From Rome: Christmas Santa’s Village & Farmhouse Lunch｜Italy

Begin your festive adventure with a convenient pick‑up in Rome. Leave the city behind and drive north for about 45–60 minutes to Il Regno di Babbo Natale in Vetralla, a huge indoor and outdoor Christmas village in a fairy‑tale countryside of hills, trees and small towns. Pick‑up in Rome is included.

Once you arrive, you can choose how to experience Santa’s world. Part of the Christmas village is free to enter and enjoy: decorations, shops, lights and festive atmosphere. There is also a more immersive ticketed area with extra themed spaces and activities; if you wish to enter this section, you can buy your ticket on site. Each family decides how much time and budget to spend inside the village.

You then have free time to explore at your own pace. Walk through enchanted paths, visit Santa’s House, admire endless Christmas trees and ornaments, and browse the Victorian‑style streets with food stalls, music and lights. Depending on the day and program of Santa’s Village, you may also find a skating rink, carousel, Christmas train or other family‑friendly attractions. These extra activities, snacks and drinks inside the village are at your own expense, so you can choose what you prefer to do. Your host will agree on a clear meeting time and place so you can relax and explore without worrying about transport or parking.

After your time at Santa’s Village, continue by car for around 20–30 minutes to GodarsVillage – Meditation Farm, a small family‑run farmhouse surrounded by fields, olive trees and animals. Here the day becomes quieter and more intimate. Sit down for a farm‑to‑table lunch: a generous, home‑style Italian meal with seasonal dishes and real local ingredients from the farm and nearby producers, including our extra‑virgin olive oil and regional wines for adults (soft drinks for children).

The atmosphere at GodarsVillage is cozy and bucolic: in the colder months there is a fireplace inside, and in the garden children can meet the animals and run around while adults enjoy the countryside views. Depending on the day, there may also be a small festive activity for kids, such as writing or decorating a letter to Santa to take home.

If timing and daylight allow, your host may also include a short scenic countryside stop on the way back – for example a viewpoint over a nearby lake – before starting the journey back.

At the end of the experience, you can choose how to return to Rome. We can take you to the nearest train station, from where there is a train of about 40 minutes back to Rome, or you can request a private car transfer back to your address in Rome for an extra fee. This is a curated day for a small group of 2–8 guests, ideal for visitors who love Christmas and want to combine the fantasy of a Santa’s Village with the authentic flavours and atmosphere of an Italian farmhouse in the countryside.
