[MegaThread] Are you visiting Bari? – Tourist Mega Thread

8 Upvotes

Are you a visitor, looking for the best spots in Bari? Ask here. This is our pinned "Visiting Bari" Mega Thread.

Looking for restaurants, cultural spots, snacks, beaches, public transit?

Well, come on down and ask all the questions you like. I'll update this post to reflect the best sub-recommended places to visit.

Places in Bari

  • The San Nicola Basilica : San Nicola is the patron saint of Bari.
  • The San Sabino Cathedral
  • The entire old town is really nice to get lost in.
  • The so-called Pasta Street is worth a visit. It's where old ladies are making fresh orecchiette (a typical pasta from the area).
  • The Margherita Theater, now a museum and exhibition hall. There are always shows going on.
  • The Bari "Boardwalk". The seaside road is one of the longest in Europe and is generally a nice place to be. All the piazzas facing it are really fun too. They're full of bars and restaurants.

Nearby Towns:

  • Torre a Mare is a small little place with a nice-ish port area and some beaches (not very easily reached on foot).
  • Mola di Bari is a port town known for its octopus. It has a castle on sea and a newly renovated boardwalk. Plenty of restaurants and bars.
  • Polignano a Mare is a tourist Mecca and home to Lama Monachile, where they do the Red Bull Diving competition every September. It's a quaint little town. A must-see.
  • Monopoli is another beaut'. Bigger than they other towns combined, it has a large old town with a beach right in the city. It's full of restos and bars. You can have a good time here. There are even buses to Capitolo, a nearby area with tons of beach resorts/lidi.
  • Alberobello, home of the UNESCO World Heritage Trulli. It's like a smurf-house village.
  • Matera, another UNESCO World Heritage site, is also not too far from Bari.
  • Trani, with its magnificent seaside Cathedral
  • Bisceglie, with its nice marina and seafront full of restaurants
  • Giovinazzo has a beautiful seafront
  • Casamassima, known as the Blue Town
  • Turi, there are tons of cherry trees here and it's beautiful for its cherry blossoms in the spring.

Where to eat:

  • Pizza
    • Honestly, everywhere is good for pizza.
    • You can go to Desideria in Madonnella if you want some vegan options.
    • Pizzeria di Cosimo in Piazza Albicocca is ok (I'm not personally a fan, but everyone swears by it).
    • Enzo & Ciro, there are two locations.
    • Lievito has the best Neapolitan style pizza in Bari. It's near the Politechnic School.
  • Seafood
    • Le Terrazze del Santa Lucia. It's a bit farther out of the city, near the fiera del levante. It's on the edge of the water. It's a nice location. You need to try raw seafood, it's a Barese speciality. Another typical dish is Riso, Patate e Cozze (rice, potatoes and mussels).
    • La Tana del Polpo is pretty good in the old town as well.
  • Other specialities
    • A really good place for panzerotti is Venezia 40 on the city wall of the old town.
    • Piazza Albicocca for sgagliozze and popizze. Also fried up fresh in a bunch of lanes in the old town.
    • El Focacciaro is often referred to as the best focaccia, but it's super expensive and oily for my tastes.
    • Violante in Madonnella makes some good, non-traditional saucy focaccia.
    • Santa Rita in the old town makes solid focaccia. Some say it's the best.
    • Arciuli, downtown makes great focaccia. They put boiled potatoes in it to make it fluffier.
    • Tiella near the Petruzzelli theatre makes all the local specialties. They make them all decently and at a reasonable price: panzerotti, riso patate e cozze, orecchiette fave e cicoria.
    • Mamapulia has also been flagged as good for local dishes.
    • Al Sorso Preferito is, by many accounts, the place where pasta all'assassina was invented, and as such have a great offering.

What to eat (typical dishes):

  • Panzerotti
  • Sgagliozze
  • Popizze
  • Focaccia
  • Riso patate e cozze
  • Raw seafood
  • Orecchiette Cime di Rapa
  • Fave e cicoria
  • Pasta all'assassina

The great thing about many of the typical local dishes is that many of them are vegan, many of them are naturally gluten-free, many of them are lactose-free, many of them are vegetarian, so everyone can try at least some of them.

How to get around:

Trains

You don't need a car to get around Bari. Here are some of the places to check timetables, costs, routes:

On paper, there are four (4) train stations in Bari. They are all located in generally the same area.

