San Giulio from the lake’s forested banks.
💚Piedmont’s capital is the beautiful city of Turin. Its central square is lined with museums, theaters and cafes. Palazzo Madama (Turin / Torino) has been the seat of the Italian Senate since 1871. Nearby, Venaria Reale is one of the largest former royal residences in the world. The Unesco listed baroque palace was built in 1675 as a hunting lodge for the Savoy Family. It is now home to a museum and hosts concerts.
⚪Ivrea’s Battle of the Oranges is Italy’s largest food fight. It’s a re-enactment of a war that broke out in the 12th century. More than 500,000 oranges are thrown during combat which takes place every year in the run up to Shrove Thursday.

The forest is a protected natural reserve located in the central-eastern area of Gargano, which boasts rich and ancient vegetation so thick that it has earned the name "Umbra".

The Umbra Forest is one of the best-preserved forests in Italy and is considered the lowest beech forest in Europe. Here the beeches are found at much lower altitudes than the classic 800 meters, thanks to the particular climatic conditions of the Gargano.

Since 2017, the ancient beech forests of the Umbra Forest have become a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site.

On night 3 of our Ostuni Staycation you have an optional excursion of a Speleo night excursion to the caves of Castellana Grotte ⛰️
Don't miss this extraordinary experience! Find out more and request the full tour itinerary on our website: https://www.iamsodifferent.com/puglia-solo-travels

A truly unique experience that starts from the “Grave”, where the deeper sense of this special visit is explained by “educating” the participants how to live this adventure as true explorers and, above all, to make use of all their senses.

Speleo Night is the night tour in the Caves of Castellana that shows you a different face of the karst site. Equipped with a helmet with a front light attached, guided by two expert spelunkers from the Puglia Grotte Group, you will walk through the entire itinerary up to the White Cave with the lights off, including a sidearm of the cave system which is not part of the tourist itinerary.

The first half of the trip takes place in the dark, only illuminated by the lights on the helmets, in an almost
palpable silence in which the ticking of the drops of water is amplified and the dripstones show themselves with
new and unique details.​

The two highlights: the Corridor of the Desert travelled in solitude, an unrepeatable experience in the
underground world, and the switching on of the lights in the White Cave. On the way back the lights remain
switched on, that way everything will seem different.
