Puglia, the southern Italy region often called the heel of the boot, was named by
BikeToursDirect as one of 8 hot destinations for bicycle travel in 2013. They offer four different 7 day
Puglia bike tours with ratings from leisurely to moderate. Three of these tours also take in nearby
Matera,
the Basilicata town known for its sassi district, a ravine filled with
cave dwellings and churches. The Puglia tours offer choices of
Alberobello with its unique
trulli, the
Salento Peninsula, a castle and wine tour that takes in the octagonal castle,
Castel del Monte, or a self-guided tour.

Europe by Choice is leading a deluxe guided
Puglia and Sorrento tour
in late September, a great time to visit both of these places. The tour
starts with five nights in Puglia and then moves to the town of
Sorrento for touring the scenic
Amalfi Coast.
