Cheese farm tour - Great experience! booking was very easy. Our guide was sweet and knowledgable. Toured the farm, saw how they make their cheeses, and had great lunch at the end. Definitely recomended!!

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.

Marco selected three excursions for our family and all three were excellent. Marco quickly responded to all our emails and sent reminders several days before each excursion. Highly recommend his services.

Totally loved the olive oil tasting experience. Rosaria, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and informative about the entire process and the types of olive oil. The tour was so thorough. Would highly recommend this to anyone traveling to Bari and surrounding area.

Un addio al nubilato da ricordare con gli aneddoti di Nonna Checchina.
Ambiente accogliente, immerso nella natura e nei trulli.
Organizzazione impeccabile.
Consiglio vivamente per chi ha voglia di conoscere le tradizioni culinarie del nostro territorio e vuol trascorrere una giornata in natura.
Garzie Marco, grazie Terra che Vive!

Organizzazione perfetta. Oltre ogni aspettativa. Magica escursione in bici. Spettacolare degustazione di prodotti enogastronomici pugliesi. Davvero squisiti! Con i bambini abbiamo vissuto ore spensierate a contatto con la natura pedalando tra gli ulivi millenari della Puglia. Assolutamente più che consigliata! Grazie per questa esperienza sensoriale a 360° gradi.....

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!
