Nat Geo Day Tour: A Taste of Tramonti and pizza-making experience.

Discover the treasures of Tramonti on this National Geographic Day Tour. Kickstart your adventure with a scenic ride along the Bay of Naples, under the watchful eye of Mount Vesuvius, leading through Monte Latteri and Valle dei Chiunz, revealing Tramonti's hidden hamlets. Pizza's global popularity owes much to Tramonti's ancestors, who played a pivotal role in spreading pizzerias worldwide. As you coast along lush countryside, your National Geographic-trained guide will share captivating stories of local culture and history. Perched high above the Amalfi Coast, Tramonti treats visitors to lemon-scented orchards, chestnut trees, and terraced vineyards. Your first stop is the garden of Acarbio, a pioneering association advocating for the Amalfi Coast to become a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Here, you'll enjoy a refreshment and hear about ongoing projects, including the revival of the almost-extinct Rè Fiascone tomato, a key ingredient for pizza. It's truly inspiring to see this dynamic group in action, preserving the rural heritage and biodiversity of the Amalfi Coast, reviving local agriculture, and protecting endangered species. At your last stop, you'll dive into a pizza-making workshop at a local Agriturismo, led by a skilled pizza chef. As you master the art of traditional ‘Neapolitan' pizza, the president of the Tramonti Pizzaioli Association, a prominent group of around 2000 pizza chefs, discusses Tramonti's pizza legacy. Finally, savour your culinary creations during a delightful lunch.

Nat Geo Day Tour: Rione Terra - Tales of Ancient History and Personal Redemption

Set off with your local guide from Naples to Pozzuoli, where you'll visit Rione Terra, the city's ancient core, recently resurrected from decades of abandonment following seismic activity. This area has undergone extensive restoration since 1993, unearthing historical treasures and reviving its legacy. Collaborating with the Puteoli Sacra project, your tour is enriched by guides who are reorienting their lives after incarceration, sharing local history but also their personal stories of redemption. Your exploration starts at the 17th-century baroque Cathedral of Pozzuoli, erected over the remnants of ancient temples, including a marble shrine to Augustus. Although ravaged by fire in 1964, the destruction also exposed these underlying historical layers, adding depth to your visit. Inside, marvel at works by Artemisia Gentileschi, a pioneering female artist of the Baroque period, known for her feminist undertones and exceptional life story in a male-dominated field. The next stop is the Diocesan Museum, safeguarding Rione Terra's art since the area's evacuation in the 1970s. The collection spans baroque masterpieces to sacred artifacts. Then venture underground to the Roman city of Puteoli, established in 194 B.C., where ancient streets and structures are unusually well preserved. Accompanied by your Puteoli Sacra guides, the tour ends with an aperitif in a private garden overlooking the sea or with tea indoors - depending on the weather - and a selection of Neapolitan nibbles.
