"Alberobello is a wonderful place.
However, it is also a tourist rip-off from the many souvenir dealers who sell things as handmade, which it cannot be. Or why do all the dealers have exactly the same towels made by grandma? (If you are out and about in the morning you can see the delivery). There are only a few shops that offer real work. Here emphasis should be placed on real handcraft, that would also be much more interesting. It would also be worth seeing how a trulli is built, there is no example of this until there is a really handmade man who builds mini trullis and explains it using an example.
Fundamentally more history would be nice instead of the rip-off souvenir shops"
