Hello!
My family is heading to Puglia (+Matera) for Christmas. We already have 2 nights in Bari because we'll be flying in there and 3 nights in Matera (though really only 2 full days as I have a full day tour booked for us in between Bari and Matera).
Outside of Christmas (during which we plan to have a traditional lunch at our agriturismo and relax), we have 4 days I want to use to explore some of the smaller towns. Our agriturismo is just south of Monopoli so I'm looking for recommendations for those 4 days (ie, Ostuni, Lecce, etc). We will have a car but I'd like to keep the drive to about 70 mins.
So ultimately, what cities would you recommend? I know there are beautiful beach towns in the area but I am assuming (maybe wrongfully so) that there wouldn't be much to do there in December.
Thank you in advance!
