The City of Two Seas: A Self Guided Taranto Tour
Overview
Taranto is the gateway to the Maldives of Italy and its beautiful coastlines, and boasts not centuries, but millennia of history and culture. On this self-guided walking tour, you‘ll find out how this jewel of southern Italy has been shaped by the sea, and retains a deep connection to this day.
The tour starts at Ponte di Pietra bridge, overlooking the open Ionian Sea. You‘ll head to Taranto‘s historical center which many cultures have called home, where I‘ll show you the imposing city gate, the ancient gate of Naples, Porta Napoli. You‘ll then cross Ponte di Porta Napoli, a stone bridge over two seas, and wind your way through the city‘s medieval road
