You can’t go any fur­ther south-east than Ita­ly.

Indi­vi­du­al arri­val in Alberobello
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Indi­vi­du­al arri­val at the start­ing hotel in Alber­obel­lo. Alber­obel­lo is par­ti­cu­lar­ly famous for its coni­cal buil­dings (trul­li) — enti­re dis­tricts are made up of such trul­li. The town is a UNESCO World Heri­ta­ge Site. 
Alber­obel­lo — Ostuni
Distanz: 35 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Cycle tour through the Val­le dIt­ria, one of the most beau­tiful cul­tu­ral land­scapes in the south. Today’s stage desti­na­ti­on is Ostu­ni, the white town with a magni­fi­cent view of the sea. 
Ostu­ni — Avetrana/Manduria
Distanz: 60 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
From Ostu­ni, the rou­te takes you through oli­ve gro­ves, viney­ards and fruit orchards to Ave­tra­na, a small town stee­ped in histo­ry on the old Via Appia. This anci­ent Roman road once led from Rome via Taran­to and Oria to Brin­di­si. Today, only a few sec­tions of the old paved road have been pre­ser­ved as Via Appia Antica. 
Avetrana/Manduria — Gallipoli
Distanz: 60 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
You lea­ve Ave­tra­na and soon reach the sea. After a detour to Tor­re Coli­me­na, fol­low the coas­tal road with its num­e­rous for­ti­fied towers to Por­to Ces­areo. Con­ti­nue along the Ioni­an coast to Gal­li­po­li. This Kale Polis (beau­tiful city) of Greek ori­gin is the real urban sur­pri­se on the Ioni­an Sea. Find your way through the city­’s maze of alley­ways, whe­re seve­ral churches and a quaint muse­um await your visit. Obser­ve the omni­pre­sent pro­fes­sio­nal fisher­men, who con­ti­nue to pro­vi­de an authen­tic image of the city. 
Gal­li­po­li — San­ta Maria di Leuca/surroundings
Distanz: 50 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Today you will reach the sou­thern­most point of Salen­to and at the same time the waters­hed to the Ioni­an Sea at San­ta Maria di Leu­ca. The vil­la­ge is best known for its pil­grimage church. Around the turn of the cen­tu­ry, many magni­fi­cent vil­las were built here, which are an abso­lu­te archi­tec­tu­ral high­light due to their ima­gi­na­ti­ve to absurd shapes. Eccen­tric end-of-the-world lovers sett­led here to enjoy the tran­quil­li­ty and the sea in the remo­te location. 
San­ta Maria di Leuca/surroundings — Otranto
Distanz: 50 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Today we tra­vel along the sou­thern­most coast of the Adria­tic Sea to the Mes­s­a­pian city of Otran­to. It is con­side­red an art-his­to­ri­cal gem in the midst of a char­ming land­scape. The old town is sur­roun­ded by migh­ty city walls and boasts an impres­si­ve Habs­burg cast­le. On the way to Otran­to, you have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to visit the famous Grot­ta Zin­zu­lu­sa, the only coas­tal grot­to open to the public. San­ta Ces­area Ter­me, known for its hydro­the­ra­peu­tic cures and radio­ac­ti­ve mud the­ra­pies, also deser­ves a stopover. 
Otran­to — Lecce
Distanz: 50 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
First along the Adria­tic coast, then through count­less oli­ve gro­ves to Lec­ce. Lec­ce, the capi­tal of Salen­to, is a city of gre­at charm, which impres­ses abo­ve all with the undis­pu­ted beau­ty of its buil­dings and churches. Along­side Nap­les, Lec­ce is the baro­que metro­po­lis of the south, and it is not for not­hing that it is known as Lec­ce Baro­que. Around 30 churches and count­less palaces await your visit. Don’t for­get to pay a visit to the amphi­thea­ter and the Roman thea­ter, both of which were pro­ba­b­ly built under Emper­or Augustus. 
Indi­vi­du­al departure
Distanz: 0 km Höhe (+): 0m Höhe (-): 0m
Indi­vi­du­al depar­tu­re or pos­si­bi­li­ty of extension.

Other notes
To ensu­re a stress-free start to the trip, we recom­mend arri­ving at the start­ing point by ear­ly evening in most cases. Some tours start as ear­ly as mid­day, in which case we recom­mend arri­ving the day befo­re and will be hap­py to book an extra night for you at the same time. The indi­vi­du­al return jour­ney takes place on the last day of the tour. The kilo­me­ters are appro­xi­ma­te and may dif­fer from the actu­al kilo­me­ters cover­ed. This tour is not sui­ta­ble for peo­p­le with redu­ced mobility.

We recom­mend that you do not orga­ni­ze your arri­val and depar­tu­re until after this dead­line has passed.

For this reason, you will have a local cont­act per­son on our indi­vi­du­al acti­vi­ty tours who will be hap­py to pro­vi­de you with infor­ma­ti­on and, as sta­ted in the tra­vel docu­ments, can be cont­ac­ted in an emergency.
