OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

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.

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!

We went to Extravergine Savoia masseria and did an Olive Oil tour that was very nice. We saw the olive trees and picked some olives. We also saw the old masseria that was underground and then tasted different kinds of olive oils. Rosaria was an excellent host with so many information and such a lovely character. We definitely recommend going to the Savoia if you love olive oil! On another note, Marco was very helpful to find us the perfect olive oil tour in Puglia!

Bellissima esperienza. Marco è una buonissima fonte di ispirazione e ha tante iniziative da proporre. Noi abbiamo preso parte alla preparazione di mozzarelle e burrata sotto la guida del casaro Umberto. Attività consigliatissima. VOTO 10!

We booked the private chef to cater a dinner for nine people at the villa we were staying at in Puglia. It was genuinely the highlight of our trip - the team was very friendly, professional and flexible, and the food was absolutely delicious. One of our party was gluten free, and it was no trouble at all. Would highly, highly recommend.

Wow what a special night to remember! Terre Che Vive and Marco really treated us well by arranging a special pizza making night for my friend’s birthday at our trulli villa. Marco and Davide setup early and literally took care of everything. They shared the best tips and tricks for making delicious authentic pizza and also treated us to some local side dishes. This is a must do at your rental or go to where they are. Both Marco and Davide are very talented at what they do and all around very kind wonderful people who made us feel right at home in Puglia!

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!
