How much do food and wine cruises in Apulia cost?

Most cruises along the Polignano a Mare and Monopoli coast sit in the upper mid-range for the region: you are paying for a skippered boat, a small group and food and drink included on board. Shorter aperitif cruises are the more accessible option, while catamaran departures with a fuller Apulian tasting tend to sit at the premium end.

Which food and wine cruises in Apulia offer free cancellation?

The large majority of cruises on this stretch of coast can be cancelled free of charge up to a set deadline before departure, which is useful if you are planning around Apulia's changeable sea conditions. Look for the free cancellation label on each listing, and check the exact cut-off time on the tour page — it varies between operators.