  • Bari Centrale: This is for all Trenitalia train. [Trenitalia](https://www.trenitalia.com) this is Italy's national train service. It now manages and operates FSE and FNB lines (see below). You can reach all the towns and cities on the Adriatic coast, and some inland towns on the route to Taranto.
  • Bari Nord: Located about 50m away from Bari Centrale, this is where [Ferrovie del Nord Barese (FNB)/Ferrotramviaria](https://www.ferrovienordbarese.it/) trains leave from. You can reach inland towns and cities north of Bari as well as the Airport on this line. It's connected via tunnel to Bari Centrale, or you can walk 50m and take the stairs down to the tracks.
  • Bari Sud: This station has been absorbed by Bari Centrale and has two tracks located after track 10. This is where trains from [Ferrovie del Sud Est (FSE)](https://www.fseonline.it/) leave. From here you can go to inland towns south of Bari, like Alberobello, Martina Franca, etc... They also have buses.
  • Bari Centrale FAL: This is where [Ferrovie Appulo Lucane (FAL)](https://ferrovieappulolucane.it/) trains depart. These trains also go to inland cities directly west, toward Basilicata. You can reach places like Altamura, Matera, etc... The station is located above the FNB train station.

You can use the websites to buy the tickets, or you can use apps like Omio, Moovit and the like.

Buses

There is a local bus service to get around Bari as well, the Azienda Mobilità e Trasporti Autobus Bari ([AMTAB](https://www.amtab.it/it/)). These buses go all around the city with varying degrees of punctuality. The site is not very user friendly. You can buy tickets and see routes on the MUVT app and MooneyGo app (formerly MyCicero). There is also a booth outside of Bari Centrale train station where you can buy tickets and ask for information (generally just in Italian).

There are also inter-city bus services:

  • STP: The [Societa Trasporti Provinciale](https://www.stpspa.it/). This is a regional bus service that goes to towns throughout the Bari region. The only place to find info on scheduling and routes, is unfortunately on their website.
  • COTRAP: The [Consorzio Trasporti Aziende Pugliesi](https://www.cotrap.it/). This service reaches all of Puglia through various routes. They have an app (which sucks) and a website. You can buy tickets on the website or the app, as well as news stands and some bars. Their buses go all over Puglia.
  • Marino Bus: This is a private bus company that also goes all around Puglia.
  • FlixBus: I think you know Flixbus.

Taxis

Bari isn't a big enough city to have taxis roaming around that you can hail in the fly, so you need to go to a taxi stand or call one. There are several taxi stands around town:

  • Bari Centrale, right in front of the station in piazza Moro. There are also often taxis waiting at the via Capruzzi exit.
  • Piazza Massari, slightly south of the castle, near corso Vittorio Emanuele.
  • in Madonnella behind the Istituto tecnico Marconi
  • others I can't remember

You can call Co.ta.ba. That's Bari's taxi hotline. +39.080.554.33.33
You can even reach them on WhatsApp at the same number to secure your taxi.
There's no guarantee that you will find a taxi at any of the taxi stands at any time. To guarantee yourself transport, call and reserve one.

Other modes

There are also bike and scooter rentals all over town now.

Vaimoo is the city's bike share service. You can rent them from designated "parking spots" in the city and drop them off in any other designated area. You need to download their app.

There is also Bit, Lime, Vento and Tier for scooter rentals. You can pick them up and drop them off anywhere. You need to download an app to use them.

Esperienza con l’ITS Academy Apulia Digital: cosa sapere prima di iscriversi

3 Upvotes

Visto che in questa comunità sono già comparse diverse domande su Apulia Digital Maker, vorrei condividere la mia esperienza dopo aver concluso il percorso ITS Data Driven Developer.

Non intendo parlare a nome di tutti gli studenti né attaccare singole persone. Ogni edizione, classe e stage può essere differente. Vorrei semplicemente offrire un punto di vista non promozionale a chi, a Bari o nei territori vicini, sta valutando l’iscrizione.

Avevo scelto questo percorso perché desideravo entrare professionalmente nel settore informatico e pensavo che un ITS potesse offrire una preparazione pratica, vicina alle necessità delle aziende. Durante la presentazione del corso era stata sottolineata l’elevata occupabilità dei diplomati, insieme alla presenza di aziende partner e alle possibilità di inserimento lavorativo.

La mia esperienza concreta è stata però meno positiva rispetto alle aspettative iniziali. L’organizzazione generale del calendario era accettabile, ma la comunicazione tra scuola e studenti non sempre portava a risposte e soluzioni efficaci. Anche ambienti e attrezzature non mi sono sempre sembrati adeguati a un percorso tecnologico.

