quando incontri persone speciali per caso! intitolerei così l'esperienza con Carlo e i suoi collaboratori. Persone appassionate del loro lavoro, della loro terra e dell'incontro con gli altri. Abbiamo concordato prima del nostro arrivo in Puglia varie gite ed esperienze (biciclettate, kayak, aperitivi, barca a vela, spiaggia, etc) perchè eravamo un gruppo numeroso con ragazzini vivaci! Il team di Carlo ci ha soddisfatto pienamente, dando un sapore speciale a questo viaggio, come i fichi assaggiati lungo le pedalate! Se stare sdraiati al sole non vi basta... lo consiglio assolutamente!Bellissima esperienza. Carlo professionale e molto simpatico e le sue assistenti davvero sempre pronte a soddisfare ogni esigenza o capriccio di noi clienti. I posti sono stupendi. Noi abbiamo particolarmente apprezzato giro intorno a Leuca. Tour adatti anche ai bambini. Consigliatissimo!

Leuke aangename fietstocht met goede fietsen. Mooie omgeving en goede service van salento bici tour.Preparazione, correttezza e bellezza dei luoghi. Abbiamo potuto raggiungere la riserva naturale percorrendo vie lontane dal traffico ed immerse nella natura. La visita è stata molto bella con guide preparate e ristoro attento alle mie esigenze alimentari.
