1. Where to book accommodation?

Finding accommodation in Italy during the high season is not an easy task. As a rule, the best places are already booked, and the owners of those that have been seeing interest, increase prices. The cheapest offers can be found on AirBnb, especially if you travel with more people.

The biggest downsides were the lack of air conditioning or a fan, lack of Wi-fi and the location, because you had to get everywhere by car. The terrace turned out to be a plus, located in an olive grove, where we could have nice breakfasts. The advantage was also decent cleanliness, an equipped kitchen and a safe parking place. So if you don't really care about luxuries, because you spend most of the day away from home anyway, I can certainly recommend this place to you. You can book it HERE.

For 4 nights for two people I paid 151 euro.

2. What to see?

• VIESTE

• PESCHICI

This former fishing village, built on a cliff, resembles Vieste. However, it is much smaller and in my opinion, even better located. Although walking around Peschici requires more effort, because the streets stretch mainly uphill or downhill, it will be compensated by a beautiful view, from virtually every corner of this town. It's worth visiting the ruins of Castello Normanno from the turn of the 10th and 11th centuries.

Prices are also decent here. We drank coffee and ate delicious ice cream here.

• FORESTA UMBRA

This dense, species-rich forest is located in the Gargano National Park, one of the largest in Italy. It is divided into four parts, one of which is not publicly available. You can see 700-year-old pine trees and 40-meter beeches here.

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to visit it, but I hope that I will have the opportunity again in the future. Fingers crossed!

• MONTE SANT' ANGELO
