About this experience

Discover Ostuni and its countryside on an easy, engaging guided e-bike tour through nature, local traditions, and rural landscapes. You’ll ride across a plain of monumental olive trees—among the oldest in Puglia—while hearing curiosities about olive cultivation and how this land has shaped everyday life for centuries.

The tour includes guidance and full assistance: a local escort manages the route, stops, and support along the ride, keeping the pace relaxed and enjoyable. Join with your own e-bike at no extra cost, or use an e-bike provided on site with payment made locally (see Inclusions/Exclusions).

Along the way, you’ll visit an ancient rock village, exploring cave-like settlements, and enjoy a short walk to fully appreciate the site and the views. On the way back, you’ll enter Ostuni and ride through the white streets and town walls of the “White City.” The tour includes a 300 m section of uneven road.
