We had another great tour with Valeria, this time in Ostuni! She was so patient with us as we got lost on our way to finding her, (LOL) and then showed us around this beautiful city with great knowledge and passion. We didn’t want to leave once the tour was over, so Valeria showed us her favorite places to get dinner and drinks. What a magical time it was. Treat yourself to a tour with Valeria today! Buon viaggio!

We rented 1 mtb and 1 e-mtb. The material was super good! We also got a lock and a repair kit per mtb. The service was super friendly and helped us to get a nice tour. We cycled via the aquaduct, which was a very nice route!

The tour, departing from Via Porto, in the historic center of Monopoli, is a journey through time among fortified farmhouses, ancient hypogeum oil mills, frescoed rock churches and ancient olive trees. An emotional journey that will make you discover authentic places of this foreshortening in Puglia, along country roads and ancient sheep tracks.

A relaxing cycle ride through nature, in the shade of centuries-old olive and carob trees, almond trees, figs and prickly pears, along secondary roads and old beaten earth paths lined with dry stone walls.

I highly recommend this bike tour through the Monopoli countryside. The thousand year old olive trees were amazing and the stops at the Masseria with the grotto church and other surprises were incredible and the guides were so informative. I learned a lot and had so much fun.. The tour exceeded my expectations and ended with a lovely tasting of Apulian products with the ability to purchase them. Truly a special experience!!

Jessica and her family were lovely and they prepared us well for the activity. Picking up trash from the sea was rewarding and the free watermelon and peaches after were a nice touch. We thought the snorkelling would have lasted maybe 30 mins longer and communication was sometimes difficult with the instructor who didn’t fully speak English, but this wasn’t too much of a problem - he was clearly a professional and a lot of fun. Good activity to kick off your morning in Monopoli!
