Lecce : E-Bike tour at sunset with typical aperitif

About this tour

Glide through Lecce's countryside on an e-bike at golden hour, pedalling past silvery olive groves and along quiet rural lanes toward the Adriatic. You'll roll into the working fishing village of San Cataldo, then climb into the walled medieval settlement of Acaya, where a spread of regional cheeses, cured meats, fresh vegetables and local wine awaits. Three and a half hours capturing the light, landscape and genuine flavours of Puglia's Salento region.

What to expect

The route combines flat coastal stretches with gentle inland passages—the e-bike handles variable terrain without demanding fitness. You'll spend most time pedalling through working agricultural landscape, stopping briefly in San Cataldo to feel the sea air before climbing into Acaya's compact medieval core. The aperitif is substantial: proper local fare rather than token samples, paired with wines that reflect the region. Expect a leisurely pace, time to look around, and the specific light quality of late afternoon in southern Italy.
