What to expect
You'll meet your instructor and collect your e-bike and helmet, then set off into rolling countryside dotted with traditional settlements and agricultural land. The electric motor takes the strain out of climbs and lets you focus on the landscape—sea views, stone farmhouses, and neat rows of citrus and olives. After roughly ninety minutes of steady riding, you'll arrive at the acetaia. The owner will walk you through his lemon grove and vinegar production methods, then pour tastings of his balsamic. It's intimate and unhurried, with genuine conversation rather than a scripted spiel.
