“Loved the whole experience. Riding around the countryside and then eating home cooked pasta and other extremely delicious and quality food was a great way to spend our evening. The hosts were all lovely and welcoming. They provided a homely environment and so much food we weren’t able to finish it. Thanks for our experience. I would highly recommend this activity to anyone who appreciates a beautiful countryside, warm and hospitable hosts and great food and wine.”
