About Pula bike

Pula Bike is more than a bike rental

The facts: Two friends, business partners, and passionate cyclists enthusiasts from Bora nera company, Bojan and Florian wanted to make a difference. In 2013, they founded mobile bicycle tours and rental business Pula Bike on the premise that safety and service can easily work hand in hand with responsible tourism. It was a tiny garage and old delivery van with not much more than ambition, a dozen bicycles, few accessories and a very large helping of stubbornness – the bike tours and rental began.

In seeking out other people who had the same concern for safety and service, new staff were found and the Pula Bike team grew, as did our reputation. After five years of growing commitment, belief, action, and excellent collaboration, Florian has left the business on his own accord and started chasing new adventures. Since 2018, Bojan continued steering Pula Bike on his own, but the initial mission stayed the same.

Our mobile bicycle tours and rental is located in Pula, and serves the complete Istria region as well as local hotels, hostels and private accommodations. We also offer combo bike tours which includes an array of snorkeling, sea kayaking, swimming and other non-cycling activities. With our passion for exploring, learning and adventure we could simply not sit still. Expeditions became a passion. Each year we offer new, exciting and different routes.

Bicycle tours and rentals

Creating an offer focused on bicycle tours and rentals derives from a desire to provide the opportunity for tourists and all the other curious visitors to discover Pula and numerous beauties of nature that this countryside can offer. Also, equally important is our great love and passion for outdoor, cycling and nature that has certainly contributed to creating and developing this idea: what inspired us to share these amazing experiences with other people.

We enjoy providing a full guiding service and enabling cyclists of all levels to get the best rides easily without wasting their energy, time or getting lost. Cycling keeps everybody young in spirit! There is really no better way to get around, have fun, see new things, enjoy in the fascinating beauty of the country and stay healthy and active. Mens sana in corpore sano.

Our intention as a host company is to help you to enjoy your stay in Pula and to change your holiday into an fun and active vacation!

Pula Bike are helping lstria‘s environment by highly encouraging alternative, healthy and safe modes of transportation. If we treat it good by being eco-conscious, the peninsula’s environment stays a clean place, perfect for living, for ourselves and for next generations.

We continue to learn and grow – and we believe, wholeheartedly, that we are making the world a little bit better each year. We also see and interact with amazing people from amazing places and THAT is reward enough to keep doing this for years to come!

Pula bike philosophy

“A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. So he is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. But He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.”
