OUR GUESTS’ WORDS

  • Pasta making and private home cooking chef geboekt bij terra che vive in ons vakantie huis in Puglia. Communicatie vooraf via mail ging zeer soepel en duidelijk. Tot in de puntjes besproken en uitgevoerd! Davide en Fransesco hebben ons de fijne kneepjes van het pasta maken geleerd en ons daarna een heerlijk diner voorgeschoteld. Alles schoon achtergelaten. Ontzettend goed geslaagde avond. Kan dit iedereen aanraden!

    An absolutely wonderful experience! Our Italian host, Marco, was well spoken and beautifully informed. We have never thought of doing cheese making, however, this will be long remembered. Cheese makers, Umberto and Francesco, were delightful and made us feel “part of the team”. They encouraged us to be fully involved (with our hands) in every step. Our labors were rewarded with delicious cheeses to eat! Lunch also included local meats! A tremendous event!! Highly recommended!!!

    Outstanding experience! Marco is an amazing guide. The Farmhouse tour was incredible and only topped by the multi-course lunch served after the pasta making, cheese making, touring the property, learning the history of the region, and bonding with the farm animals. Great experience and highly recommended.

    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.

    Located within the walls of a traditional Trulli home, we enjoyed the wine tasting which was accompanied by several local cheeses, various sausages and homemade preserves presented by the owner couple. The tour included a look at the wine making premises and operations and a very informative presentation of the area wines by the proprietor, Marcus, himself. Highly recommend this opportunity!
