E bike tour from Alberobello to Locorotondo round trip
Description
Scenic guided e-bike loop from Alberobello to Locorotondo through the Valle d’Itria, riding quiet country roads lined with dry-stone walls, trulli, vineyards, wheat fields, oak trees, and olive groves. A local escort manages the route, stops, and full assistance throughout the ride, so you can cycle at a relaxed pace with photo breaks. In Locorotondo, explore the lime-whitewashed historic center and its typical cummerse houses, discovering why the buildings are whitewashed and hearing local curiosities along the way. A homemade gelato stop is planned: gelato is paid locally at the shop. Then cycle back through the countryside to Alberobello, where you’ll discover how trulli are built and why some roofs feature painted symbols, before reaching a panoramic viewpoint for memorable photos. Join with your own e-bike at no extra cost, or use an e-bike available on site with payment made locally (see Inclusions/Exclusions).

Rocco the owner is an excellent guide. Mends chains if they come off and always looks out for safety. Lovely route through the heart of the countryside not often seen.
Beautiful scenery and wonderful Guide! Rocco was very personal and made sure that everyone was safe and enjoyed the whole experience. Highly recommend this E bike ride through olive groves and the ever changing countryside filled with trullis and wild flowers.
Rocco was at tremendous tour guide, he took the time to make the experience a great one. And he is very good a taking photos
We were with Rocco together with his 12-year-old daughters with really great pleasure. The pleasant and simple itinerary for mothers and daughters, Rocco welcoming but above all sympathetic to always "pick up" all crew members. We felt safe thanks to the bike that closed the line and guaranteed support for any need. I highly recommend it.
Highly recommended tour. Rocco our guide made me live a fantastic experience my daughter and our friends. Around little traffic paths surrounded by trulli and nature. In addition to the beauty of the places we appreciated all the curiosities that Rocco told us. We visited alberobello and locorotondo. With ice cream stop. The bikes were new with padded saddles and each equipped with a baby carrier with water. I also appreciated that for added safety a moped followed the whole line. We had so much fun. I will definitely recommend it to friends.
Ride through countryside highly recommended. Beautiful countryside. Guide was great and informative. Loved that there was a motorcyle behind us for safety reasons. The only negative is that it took much longer than anticipated. There were 10 riders which were too many to keep track of and fix chains etc. I recommend having the bikes ready as people arrive and limiting the group to a sizeable amount
Our guide, Rocco, made sure that the bikes and helmets fit and we were off for a tour of the Val d'Itria between Alberabello and Locorotondo. Rocco led us through the trulli area on mostly single lane, walled lanes with very little automobile traffic. Great scenery and approriate narration of the local history when we stopped. Excellent tour!
