Great places, disappointing itinerary
I went in October on the Puglia, Lecce and Vieste holiday. I was very disappointed to find the itinerary to be highly unsatisfactory, with too little time in the world heritage places and too long in the coach. Group sizes are in my opinion too big , about 40, so this means that they book hotels that are miles away from anywhere, as with the one near Matera. The strangest decision of Riviera Travel was to drive 3 hours to Vieste, almost closed in October, and cold, which then necessitated getting up very early to leave for the airport in Brindisi on our return. The area of Puglia is bursting with wonderful towns.much closer to Brindisi and Bari. Why they don't stay in this area is mindless.
