Wine and food tour to the Roman Castles (Frascati and Castel Gandolfo)

Do as the Romans do on hot summer days and take a break from the crowds and the heat on an excursion to Castelli Romani, an area of small hilltop villages that are surrounded by lovely countryside. Spend a half-day touring Castelli Romani, home to the famous hills known as “Roman Castles.” Escape from the bustle of Rome and visit a typical “fraschetta” the venue where Romans traditionally go to eat their own food paying for the table and the local wine served. Nowadays Fraschettas are specialized in both food and wine, so …relax and enjoy! The region is home to some of the oldest wine-producing vineyards in the world. Etruscans and Greek settlers produced wine in the country long before the Romans started developing their own vineyards in the 2nd-century B.C. Now, 2,000 years later, Italy is one of the world’s foremost producers, for approximately one-fifth of the world’s wine production. Lunch/Food and Wine Tasting is included in a local characteristic Wine Estate. You will not only visit historical sites of great relevance and interest, but savor a cultural and gastronomic legacy developed over untold generations. You will meet and spend time with locals whose warmth and cheerfulness is matched only by their pride in their cultural traditions and their willingness to share them.
