"Bari needs cleaning from the homeless and crime especially in the city central, train station & very touristy parts. Tourists leaflets and information desks should be available from train station/airport and main bus station for maps/popular rated points of interest etc. I had to do alot of my own Google research before coming hence I enjoyed but probably would not have as there wasn't any info for travellers. Alot of the taxi drivers are rude and rip tourists travellers off by over charging....there should be better app system for hotel owner/apartment owners to use if their guests request a service as alot of the apps are robotic and do not understand even after many attempts.
Feeling safe is a all round must especially for tourists/trallvers we wittness one late evening a woman having her bag stolen with many on lookers waiting at the central bus station, it was very frightening indeed and the police did absolutely nothing, very very shocking as we watched the women scream/cry and beg for the police help/support. It's awful....I sadly wouldn't come back & feel very sorry for the true Italian people.
