The experience culminates in a light lunch, where the farm-to-table philosophy is brought to life with dishes crafted from the freshest ingredients.

“Fantastic experience - highly recommend! - Just finished a tour and dinner at La Masseria and I cannot recommend it enough. What an absolute treat. The tour was incredible itself, and full of information and knowledge. It’s amazing how self sufficient they are and continue to strive to be. The dinner after was incredible too - as well as the tastings. The cake was to die for! And the pasta was absolutely delightful. Nothing like a home cooked Italian meal using things from their farm. I am so pleased we got to experience this, and definitely recommend it to anyone.” - Reviewed on 2025-03-26
