One of the BIG highlights of our 8 days in Puglia. Our leader Daniale (sp?) was knowledgeable, personable and passionate about the history and culture of olive groves of Puglia. He was a great teacher and the pace was just right. Our advice: do it!!
Daniele is an excellent tour guide who was very accommodating to our group. He had excellent English, which is rare in this area. The area is beautiful and his presentation skills made the tour very interesting.
Now that we're back in NY and thinking fondly of our days in Puglia, one of our favorite memories is the bike tour with Daniele. Super attuned to what we wanted to do ...and made that match our skill level:) Beautiful ride through a park, with the reward of gorgeous sea views...it's what we came to experience, and this was a perfect morning.
Daniele was so knowledge and made the whole day fun for our kids ages 9, 12, 14 and 16. The ride was a comfortable pace. My youngest got tired near the end and he helped and even pushed her to make it easier. Olive oil tour was very interesting and we bought maybe cans to bring home. He even walked us to his favorite lunch spot and helped us order!
Great fun cycling around Puglia with Daniele. He told us lots about the area and the nature and geology too. Lovely easy lanes to cycle along. The lunch he had organised at a local masseria was delicious and he ended up giving us a lift back to where we were staying as we had no car.
