This 1-3 hour food and culinary tour in Taranto takes place at an authentic Apulian farm called Masseria Fragnite. The tour includes a visit to the Masseria grounds and a guided walk through the stable area where cows, calves, and pigs live freely in the surrounding Fragni wood. Visitors see the milking parlor and learn about the farm's supply chain ethics and history. The tour continues inside the dairy, where a skilled cheese maker demonstrates the production of cow Mozzarella, Burrata, Stracciatella, and other local cheeses. During the tasting session, guests try a variety of fresh and aged cheeses such as Mozzarella, Stracciatella or Burratina, Canestrato Pugliese, Caciocavallo, and Giuncata or Ricotta, accompanied by jams or mustards. The tasting also includes cured meats like Capocollo, bacon, and salami, along with baked goods including focaccia with tomato, taralli, homemade bread, and fried oil bread. Seasonal fresh vegetables are offered depending on availability. The tour is usually conducted in English, with some explanations available in French. Since part of the visit takes place outdoors and on a working farm, guests should wear closed shoes and weather-appropriate clothing. Pets are allowed on the farm except inside the mozzarella factory, and there are animals living on the property.
