About
Guided tour of an old typical Masseria farm in the heart of Puglia surrounded by monumental millennial olive trees where organic extra virgin olive oil of superior quality is produced. The guided tour begins in the monumental olive grove to discover the olive trees with fascinating sculptural forms.
The Masseria farm is one of the oldest and most original of Puglia that preserves intact the testimonies left by the populations that have succeeded.

- Fran221010 contributionsFabulous MauritaniaOur group of 4 was guided through Mauritania by Hadrami Bouh who owns Tour in Mauritania. Bouh lead us through his country, where his family has lived for many generations. We learned about his father and grandfather making haji by camel. He showed us cave paintings, the Eye of the Sahara along with the ancient cities along the caravan routes to the sea. Not only is he very knowledgeable about the country and the geography, he was very open to all of our questions about his and his family's lives. Our group was comprised of very experienced travelers. Each of us has been to over 200 different countries. We all agreed that Bouh was among the best guide we've had. I can't say enough about him. I highly -- very highly -- recommend him.Written 24 July 2024

- Jeanine D C0 contributionsAmazing tour guide and city!We had the most amazing time with our private tour guide, Antonio. His vast knowledge of Conversano as well as history in general made it extra interesting. He even shared historical info with us about other areas we had already visited in the Puglia region. He was kind, well-versed in English, and interesting. Even our teens were interested in listening to him. We will definitely be booking more tours with Antonio next time we visit Puglia.Written 4 July 2024
- 301lisa330 contributionsSix, if not seven, starsThis site is fabulous if you are even remotely interested in mosaics. The site is a palace rather than a villa and is quite extensive. Some has been reconstructed so you get a good sense of the original buildings. The mosaic floors are incredibly extensive and fantastic. Access is via raised walkways, which are quite narrow Go at a time when it will be quiet as it can get very busy and noisyWritten 19 June 2024
