Our team can arrange for bike and luggage transportation as well as rental, whatever the model desired (mountain bikes, eBikes and more) plus guided tours with a pro.
Hiking
From a leisurely stroll with feet in the sand to more challenging trails up on a mountain, Puglia’s varied landscape offers many opportunities to discover this region on foot and with our expert guides anyone is always in safe hands. No need to shlep around your luggage either, we can rent you a car for a self-drive itinerary or transfer it for you.
Horseback riding
There’s nothing quite like galloping on a white-sand beach at sunset; it’s a memory nobody can forget, and in Puglia it can become a reality. Aside from coastal rides, in Puglia you can also find many forest and country trails for kids and adults alike to enjoy.
Water sports and sailing
Being a peninsula, the sea is an integral part of Puglia’s identity: surf the waves, snorkel underwater or set sail on a yacht, whatever you choose it will not disappoint!

My husband, three year old son and I just returned home from an amazing week in Puglia. Authentic Puglia Tours was incredibly helpful with all of our planning, from the car rental to perfect activities that were good for our toddler and us (definitely not an easy task!)
– Jamie Andrew from U.S. | Facebook
AuthenticPugliaTours was highly responsive and helped us before, during and after the holiday with all those small issues that could easily have reduced our enjoyment. The digital map was new to us. We found it very helpful indeed and liked the additional information it carried. Thank you AuthenticPugliaTours, our holiday experience was definitely enhanced by your seemingly 24/7 personal support.

– Christine Bansner from U.S. | Facebook

– Annette Gerber from Switzerland | AuthenticPugliaTours Survey
I know how much work goes into planning these types of activities and AuthenticPugliaTours made it look effortless. There was a great balance in terms of sites and experiences. We learned so much about the local culture through food, art, nature and the people. It was an amazing experience and I would recommend it to anyone seeking a trip of a lifetime.
– Stacey Zuelly from U.S. | AuthenticPugliaTours Survey
This really showed the culture and how they live which is so different from us. ... [We visited a] farm where we made cheese. It was incredible to really see how it was made and learn how nothing is wasted and how everything is made/used daily. I also really enjoyed interacting with the animals. ...[I really appreciated] being given the opportunity to take some photographs. Vincenzo just pulled over to a group of trullis to let me take pictures, I did not even have to ask. I was very grateful and appreciative that he did this just because he already knew it was important to me...I really enjoyed everything.
