    My daughter and I recently spent a wonderful week with an absolutely amazing family on their Olive Farm. Emilio, his wife Clara and their 4 children as well as Emilio’s brother Miguel were the perfect hosts. Chef Emilio prepared our breakfast and evening meal each day and either Emilio, Clara or Miguel took us on outings to visit the area to such wonderful places such as Otranto, Castro, Gallipoli (one of my favourite) as well as Zinzulusa Cave which was very interesting. One evening we visited the city of Lecce with Antonio, Emilio and Miguel’s father, which is so beautifully lit up at night and then we stopped at a local famous pizza restaurant and the pizza was absolutely delicious. Great experience and I’d do it again! We then went to the city of Matera for 3 wonderful days and had fantastic tours with Alessio and Cosimo. I had to go home and watch the James Bond movie No Time to Die again to see the wonderful views of Matera within the film. We would also like to thank Omar from Solento Tours. He was most helpful with our requests for further changes to our itinerary once we completed the city of Matera portion where we decided to go to the Amalfi Coast and Naples. Thanks Omar!!

    The trip to Puglia was terrific. we stayed at wonderful places! Our guide Lorenzo was awesome!! so knowledgeable and responsive to our requests/needs! A little disappointed in the food as there was a vegetarian traveler and while we could see that people tried to accomodate this need. There was limited choice, and variation.
