Great day of bicycle riding. The heat is significant so bring water and be careful on the narrow roads. Marco is a great tour guide. His English is almost perfect and he is a local so he knows history and geography really well. We stopped for a café Leccese and refreshing gelato along the way. He catered the trip to our needs. We went all the way to Gallipoli with some great stops along the way and great scenery. This is a must do bike tour. Do not miss it. The E bikes are great and pretty new and have plenty of battery reserve so you won’t run out of power if you need it.
