The panoramic view on Rione Aia Piccola with its infinite expanse of conical roofs is enchanting. ----- POLIGNANO A MARE ---- 2nd Stop 1 hour - free time The old town is perched on a rocky headland overlooking the sea and thanks to the beautiful terraces it’s possible to admire sea caves and natural creeks carved into the rock by waves over time. The taste of the famous “special coffee”, the exclusive invention of a well-known pastry chef, deserves a stop. --- >> CHECK THE DEPARTURE & RETURN SECTION BELOW FOR TRANSFER INFORMATION !!!
