“CRIST’, CHIAM’M’!”
“Crist’, chiam’m’!” This is a typical dialectal expression of the Puglia region.
“CRIST’, CHIAM’M’!”
In this video We explain when we use “CRIST’, CHIAM’M’!”
In our region we often turn to the saints not only to pray, but also in less appropriate situations…! This is a typical dialectal expression of our region, Puglia.
So Apulian religion related dialect.
Why does Italy have more churches than people?
Because when you visit the historical centres, the villages, the monuments, you stop in a square to eat an ice-cream, you turn around and you are in front of or inside a church.
But for everything else, you find the people and things we are all used to
Now let’s take an example that could happen during one of our guide services
Imagine if during a guided tour, inside a large ancient church, everyone is silent, with earphones listening to the guide, seriously busy explaining the marble inlay of one of the altars, suddenly one of the backpacks falls on the floor on the feet of one of the participants of the visit causing also noise: we would say “Crist’ Chiam’m’!” for the embarrassment and especially for the desire to run away from that situation.
If you want to enjoy a direct experience of this emotion, call us and tell us on the phone: “Hello, We’d like to book a guided tour for tomorrow!
Are you the “CRIST’ CHIAM’M” Team?
Oh Jesus, of course we are!”

Trani – Strolling with Fabio
Trani – Strolling with Fabio! We’re waiting for you
Trani – Strolling with Fabio
Let’s start our walks in the city of Trani – Strolling with Fabio.
In the video Fabio wants to show his hometown, Trani, in less than 5 minutes. He will take you around the old town, between the Cathedral, the Queen of the cathedrals in Puglia Region, the Castle and the Jewish Quarter, he will tell you about “Little Nicholas”, a pilgrim who became Trani’s saint patron, and the oldest medieval maritime codes in the Mediterranean Sea and we will finish our walk in the Villa Comunale, from where we will enjoy a wonderful view of the port.
Our aim is to show you the places where we visit, and we want you to participate in our visits.
We have thought of showing you the guides of Le Comari di Puglia through videos: during a walk in the historical centers that we propose, when we want to tell you a story or a legend or simply show you some of our ways.
We will also show you the guides who are all busy explaining and collecting ideas during the guided tours.
A photo is as much a must as a visit to the city of Trani, her wonderful views, strolling with Fabio of course.
We wish you a good tour!
Hey! Let’s make it clear for anyone: we are waiting for you!

VIESTE and the love of Pizzomunno and Cristalda
Vieste and the love of Pizzomunno and Cristalda. A beautiful town on the promontory of Gargano, surrounded by a moving legend
Vieste and the love of Pizzomunno and Cristalda
The beautiful town of Vieste, on the promontory of the Gargano, lying on the Adriatic Sea surrounded by a moving legend: the love of Pizzomunno and Cristalda.
The symbol of Vieste is a huge 25 m high stack on the beach. It’s a piece of sedimentary rock that was eroded throughout the centuries taking this shape. This is what scientists say but the story told by local people is a little bit different.
They call it, Pizzomunno and they say it’s the name of a young man who was in love with a beautiful girl, Cristalda.
This feeling was so strong that the mermaids living in the Adriatic Sea were not able to seduce him with their beauty and their voice, because he didn’t want to cheat on his girlfriend. What did those fish-tailed chicks did as a revenge?
They waited for the couple to have some chilling time on the beach and then they suddenly came out of the water, kidnapped the girl and let her disappear in the bottom of the sea. Pizzomunno didn’t manage to save her, therefore he burst out crying out of desperation and was transformed into a rock.
According to the legend, they are allowed to meet each other once every hundred years.
Last year this story has achieved some popularity in Italy thanks to Max Gazzè, who sang a song about it at the most important music festival of the country, Sanremo’s Festival.
Vieste is a small town, in the province of Foggia, at the head of the most famous promontory of Puglia, the Gargano. Lying on the Adriatic Sea, with one of the most beautiful sandy promenade of the whole coast, it boasts a historical centre that is a medieval village overlooking the sea with alleys and glimpses of the blue sea.
A pearl and one of the most romantic walks in Puglia.
OUR UNESCO HERITAGE SITES: CASTEL DEL MONTE
CASTEL DEL MONTE: OUR UNESCO HERITAGE SITES. Why is it so different from the other medieval castles?
OUR UNESCO HERITAGE SITES: CASTEL DEL MONTE
It was 1996 when the Unesco committee decided to register for the first time among its World Heritage Sites two monuments of Apulia. One of these was Castel del Monte.
The octagon-shaped building, erected by Frederick II’s will, the only enlightened sovereign we’ve had in Southern Italy (so far… you never know) has been a puzzle since scholars have started showing interest in it: why was it built?
Why is it so different from the other medieval castles you can see in the area? Was it meant to protect or just to scream aloud „THE EMPEROR IS WATCHING YOU, EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF YOUR LIFE“? .
Some experts say it was just a defensive castle or „castrum“ in Latin, some other people state it was build in order to hide the Holy Grail, some others believe it was the Emperor’s sauna, you can also hear people saying it was a private university or a hunting residence.
Where is the truth? You can learn more if you book a flight to Bari and you dial our number.
UNESCO HERITAGE SITES: MONTE SANT’ANGELO
UNESCO HERITAGE SITES IN PUGLIA: MONTE SANT’ANGELO – VERY SUGGESTIVE
OUR UNESCO HERITAGE SITES: MONTE S. ANGELO
In 2011, 15 years after the inclusion of Castel del Monte and Alberobello in Unesco’s list, the committe creates a new category named “Longobards in Italy: Places of Power“, a group of seven World Heritage sites connected to the influence this Germanic people, also called „Lombards“, had in our peninsula.
One of these places is in Apulia: we’re talking about St. Michael’s Sanctuary in Monte Sant’Angelo, in the area of Gargano: National Park of Gargano, the green lung of Puglia
Why is this temple so important? Because, they say, the Archangel appeared four times (three during the 5th century, one during the 17th), kicked the pagan oracle of Chalcas out of that grotto, pushed his small foot so hard into the rock that he left its shape and then
he said something in Latin that sounded like “Where rocks are open, human sins are forgiven“ and he also added „you don’t need to consecrate this place, I did it myself“.
Still today, thousands of people every year go there for pilgrimage and say their prayers to that winged soldier sent by God to save us from Lucifer’s temptations.
Very suggestive!
