Pompeii & Pasta Experience

At 8:30 I’ll pick you up and we’ll set off for Pompeii Archaeological Park or Herculaneum Archaeological Park, buried by Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD and today among the most extraordinary archaeological sites in the world. A private official guide will accompany you for a couple of hours through the alleys of this labyrinth-like city, bringing Roman daily life back to life: simple windowless houses, breakfasts of milk, honey, and focaccia, comfortable clothing, and precious jewelry. Without forgetting restaurants, baths, and brothels, decorated with the frescoes of the “Menu of Love” for visitors of every language.

After the ruins, the journey continues in Gragnano, universally known as the "City of Pasta." Here, a young all-female team made up by Chiara, Tullia, Anna, Antonella and Daniela, founded a company rooted in a deep love for their land and its ancient traditions. The pasta is made with 100% Italian durum wheat and water from sources of Lattari Mountains and Don Vincenzo Di Massa is the “maestro pastaio”: he keeps and preserves the secret of the Gragnano pasta that is handed down from father to son. Here you will start with an immersive virtual tour you’ll experience the Old Gragnano and its ancient tradition in making pasta, in a very unique way. You will visit the pasta factory, and discover the art of making pasta. After the guided tour, a tasting experience will wait for you. Get ready your palate and taste the dishes that make their exquisite pasta, their undisputed queen made by the Chef Domenico Stile the youngest starred chef in the capital.
