What people love about Puglia Tours from Bari
- Matera & Apulia Private 5 Day Tour
Amazing Experience. Highly recommended!
- Highlights of Puglia
We enjoyed the free time and Sonia was always on hand to help with ideas, we also enjoyed the destinations of the tour which were included. 2 nights in each stop was perfect and a minimum stay.
- Cycle Puglia
This was a fabulous trip. It was though billed as an “easy” grade ride. The hills we encountered on days 1 and 2 of the cycling were way in excess of easy. One was something like a 1 in 6 ascent on a main road over a full kilometre. We did this same ascent twice in an hour or so. Sorry but this was not in line with the grading.
