5 Unique Experiences in Italy You Must Try

3. Unusual Italy Tours: Discovering the Secrets of Burrata in Puglia's Itria Valley

Who hasn’t heard of Burrata cheese? This soft shell covering a creamy center oozes with richness and buttery flavors, and is a favorite of many foodies. Learning exactly how this indulgent cheese is made from a unique Puglia food tour will allow you to immerse yourself in the Southern Italian way of life. Particularly if you venture to the Itria valley where you can also taste the finest local wines. 

Did you also know 40% of Italy's extra virgin olive oil is produced in the region of Puglia? In fact there are over 60 million olive trees growing in this region. Use this unique food tour experience to learn all about how this pillar of Italian cuisine has been produced since the bronze age.

Experience the real Southern Italy through its food traditions during a Puglia Private Tour. Join a local family to learn centuries-old recipes and food-making techniques that have been passed down through generations.

4. Once in a Lifetime Experience in Italy: Private Sailing Along the Amalfi Coast

A sensual blend of both natural and cultural wonders, the Amalfi coast boasts breathtaking landscapes and dramatic aquamarine sea views. A very popular spot for visitors to Italy, however there are ways of making your trip more special than the average tourists.

Consider an Amalfi coast sailing experience, and create incredible memories that will last forever. I recommend requesting your sailing tour to include a visit to Bagni della Regina Giovanna (Queen Joan’s Baths). A beautiful, hidden lagoon for you to leisurely swim in enclosed by rocky cliffs. This natural cerulean water pool can only be reached on foot, but makes a great addition to your coastal tour. For beach seekers, I suggest sailing to Marina di Puolo - a lovely hidden gem known for its crystalline water. 

Aside from the spectacular views you’ll encounter throughout your sailing experience, you’ll also be able to gorge on exquisite fried seafood dishes in true Italian style. Join our Private Tour of Amalfi Coast from Naples or Positano.

5. Set Your Sights on Hunting Truffles in the Langhe Region: A Once in a Lifetime Experiences in Italy​​​​​​​

A buried treasure filled with mystery, and a luxurious taste when added to oil or cheeses. Why not take inspiration from the acclaimed and stunningly made “The Truffle Hunters” documentary by venturing on your own Roero truffle hunting experience?
Spend a memorable day exploring the Langhe region, learning all about this delicious delicacy, and how the farmers train their dogs to hunt truffles in the charming surroundings. 
Bear in mind that depending on the time of year you go will affect which truffles you’ll be able to seek out. Late September to the end of January is when you’ll find the prized white truffle. Whereas, February to mid-September is when you’ll come across the black truffle.

Of course, no experience is complete in Italy without a healthy dose of wine tasting, and the Langhe region is no exception. Enjoy the stunning scenery of Langhe hills as you sip this delectable wine.
