For history lovers and fans of historic monuments, this is the perfect experience! Just a few kilometers from Basilicata, after a private transfer, you’ll arrive in Rocca Imperiale — the gateway to Calabria on the Ionian Sea. Its location, reminiscent of a nativity scene set into a hill, and its stunning sea view, are unique features that have earned it a spot among Italy’s “Most Beautiful Villages.”
Your guide will lead you through the discovery of the Swabian Castle and its underground passages, built by Frederick II in the 13th century. The tour will continue through the narrow, charming streets of the historic center, bringing you to the most beautiful seaside viewpoint the village has to offer.
Then, enjoy some free time, perhaps to taste local products made with the famous IGP lemons of Rocca Imperiale, a fragrant fruit with edible peel.
