Experiences

Experiences in Salento and Puglia

After a morning on the bike you'll often want to do something else: a winery tasting, a mozzarella workshop, a boat trip to the sea caves. Here are the experiences I can add to your rental or tour, sorted by type and area.

How it works

  • Pick your experiences in the tour builder, together with the bikes.
  • I check dates and availability and prepare a tailor-made quote.
  • No online payment: you decide after my reply.

Frequently asked questions

Are the experiences included in the rental?
No, they're optional. You pick them in the tour builder and, once I've checked availability, I put together a tailor-made quote with the bikes.
What language are they in?
Each card shows the guaranteed languages. Where it says "on request" I can ask for a guide in your language, sometimes for a supplement.
Can I book an experience on a day without the bike?
Yes. Many people keep one for their rest day, like a trip to Matera or a cooking class at a masseria.

Add them to your ride

In the tour builder you choose route, bikes and experiences, and I reply with one plan.
