About Walking and Cycling in Puglia

Puglia is one of Italy's great undiscovered corners - a sun-drenched region of whitewashed hilltop towns, ancient olive groves, red earth vineyards and a coastline that stretches along both the Adriatic and Ionian seas. While it may lack the tourist hordes of other Italian destinations, that is very much part of its appeal. This is Italy at its most authentic, and it is best explored on foot or by bike.

Days on the trail or in the saddle might include cycling through a patchwork of vineyards and groves punctuated by sandstone castles and quirky cone-roofed trulli, walking ancient paths along idyllic stretches of coastline, and wandering the cobbled backstreets of Lecce — the elegant Florence of the south — with a gelato in hand. Along the way you'll encounter Roman ruins, laidback fishing villages, beautiful medieval old towns and some of Italy's warmest and most welcoming people.
 
With luggage transfers and carefully selected accommodation arranged in advance, our Puglia trips allow you to focus entirely on the experience of the region. Whether you choose a self-guided journey at your own pace or a small group trip with an expert guide, walking and cycling in Puglia offers an unforgettable combination of natural beauty, rich history and outstanding local cuisine.

From the Valle d'Itria and the trulli of Alberobello to the baroque splendour of Lecce and the sea caves of Polignano a Mare, Puglia rewards travellers with a languid Mediterranean pace, unique landscapes and moments that are truly unforgettable.
