Head to the heel of the boot for your chance to discover one of Italy’s lesser known, but none-the-less beautiful landscapes. This destination is perfect if you wish to escape from the crowds of central Italy. Featuring stunning Mediterranean culture and a crystal clear sea, you’ll have plenty to enjoy on two wheels while discovering Puglia.

But don’t take our word for it! Time to read what our customers are saying about our leisure cycling holiday exploring Italy’s best-kept secret…

They can’t get enough of the sights
‘A well planned route to see all the most attractive areas and old towns in Southern Puglia. We expected a lot and were not disappointed. We will always remember the historic centres, the Trulli House and abundance of wild flowers – more than we have ever seen in Spring anywhere.’ Michael, Reading

‘The cycling was excellent – I just loved the varied scenery. Everything was organised to the last detail with wonderful personal service from the team at Saddle Skedaddle’ Sue, Hampshire

Our guides unparalleled support has been noted…
‘We have never done anything like this before. What an experience and what a great company to do it with. So supportive. So impressed with the telephone support and the encouraging texts and e-mails from various members of the team.’ Linda, Derbyshire

‘The cycling was excellent – I just loved the varied scenery. Everything was organised to the last detail with wonderful personal service from the team at Saddle Skedaddle. I felt very looked after and Tour Leader Alastair was always one step ahead. Saddle Skedaddle are brilliant – I really feel I know the team and have every confidence in them.’ Sue, Hampshire

‘I had a really great time, and I’d definitely recommend (in fact already have!) the tour to others. Everything felt very well organised, which was great for someone like me, who had never done a cycling holiday before, and wasn’t quite sure what to expect. Things like your pre-tour  phone call checking to see if I had any questions (even though I didn’t!) were much appreciated too.’ Sophie, Manchester

Accommodation that goes the extra mile…
‘All the hotels were located close to historical town village centres where there was always a good choice of restaurants for evening dinner. Breakfasts were always good and staff always helpful. The bikes arrived on time and everything was fully explained. We did not have any troubles with bikes or luggage or anything.’ Michael, Reading

‘Our 3 support staff were all very good. Accommodation was clean and comfortable with good sized rooms which were well furnished. Very difficult to pick a favourite day…all days had something special. Already contemplating Sardinia next spring!’ Lily, Kent
