Your journey will begin with a visit of Rieti an ancient city even older than Rome itself, is rich in rivers and lakes, and the views here are full of vegetation and beautiful towns that will leave you speechless. The downtown rests on a small hill that overlooks beautiful valleys surrounded by mountains all along!

And in case you are into basketball, we have an interesting fact for you, as this used to be Kobe Bryant’s home!

From the top, your first stop will allow you to take pictures capturing the astonishing landscapes!

  • Teatro Flavio Vespasiano - In Rieti, we will visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria and its bell tower from 1.252. It might look quite simple from the outside, but inside is beautifully ornate with original frescos. It also has a crypt of the most antique part of the church.

Another gems Rieti has to offer us for admire them are the Church of San Francesco, in honor to Saint Francis of Assisi who has stayed many times in the city. The stunning Flavio Vespasiano theatre with its characteristic good acoustics; and the Church of San Rufo situated in a same name square, tradition says this is the exact geographical centre of Italy!

You will visit the city on your own

  • Parco in Miniatura - After visiting Rieti, head to Amatrice! After suffering a 6.2 magnitude earthquake, Amatrice was mostly destroyed, and hope for the future was hard to find, nevertheless, the city has found its redemption thanks to their food! Being the home of the treasured “Pasta all’amatriciana”, be ready to dine and get delighted with the original recipe right where it was born, while at the same time you are supporting those who decide to remain and rebuilt their beloved city.

We want you to keep tasting the local Amatrician flavors, which is why we can also prepare for you a wine tasting experience with their best white and red selection.

  • Lago Di Campotosto - Once you feel rested enough after lunch, get ready to continue your tour going to our last stops. Your driver will take you to Lago di Campotosto, an artificial lake located in Abruzzo at an elevation of 1.313 meters, pictures here will be astonishing!

Finally, we will go to L’Aquila, surrounded by 4 mountains, thanks to their protection against the Mediterranean warm currents, its weather never gets as hot as the rest of Italy. Although the city is also still in recovery, some of its attractions can be admire again.

Wonderful, seamless and magical - I would recommend this company a hundred times over to anyone coming to Italy who needs accommodations getting places. My husband, his grandmother and I had the best time with our driver Alex! He was so wonderful and personable, we felt like family by the end of our time together. He picked us up and had breakfast and water in the car for us, so thoughtful! Use this company! It will take the stress off of your trip and create memorable experiences. Here are some pictures from our beautiful drive.
