About Apulia
Apulia rewards first-timers who get out of the city and let the landscape do the talking — whitewashed hill towns, trulli roofs, olive groves and two coastlines within a single day's drive. A good place to start is the Full-Day Tour from Lecce: Otranto, S.M. Leuca, Gallipoli & Galatina, which strings together the Salento's southern tip in one loop, while the E-bike Tour of Trulli in Alberobello & Locorotondo covers the Valle d'Itria's most photographed towns at an easy pace.
