OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

The property is great and the olive oil was very good

Excellent! We had a wonderful extra virgin olive oil tasting at Savoia - it was a special treat to taste olive oil from the ancient and majestic 800 year old trees we learned so much and the owners Giorgio and Rosaria are special people, keeping this incredible tradition alive so we can all enjoy such an extraordinary product

Our chef Mattia and his assistant Pia were a dream to work with. Creative, friendly, and the food was out of this world fantastic. One of the reasons we love to travel to Italy is for the amazing Culinary experience and our dinners with Terra Che Vive were some of the most exceptional.

Davvero consigliato. Abbiamo portato degli amici stranieri sia al tour enologico che a quello oleario. Entrambi notevoli, calorosa accoglienza e degustazioni ottime

No such a great experience when done authentically in the farmhouse (masseria) of Anna, fabulous hosting and guidance of Marco and the great funny grandma Francesca. Even our younger child (although 20 yrs old) who doesn't cook had actively participating and enjoyed the preparation of the various pastas. Ending the cooking session with a delicious lunch prepared by Anna from our hand making pasta accompanied with local wine and the local pasticciotto, and yes, Anna cherry 🍒 liquor was of a timely great finale. Thank you again Marco, Francesca and Anna . Would love to return back. Big hugs and love from us.

We attended the pasta making course which included a visit to the cheese factory and farm. The day was an absolute delight and we will certainly be booking another experience with Marco the next time we visit Puglia. Marco knew so much about the history of the area and was such a great host. The workers at the farm were extremely friendly and the food afterwards was delicious. Absolutely recommend this experience. It's these sort of things you remember. Thanks Marco.

Fantastic tour for both grown-ups and small ones! Our guide Marco is super welcoming and knowledgeable. The farm products are the best we've tasted during our 10 day tour in Italy! Highly recommended for anyone visiting Puglia!!!

We had such a wonderful time learning about how burrata and other cheeses were made. Our 3 children loved the experience and were all able to participate (ages 5 to 14). Taste testing was the best part! Would love to try another experience next time we are in Italy!

A spectacular morning in Puglia! Making cheese in the dairy, preparing pasta and bread with Grandma in the kitchen, touring the farm, and then a veritable feast for lunch. A must do experience!
