We thoroughly enjoyed this ride. Ancient olive groves, vineyards, lovely Trulli houses, beautiful wildflowers and then a scenic coastline. The e-bikes were excellent as some days were hilly and we had some headwinds. Accommodation was varied and of good standard.

Just a wonderful tour with plenty of hiking and history. You’re left to your own pace and transport, for the most part, but are provided with wonderful accommodations and private rides to bridge the rough spots. Just the right amount of freedom and structure for us.
