A salt-scented wind off the Adriatic pushes you along Bari’s Lungomare as bicycle wheels click over flat cobbles and narrow alleys. On a three-hour electric-assisted route through Bari Vecchia, the guide steers you from the basilica’s ancient stones to market stalls where focaccia is torn open steaming, and panzerotti are folded like handheld suns. The city’s limestone buildings shoulder the streets, sun-warmed and carrying the low, persistent hum of daily life.
