The food scene in Ostuni is best discovered on foot — walk between Centro Storico, Cathedral and Piazza della Liberta to taste what makes this city's culinary identity distinct. Tuck into lesser-known corners like Museo di Civilta Preclassiche for the dishes visitors rarely find. From morning market runs to late-night street food, every neighborhood here has its own flavor.
The 'White City' of Puglia — a dazzling hill town of lime-washed buildings cascading down to olive groves and the Adriatic.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided food tour route in Ostuni. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Centro Storico — the whitewashed old town of narrow lanes, arches, and staircases, Cathedral — a 15th-century Gothic cathedral with an ornate rose window at the summit of the old town, Piazza della Liberta — the main square at the edge of the old town with views over the olive groves, plus hidden gems like Museo di Civilta Preclassiche — a museum housing Delia, a 25,000-year-old skeleton of a pregnant woman found nearby and Ostuni olive groves — some of the oldest olive trees in Italy, with specimens over 1,000 years old.
Use this page as a starting point for a Ostuni walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Ostuni. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
While Ostuni is best known for architecture and photography, stops like Centro Storico and Cathedral sit alongside bakeries and cafes tucked into side streets — and quieter spots like Museo di Civilta Preclassiche where the real locals eat. A food-focused walk connects the culinary landmarks with the places that reflect daily life, turning a sightseeing route into an edible discovery.
The old town is steep with many stairs. Enter from Piazza della Liberta and wind your way up to the cathedral at the top.
April through June and September through October. The Adriatic beaches below the town are best from June to September.
