OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

  • Cheese your and tasting put a nice finishing touch to our visit to Apulia. Very informational, to die for fresh mozzarella and burrata, lovely masseria. The light cheese and meats were obviously exceptional. Wished it was a smaller crowd but still very enjoyable. DO NOT LEAVE WOTHOUT TRYING THE VANILLA ICE CREAM.

    Wonderful experience! Tour of cheese making facility was extremely interesting and then the farm made it all so real. The cheese, meats, bread, wine, water and dessert afterwards were delicious. Well worth the drive and price.

    Esperienza unica! Abbiamo fatto il tour caseario presso l'antica masseria Madonna dell'Arco. Marco è stato un'ottima guida, cortese e preparato, qualità rare ai giorni nostri. Eccellente anche la degustazione dei prodotti tipici sui quali ovviamente non avevo dubbi. Sicuramente mi rivolgerò a loro per altri tour Esperienza che vivamente consiglio di fare.

  • We had such a wonderful time learning about how burrata and other cheeses were made. Our 3 children loved the experience and were all able to participate (ages 5 to 14). Taste testing was the best part! Would love to try another experience next time we are in Italy!

    This was such an enjoyable evening. Marco was a brilliant host and we learned so much. The wine was fantastic as were the snacking boards, of which, much of the produce came from the property itself. Highly recommend!

    Absolutely brilliant food experience! From start to finish, the orecchiette pasta making course was our favourite holiday activity. Anna and Francesca were wonderful hosts and teachers, alongside Marco who was a brilliant translator and helped make the experience so easy! It was extremely in depth, we learned at least 8 different types of orecchiette. As it was just us, it felt like we could ask every question that popped into our heads! To top it off, Marco and Anna arranged for us to have our lunch in our own Trulli onsite! We were given a fabulous meal of breads, charcuterie and of course, the pasta we’d just prepared- topped off with vino, gorgeous traditional Puglian desserts and Anna’s homemade liqueurs. This was without doubt the best course we’ve ever done in Italy. We will be booking again with Marco and Terra Che Vive on our next trip. Worth every penny.

    Esperienza meravigliosa all'interno di una Masseria zona Martina Franca. Ho richiesto disponibilità per fare un corso di pasta fresca e Marco ci ha trovato la soluzione perfetta! Con poco preavviso ha organizzato il corso e la visita guidata organizzata esclusivamente per me e mio marito con pranzo finale. Abbiamo scoperto tante cose interessanti e trascorso due ore davvero piacevoli. Super consigliato, il prezzo è più che corretto per l'esperienza fatta. Grazie mille ancora
