What's this trip about?

    Abruzzo, is a region a world away from modern Italy. One of the lesser known and unexplored regional destinations Abruzzo has it all. This includes massive mountain ranges, stunning lakes, the Adriatic coastline, UNESCO heritage sites, three national parks, some of the most beautiful and fascinating medieval Italian towns and last but not least an eclectic and varied cuisine that changes from the mountains to the coast. With no crowds and easy access from Rome, Abruzzo has something for everyone, from the adventure and sports traveler to the history buffs, from the food and wine aficionados to beach lovers.
