WHere WE’RE staying
We’ll be basing ourselves at the beautiful, five-star luxury Borgo Egnazia, named one of the 50 Best Hotels in the World.
Located in the heart of Puglia, Italy, this resort combines traditional Italian charm with modern sophistication. The hotel is designed to resemble a historic Apulian village, with whitewashed stone walls, winding alleyways, and lush gardens, offering an authentic and immersive experience of the region’s culture. During your stay, you can indulge in world-class amenities such as thier world-class spa, Michelin-starred dining, and both indoor & outdoor pools (the latter surrounded by olive groves.) The hotel’s attention to detail, from handcrafted furnishings to personalized service, creates a tranquil and elegant atmosphere, perfect for a luxurious escape.
This hotel does a brilliant job of providing you with an authentic essence of Puglia…while providing all the luxuries you hope for. Our previous Atlas attendees all raved about this property… and we know you will too!
WHAT WE’RE DOING
Our itineraries are carefully crafted to give you a balance of planned group activities and free time to spend at leisure. For example, one day we’ll take you to discover the town of Alberobello, but then that evening you’re free to do dinner wherever you choose (on your own or with other travelers!) Other days you’ll have mornings to yourself to relax at the pool/spa, before the group will come together for afternoon activities or dinners together.
But don’t worry… even with the free time you’re given, our team is here to equip you with ample suggestions and additional opportunities to sign up for so you’re never short of things to do. We’ll also be providing you with opportunities to extend your trip across Italy on both the front and back end of this trip!

WHO IS THIS TRIP FOR?
Atlas Adventures are built around a shared set of values that are rooted in kindness. We believe in prioritizing connection (whether with locals or fellow travelers), keeping an open mind through all experiences, and being adaptable with all that travel may bring. If the descriptions below sound like you, we want you to join us!:
You are extremely flexible, open minded, easy-going and always up for a range of experiences.
You’re a positive person who looks for the best in all circumstances.
You enjoy meeting new people and are keen to make friends on this trip.
You desire to be a better traveler: respecting other people, other cultures + the planet along the way.
UNIQUE CONSIDERATIONS FOR PUGLIA
You’re a luxury lover: While the area typically offers more basic/simple accommodation, we’re staying in the most comfortable, luxury hotel in the entire region (where no modern comfort has been missed!) This property is highly sought after and a destination in and of itself!
You’re up for car rides. We’ll be taking rustic, country roads to venture to these local experiences. Those who are prone to car sickness should proceed with caution.
You enjoy a wide range of food! While we do our best to accommodate dietary requirements, please note we’ll be making the most of the local cuisine (which is heavy into seafood, grains and dairy).
You want to relax! Puglia isn’t a big city with hustle + bustle. We’ll be focusing on slower-paced moments and appreciating the simple luxuries along the way.
