Itinerary

“We went on the wonderful Taste of Calabria Tour, Natalina Bombino Campagnolo is a wonderful facilitator and planned an excellent, informative, and very tasty experience. She helped make our group a family as she introduced us to the flavours of her ancestral homeland. Natalina’s selection of Silvia as our knowledgeable, flexible tour guide highlights Natalina’s understanding that good food and good company go hand in hand! Thanks for a great experience!”

“Taking the “Taste of Calabria” tour with host Natalina and guide Silvia proved to be one of my best travel decisions. With 13 other guests, we explored this part of southern Italy together, and by the end of the trip I felt I had gained 13 new friends. As a single traveller, the supplemental cost was remarkably reasonable, and yet I still enjoyed the exceptional quality of accommodation and service as those travelling together. We spent 3 nights at 3 different hotels (Tropea, Reggio Calabria, and Crotone), all of which were clean, extremely comfortable, and well located. No packing and unpacking everyday for us!”
