What they say about us

Claudio, founder of Loliv

Vision

Do you want to discover the places you visit through the eyes of a special local?

Puglia is becoming an increasingly popular tourist destination. As a result, however, its destinations are often crowded with tourists and are losing their authenticity.

For those who, like you, would like to discover the true face of Puglia, it is often difficult to get off the beaten track, especially to meet and touch how local people live.

Loliv was born from the desire to promote and make accessible in Puglia a slow, responsible and authentic way of travelling, in contact with local people.

Loliv organises authentic experiences with real local artisans , passionate about their craft. We select the artisans ourselves and accompany them in the development of the experiences to guarantee quality and authenticity.

Moreover, Loliv has a positive impact on local communities because it valorises the work of the artisans and enables them to earn additional income through tourism.

Our artisans look forward to meeting and showing you what they are capable of. Register now for one of our experiences!

We look forward to welcoming you,

Founder of Loliv
