A great escape from the hustle and bustle of Rome, and to experience local food and wine. Pier, who is a local of the area hosts these tours out of passion, and his local knowledge and history of the area is extensive.
Our tour of the Castelli Romani with Pier was absolutely fabulous and a true highlight of our trip! Pier is incredibly knowledgeable and personable, making the history of the area come alive while keeping the atmosphere fun and relaxed. We loved exploring this stunning region and sampling local delicacies like truffles, wild strawberry liqueur, and fresh pastries. We capped off the day at a traditional fraschetta, where Pier surprised us by picking up a guitar and singing—a wonderful touch of local culture! If you want an authentic, joyful, and delicious experience, I cannot recommend Pier highly enough
The instructions on how to get to Frascati were excellent. Pier was very chatty and knowledgeable as he drove us around the area and invited us to sample some of the local produce. A great tour and well worth it.
It’s wonderful! You will see more of beautiful Frascati and the surrounding towns. So much history. Pier was our most excellent guide. He gave so much personal attention and detail to the trip.There were no crowds. It was very relaxing. We also enjoyed some local food tasting and wine. It was well worth doing!
This was amazing and the best part of my trip to Italy! We tasted fresh mushrooms, pastries, and coffees. Then, the wine!
Directions for the train journey were invaluable. The walk is interesting and our guide very friendly. He knew how to match our expectations for this pretty discovery. Follow him!!
This trip was so relaxing and a nice break from the hustle and bustle of Rome. The guide showed us some beautiful sites and we tried some wonderful snacks, wines, and conversation. He also kept in contact and told us what train to take and was holding a sign with our name on it. It was much easier to find than all the other tours we've been on.
Highlight of our trip! We spent 3 enjoyable hours with Piero experiencing the beauty of the area. If you want to escape the hustle of Rome and enjoy a day like a local this tour is a must. The views were incredible and the food tastings delicious. My favorite part was sitting in cafe overlooking the lake sipping espresso with fresh Nemo strawberry tart. Thank you Piero for a wonderful day.
My wife and I recently enjoyed a truly beautiful and private day trip to the Castelli Romani, and it was an absolutely perfect experience. Our knowledgeable tour guide, Pier, made the day exceptional from start to finish. Pier's passion for the region and its history was evident in every commentary. He shared fascinating insights and anecdotes, bringing each town to life and making the landscapes even more captivating. He struck the perfect balance between providing information and allowing us to simply soak in the atmosphere. While every stop was charming, our absolute favorite was undoubtedly Nemi. This picturesque village, perched above its volcanic lake, felt like something out of a fairytale. The stunning views, the delicious wild strawberries, and the general tranquility of the place made it a highlight we won't soon forget. Pier's guidance here allowed us to fully appreciate its unique beauty and history. The entire day was seamless, relaxed, and tailored to our interests. Pier was not only a fantastic guide but also a wonderful companion, making us feel comfortable and engaged throughout the journey. If you're looking for a private, enriching, and utterly delightful escape into the Castelli Romani, we wholeheartedly recommend booking this trip and requesting Pier as your guide. It was a day we'll cherish for a long time.
