OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

  • עשינו סיור בחווה. הסבר על ההיסטוריה ועל חיי החווה היום ובעבר. המקום יפה ומקסים מסביב. המדריך מסביר בבהירות, ועונה על השאלות. כמו כן ראינו איך מכינים את סוגי המוצרלה והגבינות הקשורות ואז טעמנו (מוצרלה קשורה , כדורי מוצרלה, בוראטה, ספצליאטה). בקיצור מומלץ בחום.

    We enjoyed an excellent visit at this friendly, informative and interesting location. We started to really understand how extra virgin olive oil is made and why there are differences. Our host was lovely and her passion shone thru. Very genuine place. Would highly recommend.

    Wonderful experience learning how to make cheese! It was fun for both kids and adults and one of the true highlights of our trip to Puglia. I could not recommend this activity higher.

    During our stay in Puglia, we enjoyed a wonderful wine tasting and olive oil tour through Terra Che Vive. Both were fantastic! Marco was very responsive and thorough in organizing the events, and the experiences themselves were extraordinary. Neither tour felt "canned" or touristy. They were authentic, informative, and very enjoyable!

    If you want to add an interesting, fun and authentic experience to your visit to Puglia, I highly recommend signing up for the Mozzarella and Buratta making class. Marco and Umberto were so informative and fun. We walked away with just enough information to try making mozzarella at home. The tour of the Masseria and delicious lunch at the end were added bonuses. Book it, it's worth it!

    This was an excellent experience! We toured the farm first, met the cheese maker, and then made the cheese! Cheese making is an art and quite the process! We later lunched on the cheese we made , accompanied by wine and locally made deli meats. A fine experience and worth doing. We would do it again!
