Loves the tour of the grounds and buffalos at the mozzarella farm, with a taste testing at the end. Our guide for Paestum, Marco, was very knowledgeable of the history and stories behind each site. Would definitely recommend (although for only two people, it was a bit pricey).
Thank you so much. Our purpose is to provide the client with the most memorable experience.
