The south-eastern region of Apulia has quite a story to tell, with eras of prosperity under the Greeks, Romans, Ottomans and Spaniards, just to name a few! This criss-crossing of cultures over time contributed to the region’s dialects, flavourful cuisine and distinctive architecture. Currently Italy’s best-kept secret for outstanding cycling, Apulia ranges from the crossroads of Monopoli to enchanting Alberobello, offering superlative rides through sparsely-inhabited areas. Ancient olive groves, Mediterranean flora and invigorating coastal roads provide supreme views and, 'Amore', one cannot help but fall in love!
