Ciao. We’re Mireille & Julia. For years, Puglia has been part of our lives — not just as a holiday destination, but as a place we kept returning to, working in, exploring, and slowly getting to know beyond the obvious.

Over time, friends started asking us the same questions: Where should we stay? Which towns are actually worth it? What should we skip? Where do locals really go for dinner?

That’s how Puglia Edit started.

Not as another travel guide, but as the kind of advice we’d give friends planning a trip here themselves.

Because most information about Puglia falls into two extremes:
either written by locals who naturally experience the region differently, or by travel creators repeating the same shortlist of places over and over again.

We understand both sides.

We know what international travelers are actually looking for when they come to Puglia — beautiful towns, good food, atmosphere, slower days, places that still feel authentic — but we also know from experience where to find those things without ending up in an overhyped version of Italy.

Our recommendations come from years of being here: the restaurants we return to ourselves, the beach clubs worth spending an entire afternoon at, the towns that are better after 7pm, and the places that are honestly not worth the detour.

No rushed bucket lists.
No copied “hidden gems.”
No sponsored must-sees.

Just thoughtful routes, honest recommendations, and the version of Puglia we genuinely think is worth experiencing.

Andiamo. 🤍
