About Trani
Trani wears its past openly: a Romanesque cathedral built at the water's edge, a Swabian castle facing the harbour, and a medieval Jewish quarter whose synagogues still stand. For travellers who want the stories behind the stone, the Trani Private Tour: A Masterpiece on the Adriatic Sea, Rich in History and Beauty pairs a guide's narration with the city's landmark architecture, while the Trani Private Tour with Exclusive Aperitif: History, Art & Apulian Flavors closes a walk through the old town with a taste of the region.

Frequently asked questions
Trani concentrates an unusual amount of history into a walkable centre: the 12th-century cathedral on the sea, Frederick II's castle, and the medieval Jewish quarter with its surviving synagogues. A guided tour connects these monuments to the wider story of Apulia and the Adriatic, which is hard to piece together from plaques alone.
