OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

  • Fantastic event! Marco and Davide were wonderful hosts and the food and wine were delicious. The atmosphere was quaint starting with a glass of wine in the olive grove, to the baking of the bread in a historic oven in a Truli to making of the pasta and then cooking everything. Highly recommend it!

    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!

    My family and I really enjoyed our experience. The opportunity to be “hands on” in the cheese making process was great. Marco was warm and welcoming. The property is beautiful. Highly recommend.

    J'ai eu l'occasion de faire deux expériences: après avoir adoré le cours de pâtes dans un trullo, j'ai réservé la visite d'un producteur d'huile d'olive. Dans les deux expériences, les hôtes étaient extrêmement chaleureux et généreux. Marco est très disponible et à l'écoute. Expériences incroyables!
