About this experience
Explore the picturesque surroundings of Monopoli with an expert local advisor. Visit exclusive rural churches, farmhouses and underground oil-mills in a land rich in history. The tour begins visiting Monopoli’s old town with a stop by its Duomo, the Basilica Concattedrale, just before diving in the most typical Puglia countryside, surrounded by an ocean of Olive trees and dry-stone walls. The tour goes on to discover old pathways towards the rural church of Spirito Santo, this thousand-years-old church in a grotto has been in use since the IXth century and it houses some medieval frescoes. The olive trees with their twisted trunks and the fortified farmouses (masserie) are the expression of the fascinating and glamorous country life. The tour ends with a relaxing bike ride and a tasting of artisanal ice-cream (sorbetto) away from urban traffic. Notes: the itineary includes the stop related to the attractions we are going to visit. The remaining part will be a pleasent ride.

What you'll see and do
Piazza Giuseppe Garibaldi
One of the most lively part of Monopoli is Garibaldi square in the heart of the old town, lined with cafes, restaurants, and bars. Piazza Garibaldi, currently the main tourist attraction in the city's old centre, for its beauty and sophistication, cultural interest and the presence of the most popular venues, derives historically from the silting up of the ancient port basin by the Normans around, according to sources, 1049.

Monopoli's Countryside by Bike: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Alberobello & Locorotondo.
How much does Monopoli's Countryside by Bike cost?
+
Prices start at $75 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Alberobello & Locorotondo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Monopoli's Countryside by Bike take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Alberobello & Locorotondo is not rushed.
Is Monopoli's Countryside by Bike worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Alberobello & Locorotondo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Monopoli's Countryside by Bike?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Monopoli's Countryside by Bike suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 7. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Monopoli's Countryside by Bike?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Alberobello & Locorotondo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Alberobello & Locorotondo and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Monopoli's Countryside by Bike start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Alberobello & Locorotondo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Alberobello & Locorotondo?
+
On Outty we rank every Alberobello & Locorotondo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Monopoli Shared tour by Gozzo boat to the Polignano caves, Boat tour from Monopoli to the Polignano caves with aperitif, Alberobello Guided Segway and Mini Golf Cart Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Alberobello & Locorotondo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Alberobello & Locorotondo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
