DMC Apulia (Puglia): Incentives, Meetings and Events
Alberobello: a town full of charming white trulli, round cone-topped constructions from the 15th century, dotted all around.
Apulia, with The Platinum Services DMC Italy and Events, is a region that can be discovered at all levels and where tradition and contemporary life are intertwined.
Why Apulia for your event
Lecce, its main town, also known as the Florence of the South, offers a wide variety of five and four star hotels and conference venues, mainly housed in historic palaces. The beautiful surroundings include unique places like Gallipoli, Otranto and the whitewashed Ostuni, so lively in summer, when they become a natural stage for fun and entertainment.
Venues: trulli and masserie
The region offers beautiful locations with stunning romantic settings for gala dinners, product launches or corporate events: perhaps the most famous are the trulli of Alberobello. They stand in rows like little white beehives reaching towards azure skies, with pinnacles or crosses and strange stone markers that are said to have magical significance.
On a grander scale are the centuries-old fortified farmhouses called masserie, many of which have been restored as luxury hotels, often set among huge groves of ancient olive trees.
Food and wine experiences
In these places it is easy to organise activities: an olive oil tasting, with the chance to taste the exquisite olio nuovo (new oil) drizzled on fresh bread, or a cookery course in which you will learn how to make fresh pasta and focaccia.
