CULINARY PLEASURES OF CAMPANIA

 

Honeymoon and  Culinary tours of Italy

 

7 days.Weekly on Saturdays : Feb. - Nov, or choose a Private departure with a minimum of 4 guests in your party - Compare with :The Magic of Sicily : 8 Days . Compare with Italy as part of a Mediterranean Cruise . Combined tours of Greece and Italy

 

Ah, la cucina! The pleasure of fine Italian cooking is not only in the preparation. It involves the selection of the finest ingredients. Italians can distinguish a cheese by the pasture where its raw milk originated. A recipe will never call for mere ham, but Prosciutto or Parma, with a pedigree as fine as that of any wine. With Travel in Style, you'll experience every aspect of the regional cuisine of Campania. You'll be lodged not at a hotel, but at a classic rural farmstead furnished with antiques, and surrounded by lemon and orange groves.

All dinners will be prepared and served by qualified instructors, who will share their techniques and secrets. On daily outings, you'll learn how country-style bread is made from scratch, and find out that real pizza is not an American invention after all. And of course, you'll taste the experience all along the way. Buon Appetito!

 

 

 

DAY 1 - ARRIVAL IN ITALY - Naples (D) Sat
Our representative will meet you at the airport of Naples, and escort you by private car to your lodgings at an Agriturism farm house in Santa Agata Dei due Golfi, in the region of Sorrento, situated with views to both the Bay of Naples and Salerno. Here you'll enjoy a hearty dinner- -Italians know no other kind- -and you'll have time to explore the operations on the property. If you're familiar with mechanized farming elsewhere, you'll be surprised at how so many tasks are still done on a small scale, with attention to detail.

 

 

DAY 2 - BREAD and PASTA (BLD) Sun
Today, we'll journey to a farm in Massa Lubrense for a lesson in the art and science of traditional Italian bread-making. Instruction takes place in a onetime monastery set in a grove of lemon trees, where the signoras of the farmstead reveal their secrets of dough preparation, finding the right yeast, exactly how long to allow the loaves to rise, and the proper baking techniques. After a farm lunch, we'll take a short trip to Sorrento, where we'll have time to stroll the streets of the waterside town. Then its back to our lodgings for dinner and a night's rest.

 

 

DAY 3 - MOZZARELLA (BLD) Mon
Traditional mozzarella cheese is made in the shape of a "treccia." Today, we'll visit a farm where the old ways are used to prepare and mold the cheese. After a rest and free time at our farm lodgings, we'll step out to dinner at a traditional taverna.

 

 

DAY 4 - POMPEII (BLD) Tue
After breakfast at the farm, we'll head up the coast to the remains of ancient Pompeii, in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius. We'll spend a morning at the excavations. Then it will be our privilege to take lunch and a cooking lesson in one of the most exclusive restaurants of the South, Il Principe di Pompeii. Our syllabus will even include some ancient Roman recipes. Dinner will be at our farm lodgings.

DAY 5 - PIZZA, AMALFI, POSITANO (BLD) Wed
Today, we'll head for Vico Equense and one of the oldest pizzerias in the South, to learn about the preparation of the genuine item. After lunch, we'll follow the Amalfi coast and stop at Positano, before returning to our lodgings for dinner.

 

 

DAY 6 - CAKES (BD) Thu
We'll leave in the morning for Naples, where we'll tour the historical center of the city, the heart of the South. But we'll also have a serious purpose, as we head to the oldest Neapolitan pastry shop. Here we'll learn how to prepare authentic sfogliatella. Afterwards, we'll have time to wander the city on our own, before we return to our farm lodgings for dinner.

 

 

DAY 7 - DEPARTURE FOR Rome or Home (B) Fri
Our personnel will meet you after breakfast and see you to the airport by private car to begin your homeward journey.
