Abruzzo + Rome
Fall 2024
From craggy, snow-covered mountains to the shimmering Adriatic coastline, Abruzzo is an unsung throwback and an opportunity to experience Italy as it once was. The region’s history spans 5,000 years of Mediterranean trade, and Abruzzo’s abundant natural beauty is impossible to ignore. Interesting vineyards dot the foothills of the Appenines, and the daily catch at seaside eateries is as fresh as it gets. On our luxury small group trips to Abruzzo and Rome, we’ll eat, we’ll learn, we’ll drink it (and the delicious wines) all in.
