In Molise is het vaak moeilijk zelf de weg te vinden omdat er niets staat aangegeven. Molise Promotions helpt u graag hierbij. Molise is namelijk. te mooi om er niet meer van te zien. Zo worden er allerlei kleinschalige excursies georganiseerd:
Winetasting
Visit the winery “Angelo D’Uva” in Larino. During the guided tour everything
will be explained about the wine production in this family winery.
Together with a delicious dinner we also taste the wine.
Oiltasting
Visit this beautiful estate of a real italian princess, Marina Colonna. The old
family property is back in its old glory and it produces high quality olive oil.
We will visit the olive yards and taste the oil. Special are also the citrus oils;
the peels are pressed together with the olives and so you get nice flavours of
lemon, mandarin, orange oil. The oil receives yearly rewards for its high
quality.
Visit at the beekeeper
Here everything about the wonderful world of the bees will be explained to us
and we can have a look at the productionproces till how the honey is getting
into the jar. An aperitivo will be served and we can taste the honey.
Workshop fresh pasta
In ‘Gli Antichi Sapori’ we learn from a real italian mama how to make fresh
pasta. This self made pasta we will enjoy of course during lunch.
Cooking Lesson, complete menu
In this workshop a italian chef will learn u show to make a traditional italian
menu with antipasto, primo, secondo and dolce.
Workshop gelato
In Casalciprano we do a workshop making ice cream at the local gelato
producer. After this we have a lunch in restaurant ‘Sapori Riflessi’. It is worth
while to walk around in Casaciprano. It is an open air museum with street art
and the visualised old local habits.
Jeepsafari
In a 4×4 jeep with a driver we visit spots in nature, normally not accessible
by tourists. We go along the hills and the old ‘tratturi’, the trekking-paths for
the animals. This is a full day excursion. For lunch we will stop at a local
reastaurant.
Visit of museum and tasting at cheese-farm
In Bonefro there are two beautiful museums: one in the monastery with old
tools and habits from daily life. The other is in Palazzo Miozzi and dedicated
to Tony Vaccaro with roots in Bonefro but living in the United States. He
started as a war fotographer but became famous for his pictures of
moviestars and VIP’s.
In Santa Croce di Magliano we have a ‘aperitivo’ with an abundant choice of
local cheeses and other small bites.
In the footsteps of Padre Pio
Padre Pio studied in Sant’Elia. We will visit the monastery where he lived and
the church. The paintings there are made by Paolo Gamba, very famous in his
time. After the tour we have a nice lunch in the monastery with local
products.
