Private Tour of Taranto aboard an Ape Calessinofrank_m, Sep 2026
Easy form of travel with own guide
Great way to get around especially in the heat. This little vehicle can get to narrow streets in old town that otherwise would require you to walk. Useful for less able.

Highly recommend
Was such an interesting tour, nice amount of information. We got to make cheese. And then try all the cheese they make there. Beautiful farm. Highly recommend!

Fantastic pasta making workshop with very welcoming hosts!
Simona made us feel very relaxed and shared her passion for cooking and taught us the difference between regions in Italy. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend.

If you are staying in the area try to go in the beginning of your vacation so you can go back again to the retail shop!
What an amazing experience. Everything was well orchestrated. We enjoyed seeing the cows, watching the mozzarella demo, and visiting the Parma drying area. We totally enjoyed the samples we were served at the end of the tour. There was so much cheese amd meat left over that they even gave us to go paper goods. We even bought cheeses and meats to go in their small retail shop.

Lunch at Masseria Pasta Making Experiencejoseph_s, Sep 2026
Better than we expected.
It was an amazing experience. We started by mixing 2 ingredients to make the dough for pasta. The process to get the dough perfect was difficult for me but with the assistance of the class leaders I got it done. The next step we witnessed how to make Pomodoro sauce. The final step was to make the Orecchiettes.
It was time to sit and eat and boy did we eat. The foods served were all local. We sampled local olive oil drenched on casa bread, tomato focaccia bread, buffalo cheese, Capicola, wine and finally the orecchiettes with the pomodoro sauce.
Everything was delicious and the conversations were great. We met people from Germany, Greece and Holland.
At the end we spoke with a farm house family member Francisco and got a small tour of the hotel area. This was an amazing experience with beautiful surroundings.

The experience is worth the trip
The guide is super interesting! Serious and knowledgeable. It’s fun to see the cheese-making process and to be able to try creating a burrata ourselves. I would have liked a smaller and more intimate group, but the experience is worth the trip.

Three in One!
It was fantastic seeing all three towns in the one day. Although not a guided tour, our host gave information on the towns and some recommendations and guidance Well worth the cost.

We were greeted warmly and escorted directly to the air conditioned Mercedes van which was very comfortable. The Travel Assistant Chiara was engaging, a local with great enthusiasm and knowledge of the area.
