What to expect
The most famous and important monument, the starting and ending point of every sightseeing tour is the Amphitheater. The Temple, situated in the Forum, is dedicated to goddess Roma and Emperor Augustus...
Roman Theater
During our bike tour, we will visit the iconic Forum Romanum, the ancient heart of the city. This historic square was the center of public life in Roman times, hosting markets, political gatherings, and religious ceremonies. Exploring the Forum by bike allows us to effortlessly soak in its rich history while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of the surrounding streets.
One of Pula’s must-see landmarks is the Kaštel, a historic fortress perched on a hill above the city. Built in the 17th century by the Venetians to defend the harbor, it now offers breathtaking panoramic views of Pula and its surroundings. Biking up to the fortress is the perfect blend of activity and history, leading you to a place that tells tales of battles, strategy, and the city’s powerful past.
Fort Bourguignon
We continue our cycling tour toward one of Pula’s most impressive Austro-Hungarian fortresses – Fort Bourguignon. Nestled by the sea and partially hidden by forest, this powerful 19th-century military structure tells the story of the city’s rich defensive past. The ride to the fort offers the perfect blend of nature and history, taking us through lesser-known but truly fascinating parts of Pula.
Lungomare
We continue along the Lungo Mare seaside path toward Verudela, passing pine forests and beautiful beaches. If desired, we stop for a drink at a beach bar by the sea. The tour ends with a relaxed ride back to the city center.
The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