Uno degli aspetti che mi ha lasciato più perplesso è stata la gestione della frequenza obbligatoria. Ho avuto la percezione che i controlli non fossero sempre rigorosi e uniformi per tutti. Non conosco i conteggi ufficiali dei singoli partecipanti, ma, dal punto di vista di chi frequentava con continuità, il sistema non è sempre apparso trasparente.

Per quanto riguarda la didattica, ho incontrato anche persone preparate e disponibili. Tuttavia, in diversi moduli venivano date per scontate conoscenze che non tutti possedevano e il metodo si basava spesso su slide mostrate e commentate senza un approfondimento sufficiente.

Il programma comprendeva molte materie, affrontate però per periodi relativamente brevi. Personalmente avrei preferito studiare meno tecnologie, ma in modo più approfondito, costruendo progetti completi e collegando realmente frontend, backend, database, API, Git e testing.

Al termine delle lezioni non mi sentivo ancora pronto per entrare con sicurezza in un vero team di sviluppo. Una parte importante delle competenze che possiedo oggi deriva dallo studio autonomo, dai progetti personali e da altre risorse utilizzate per approfondire ciò che durante il corso era stato trattato superficialmente.

Anche le verifiche e le valutazioni non mi sono sempre sembrate coerenti con la partecipazione e l’impegno effettivo degli studenti. Non posso conoscere i criteri individuali adottati, ma avrei apprezzato criteri più chiari, uniformi e trasparenti.

Durante lo stage, svolto presso un’azienda del settore informatico, l’affiancamento è stato prevalentemente a distanza e i momenti di confronto sono stati limitati. Ci è stato chiesto di sviluppare un progetto utilizzando strumenti non approfonditi durante il corso, che abbiamo quindi dovuto studiare in buona parte autonomamente.

Questa esperienza mi ha comunque permesso di imparare e mettermi alla prova, ma ritengo che uno stage formativo dovrebbe prevedere un onboarding strutturato, obiettivi chiari, verifiche periodiche e una persona realmente disponibile a seguire gli studenti. Il controllo della scuola mi è sembrato soprattutto burocratico.

Dopo lo stage non ho percepito un vero accompagnamento nella ricerca del lavoro attraverso offerte, contatti con altre aziende, colloqui o un percorso strutturato successivo al diploma. Alcuni studenti hanno ottenuto opportunità lavorative, ma non conosco i criteri utilizzati e non intendo formulare ipotesi.

A chi sta valutando l’iscrizione consiglio di non fermarsi alle percentuali generali pubblicizzate, ma di chiedere informazioni precise:

  • quanti studenti della specifica edizione hanno trovato un lavoro coerente;
  • quali contratti sono stati proposti;
  • quante assunzioni sono arrivate dalle aziende dello stage;
  • quali tecnologie vengono realmente approfondite;
  • come viene organizzato l’affiancamento durante lo stage;
  • quale supporto viene fornito a chi non viene assunto.

Non considero completamente inutile ogni parte del percorso: ho incontrato alcuni docenti validi, svolto attività pratiche e imparato nuove tecnologie soprattutto attraverso lo studio autonomo.

Tornando indietro, però, probabilmente sceglierei un percorso di studio differente e più mirato. Questo non significa che ogni studente vivrà la stessa esperienza o che tutti gli ITS siano inutili. Spero soltanto che questa testimonianza possa essere utile a chi sta cercando informazioni prima di prendere una decisione importante.

EDIT – Aggiornamento successivo alla pubblicazione

Dopo aver pubblicato questo post, ho ricevuto la comunicazione dell’azienda presso cui ho svolto lo stage: il mio profilo non è stato selezionato per proseguire la collaborazione.

Non mi è stato fornito un feedback specifico sulle motivazioni o sui criteri utilizzati. Preciso che non mi era mai stata garantita un’assunzione e sono consapevole che uno stage non comporti automaticamente un inserimento lavorativo.

Nonostante questo, dopo mesi di lavoro, studio autonomo e impegno su un progetto portato avanti con un affiancamento molto limitato, ricevere una comunicazione standard senza un riscontro tecnico concreto è stato particolarmente deludente.

Non contesto il diritto dell’azienda di scegliere altri profili. Mi sarei però aspettato maggiore trasparenza, un feedback sul lavoro svolto e un accompagnamento più serio nella fase conclusiva, sia da parte dell’azienda sia da parte della scuola.

