Visit to Loreto Aprutino, the medieval village and the tradition of extra virgin olive oil｜Italy

Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

Loreto Aprutino has a history spanning thousands of years. For over 2,500 years, olive oil has been produced here, and today it is universally recognized as a product of excellence (with dozens of world titles won in various international competitions).

The current layout of its historic old town is entirely medieval. Strolling through its narrow streets, you can relax away from stress and noise.

Our experience begins with a guided visit to the Olive Oil Museum housed in "Palazzo Amorotti," an architectural marvel designed to be an olive oil mill!!

After the theory, we'll move on to the practical side with a small but surprising oil-tasting class led by the owner himself of the famous Pretole farm.

Accompanied by the curator of the Giardino dei Ligustri (part of Lauretum Park), we will wander through the winding alleyways until we reach the garden, where we will enjoy a unique nature experience.

You will have a dedicated professional tour leader throughout the experience.

The shuttle service will be private (for example, you can decide to stop along the route to take photos).

There are no strict time constraints (you can decide to slow down or speed up the stops).
