I went on this tour with my partner; cycling through the Salento, villages and coastline was amazing, beautiful views, we had a swim at a beautiful beach, meet very kind and friendly people. I truly recommend it!
A great week cycling around the southern part of Puglia, really quiet roads, wonderful coastline but most memorable are very incredible olive groves and other inland scenery . Really good, very well organised, friendly staff.
This is the best way you can spend a day in Salento--in the company of locals who love their territorio, pedaling through fields of olive trees and poppies between one tiny town and the next, stopping here and there to learn a bit of local histories, and finally jumping into the sea at the southern most tip of the peninsula for a picnic on the beach! I can't recommend Salento Bici Tour enough--for the care they put into their itineraries, for the characters and stories you'll remember for a long time, and for the pure pleasure of exploring this magical corner of the world on a bike.
We spent a full day bicycling with Carlos.It was a relaxing enjoyable day touring around Salento . Carlos is knowledgeable and we learned a lot about the life in the area through authentic small villages and the food. Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to take a cooking class with Carlo's mom ( a reason to come back). We had a wonderful day.
My 13 yo son and I did this tour (i think it was this one) with ernesto last week. It was a great day out. We first stopped at an amazing sandwich place to pick up lunch. The bikes were great. We biked out of the city and then on back roads. We stopped for lunch at an abandoned masseria. We then continued to a restored church and museum. It was great fun. Ernesto was really patient with my son. Highly recommend.
