The Gold of Abruzzo

We will pick you up in Rome around 9am and head to the Abbazia of Bominaco, a little church also known as the Sistine Chapel of Abruzzo, where you can admire perfectly preserved frescoes from the 11th century. Then we will drive to Santo Stefano di Sessanio, a once abandoned borough so unique for its history and architecture, now a beautifully preserved slice of history and culture where we will enjoy a lunch with all local produce.

We then visit the majestic and picturesque Rocca Calascio and after a relaxing and panoramic drive we will check into Casadonna for a rest and refresh before dinner at the world renowned 3 Michelin Stars Reale di Niko Romito. 

Enjoy an incredible breakfast before heading to discover the town of Scanno, home of some of the oldest gold artisans in the country, take in the beautiful scenery and savour the unique local culinary delights.
