Giovanni and his team created a wonderful experience for my clients on retreat in Puglia. Learning to make pasta by hand and then being served the most delicious lunch was a highlight. More so the way Giovanni took care of us was so personal, we got an authentic Italian experience with a local Italian! He made us all feel very at home , this added value he especially for my American clients who were visiting Puglia for the first time. I will be hiring Green Italy Tours for future retreats knowing I can trust the level of care and connection on offer. An insiders experience of Puglia, what more to ask for!

I went on this wine tour a few weeks ago and it was the highlight of my trip. Stefano is a fantastic host who has great knowledge of the area and the wine. I’ve been to quite a few wine tours around the world and I would recommend this tour. You get to really understand wine from this region and you also get to drink a decent amount of wine. I’ll be coming back for a longer tour with Stefano next time. Sharon
