OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

We visited a lovely Masseria where they toured us around the farm and showed us the process of making mozzarella and burrata. Marco was extremely informative! The cheese was so delicious and we were able to have a nice lunch of bread, cheese, meats, and wine afterwards. Would 100% recommend for an authentic Puglian experience. Grazie Marco!

Our dairyman for the day experience was truly enjoyable! We learned so much about the process to make different kinds of mozzarella/Burrata and got “recompense “ for the work we did, deliciously. I have a greater appreciation for eating and enjoying Burrata/Mozzarella after spending the day with Roberto and Marco. If you are in Puglia, this a must not miss experience!!

This is an amazing experience if you’re keen to learn about olive oil. Incredibly interesting to see how it was made historically and currently in the modern day, tasting different oils is also really interesting, and there is so much more to it than you would think. Rosaria is a fabulous host, and there is nothing that she does not know about Olive oil! A lovely little goodie bag send you on your way, and no pressure too but anything else, but loads to choose from is you want to. Can’t recommend this experience highly enough!

We made our own pasta with Gaetano, it was a great experience! Our children (5 & 6) loved him, the cooking and the result as well! It was great fun and very delicious... he prepared several courses with tasty ingredients from his own garden. We can highly recommend the pasta making class!

ביקרנו בהדרכתו של מרקו בחווה לא רחוק ממרטינה פרנקה. הוא נתן לנו סקירה על האזור ועל ההיסטוריה של המקום. ראינו איך מכינים מוצרלה ובוראטה. למדנו איך מכינים פסטה מקומית. לבסוף קיבלנו ארוחת טעימות של גבינות, נקניקים ויין. מרקו נחמד ואדיב. נהננו מאוד ואנחנו ממליצים בחום.

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!
