When you start planning a cycling vacation, one of the things to consider is which kind of tour is right for you, whether a self-guided or a guided tour.
Both experiences are amazing but very different at the same time. 

​Self-guided cycling tours

Self - guided bike tours

The self-guided cycling tours are for those people who want to be independent. They are very popular for their flexibility. As the name suggests, on a self-guided cycling trip you have control over your holiday: you can start when you're ready, you can cycle at your own pace and you can stop when and where you like, be it for a 'caffe leccese' (iced coffee with almond milk), for a swim in the beautiful sea of Salento or for a visit at one of our beautiful cathedrals. Anyway, self-guided doesn't mean that you are left alone taking care of logistic and worrying about every little detail. We will always be by your side booking the accommodation, transporting your luggage from hotel to hotel, providing you with all necessary information material and assistance during your cycling holiday.

GUIDED CYCLING TOURS

Guided bike tours

On a guided cycling tour, instead, you'll be part of a group, sharing memories, and you'll have the chance to get to know people from all over the world.
You'll be accompanied by an expert local guide that will lead you every step of the way from the beginning of the tour until the very end. Our guides will keep you safe, adjusting your bike correctly and dealing with flats or other minor emergencies. They will provide you with daily trip briefings and make sure that the pace is suitable for everyone. They will share with you their knowledge, making your travel experience much richer and providing you with an insider’s point of view on everything, from the nicest place to stop and visit to where to eat the best 'focaccia' in all Apulia.

Gravel bike tours

Are you a gravel enthusiast?
Perhaps you may be interested in one of our self-guided gravel tours we offer in Apulia! We have conceived four gravel itineraries rich in history and natural beauty that will let you discover some hidden nooks of our wonderful region.
You will cycle independently surrounded by nature, mostly on secondary paved and unpaved roads. As for our other self-guided bike tours, we will be there to assist you from the booking stage to your departure, doing our best to offer an unforgettable cycling holiday. On these tours we offer our luggage transport service, as usual, but you can also choose the backpacking option, if you prefer.
