Let's Discover the Campania Traditions

Overview

This is a Private Escorted tour of the Campania region that will bring you to Naples, with its castles and noble palaces, and also the city where pizza was conceived in its modern appearance and taste; the Isle of Capri, the most picturesque and visited places in Campania; in Pompeii, the ancient Roman city buried in 79 AD: in Sorrento, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where there are a number of mountain towns that seem to fall into the sea and the wonderful Positano.

You will have the unique opportunity of sampling several Slow Food Presidia products that are high-quality, traditional foods and beverages at risk of “extinction” and other local delicacies from Slow Food recommended quality producers, such as: the original Limoncello of Amalfi and Sorrento; the cakes and other specialties of Amalfi; the San Marzano tomato and the typical preserves and jams of the “Fondo galatea ”.

Slow Food is an organisation that promotes local food and traditional cooking. It was founded by Carlo Petrini in Italy in 1986 and has since spread worldwide. Promoted as an alternative to fast food, it strives to preserve traditional and regional cuisine and encourages farming of plants, seeds, and livestock characteristic of the local ecosystem. It promotes local small businesses and sustainable foods. It also focuses on food quality, rather than quantity. It was the first established part of the broader slow movement. It speaks out against overproduction and food waste. It sees globalisation as a process in which small and local farmers and food producers should be simultaneously protected from and included in the global food system.
