Alberobello is one of the most famous destinations in Puglia, but it’s also one of the most debated. As more travelers add Alberobello to their Italy itineraries, I’m increasingly hearing the same question: Is Alberobello still worth visiting, or has tourism changed the experience too much?
In this episode, I share my honest perspective after returning to Alberobello and explain why opinions about this unique town are often so divided. While some visitors leave disappointed, others consider it one of the highlights of their trip through Puglia. In my experience, the difference usually comes down to how you visit and what you choose to experience once you arrive.
I discuss the realities of visiting Alberobello today, from navigating crowds, parking, and summer heat to understanding the difference between the town’s two historic trulli districts. I also share some of the most meaningful experiences from my recent visit, including conversations with local residents who still live inside traditional trulli homes and the stories that reveal a side of Alberobello many travelers never discover.
Whether you're planning a Puglia itinerary, researching the best places to visit in Southern Italy, or wondering if Alberobello deserves a place on your trip, this episode offers practical travel advice, local insight, and a deeper look at one of Italy’s most recognizable UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Most importantly, I explain how to experience Alberobello in a way that feels authentic, memorable, and truly worth your time.
