About Altamura
Altamura rewards first-time visitors who slow down: a compact medieval center of pale limestone lanes, the aroma of wood-fired bread drifting from historic ovens, and a cathedral that anchors it all. Start with the Altamura: Guided Walking Tour of the Medieval Center to get your bearings, or go deeper into local identity with the Altamura: Private Guided Walking Tour of History, Bread, and Traditions, which ties the town's famous bread to its past.

Frequently asked questions
Altamura's old town is small and walkable, so a guided tour quickly turns unfamiliar lanes into a clear story: the Romanesque cathedral, the medieval layout, and the bread baked in wood-fired ovens that gives the town its nickname. A licensed local guide explains what you would otherwise walk past, and private options let you set the pace.