Aggiungo questo aggiornamento per completezza, perché rappresenta la conclusione effettiva della mia esperienza: al termine del corso e dello stage non ho ottenuto un inserimento e, almeno fino a questo momento, non ho ricevuto un supporto concreto nella ricerca di altre opportunità.

Ingegneria Gestionale nel 2026: è una buona scelta? Ne vale la pena?

1 Upvotes

Sto valutando il mio futuro accademico e sto pensando seriamente di iscrivermi a Ingegneria Gestionale. Mi chiedevo se, nel mercato del lavoro attuale, fosse ancora una scelta solida e competitiva.

​Mi piacerebbe tantissimo sentire le vostre esperienze dirette a riguardo. In particolare vorrei sapere:

​Ne vale davvero la pena?

​Quanto è difficile, onestamente? (Carico di studio, esami scoglio, ecc.)

​C'è qualcuno che si è pentito di averla scelta? Se sì, perché?

​Inoltre, ho intenzione di immatricolarmi al Politecnico di Bari (PoliBa). Se c'è qualche studente o ex studente di quell'ateneo che ha voglia di condividere la sua esperienza specifica (com'è l'ambiente, la qualità della didattica, le prospettive lavorative sul territorio o fuori), gliene sarei immensamente grato!

Best transport from Bari airport to Movenpick hotel

Wife and I (75 years young) are flying into Bari in September. Will have two large suitcases to wheel about. We are ok with taking the train to Centrale, but then will still need a cab to hotel. What are the cab fares for a trip like this? Uber or FreeNow work at the airport? I have heard the fares can be anywhere from 25-50 Euro which is a big range for a not so long ride. Ideas? Grazie!

7 days in Bari

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! 

In August, we’ll be spending 7 days in Bari, and we’d love to get some recommendations from people who know the area well. 

We’re looking for:

* Beautiful beaches, both public and private with sunbeds, including less crowded spots with crystal-clear water and stunning scenery.

* Restaurants, gelato shops, and cafés that are definitely worth trying.

* Towns and villages we shouldn’t miss. We’re already planning to visit Monopoli, Polignano a Mare, Alberobello, and Lecce.

* Local activities and experiences that you would recommend.

We won’t have a car, although we might rent one for a day or two. We’re mainly interested in places that are easy to reach by train.

Any tips, recommendations, or favorite spots would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much!

Stiamo cercando informazioni sulla vita in periferia di Bari per la pensione.

Stiamo cercando informazioni sulla vita in periferia di Bari per la pensione. Siamo cittadini italiani residenti in Canada. Parliamo italiano fluentemente (questo testo è stato tradotto da Google Traduttore 😎). Stiamo valutando zone come Carbonara di Bari o Poggiofranco. Cerchiamo un appartamento di 80 metri quadrati a un prezzo accessibile, in un buon quartiere dove poter contribuire alla comunità. Apprezziamo qualsiasi suggerimento su una comunità vivace ed economica.

Abbiamo dei parenti qui vicino, a Monopoli, ma pensano che siamo pazzi a voler vivere in una grande città. Io amo la vita di città e l'idea di vivere in un piccolo paese non mi attrae per niente.

Modifica: sto pianificando 6 mesi a Bari per fare il pieno di mozzarella ed evitare gli inverni e le estati canadesi a Toronto, in Canada.

Does anyone have any comments about the festival, does it worth investing one day of our holiday to the festival? Also, it looks very tough to get around, we prefer not to rent a car if possible and I was not able to understand if they have shuttle/bike services.

Bari Recommations

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I'm planning a trip to Bari, Italy from September 15–22. I'll be working in the evenings (Eastern Time), so I'll have my days free and want to make the most of them!
The places at the top of my list are Alberobello, Ostuni, and Matera, but I'm open to any suggestions.
A few questions:
What itinerary would make the most sense for this trip?

Would you recommend staying in Bari the whole time and doing day trips by car, or splitting my stay between different towns?

How difficult is parking in Bari and the surrounding towns?

If you had to recommend one or two **absolute must-see** places in Puglia (the kind of places everyone should see at least once!), what would they be?

I'm a huge foodie 🍝. What's the one restaurant or meal in Puglia that you still dream about? I'd love any recommendations—from hidden local gems to unforgettable fine dining.

Thanks so much! I can't wait to explore this beautiful part of Italy.
