Pleasant and informative

5.00A really nice, informative visit. We visited the lemon grove and learned quite a bit about growing lemons. There is no olive grove here, but a few olive trees sufficed to also understand the key things about growing and picking olives. The mill is not active this time of year, however a video and a clear explanation helped. The tasting was the best part, including trying lemons. Miriam was very nice and answered all our questions. Our teenage kids liked it a lot too, not just adults.
Different tour to try it...

5.00Different tour to try it if you have done all of the touristy stuff. Loved getting to learn more about this small business and the production of olive oil and understanding the flavor that complements different foods. Would definitely recommend.
Great excursion!

5.00We are farmers from England near Oxford. We wanted to take the opportunity to learn more about extra virgin olive oil. This we certainly did. We were looked after very well at each stage of the presentation and the information and tasting was revealing sitting in the building where they process and package the product.. We came away with a much better understanding of the boundaries of what is involved. The premises were clean and professional and as we learnt hygiene is an essential part of the production. The owner and her farther were also there and she supported and added to her colleagues presentations. There is a range of product you can buy so we can be reminded of our experience. The surrounding area looks like it is productive and prosperous. We would recommend the visit to anyone who feels they are interested.
Very educational and highly interesting tour

5.00A wonderfully ecologically run farm with olive and citrus trees in mixed culture. The olives are harvested by hand and pressed cold in a gentle process. The greatest emphasis is placed on quality. All processes of further processing into the high-quality olive oils have been explained and described in great detail, and the individual processes on the respective special machines have been explained. The open-minded friendly staff and the owner answered all the questions of the group in detail. At the tasting you can taste very much the differences of the individual variants and anyway to the common olive oils from the supermarkets. It was a very informative and interesting tour for me, which I can only recommend to anyone interested in high-quality olive oil!!
Unforgettable Olive Oil Experience

5.00Unforgettable Olive Oil Experience! The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about olives and the production process. We were fortunate to have the owner, Francesca, personally guide us through the tour and tasting — her passion and expertise made the experience truly special. The tasting itself was exceptional, featuring a variety of mini side dishes including olives, fresh bread, grapes, and cheese. We never realized the depth and complexity of flavor in Extra Virgin Olive Oil until this visit. A truly memorable and enriching experience!
Production out of passion

5.00My boyfriend and I were the only people on the olive tour. Noemi was our guide and she explained everything in detailled and she answered all our questions with knowledge, charme and patience as we had plenty 😉 you can really tell that it's a family runned business as the owner has put a lot of effort and charme into it, to make this place a Bio and environmental friendly olive and lemon farm. We enjoyed the tour and in the end we tasted 4 different kinds of olive oil which also came with some olives, bread and cheese. It was really worth it, we would highly recommend!
