ITALY’S BEST KEPT SECRET?
ANSWER: PUGLIA!
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to eat in a cave? No, no, not that kind of cave… We’re talking about a 5 star luxury hotel & restaurant cave, with the beauty of the Basilicata region all around you, as your waiter (“cameriere”) presents you with a bottle of the finest Apulian wine…
Glide past the stucco, and through hidden farmlands; along the sea, near crystal clear waters. Coast into Monopoli, a fisherman’s village, and wide-eye at panoramic views all the way to the southern tip of Italy!
There’s never been a better time to visit Puglia, as the region develops, the life changing experiences do too and we’ve taken full advantage of them, before the rest of the world finds out!
Roll up and gently down the hills on a state of the art road bike (or brand new e-bike!). Perk your eyes & ears as the aromas of Orchiette get whisked by the wind and across your senses, travel through our destinations in heaven all the way to Lecce, the Florence of Southern Italy, making an experience that only this local land has to share.
When your stomach pleads to have a taste of those whisking Orchiette delights, we’ll bring you to your very own tutor who will teach you how to make it. With a full stomach, you can rest your legs as you relax in our very own private palace, and up a glass elevator to a private lounge where you can reminisce on all you’ve seen (and tasted)!
Cycling and Italy go together at the perfect speed, and there’s never been a better time to cycle through it’s stunning towns & local villages. Or walk the path if that’s your preference; our entire trip compliments both speed junkies & foot travelers. This is true immersion.
Alright, we agree: the truth is, cycling anywhere is amazing – but it will never be the same after your tires have had a taste of the Puglia region, and you’ve had a taste of it’s finest cuisine. Private Italy, at it’s best.
