What exactly is the Taste of Campania Tour with Diliberto Wine Tours? It is...
HISTORY - We’ll explore 2,500 of history, from the Greek temples in Paestum to the Roman city of Herculaenum that was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, and from the Roman theatre in Benevento to the Royal Palace in Caserta.
SEASIDE BEAUTY - From the beautiful towns of Torre del Greco and Vietri sul Mare to the ancient city of Agropoli we will look out at the sea as we dine where the Greeks and Romans walked more than 2000 years ago.
ARTISTRY - You will see the ancient art of Cameo making from coral harvested from the Mediterranean Sea that began centuries ago and we will visit a town renowned worldwide for its magnificent ceramics.
FOOD AND WINE - And of course, we will enjoy the food and wine Italy has become famous for, from the Buffalo Mozzarella which we will see produced to the award-winning Falanghina and Taurasi wines.

Italy is one of the world’s healthiest countries. So in honor of International Mind-Body Wellness Day, here are a few Italian wellness tips that will benefit you, no matter where you live:
1. Live an active lifestyle. It’s more than just exercising an hour a day. Incorporate more walking into your day. Start the tradition of “La Passeggiata,” the ritual of going on a leisurely evening stroll. Use it as a way to connect and catch up with loved ones while enjoying some movement.
2. Enjoy carbs in all forms. Carbs provide energy.! Restricting food groups can backfire big time, so embrace carbs and the joy that comes with them at every meal.
3. Eat locally-sourced foods. In Italy, local ingredients take center stage at every meal. Because the ingredients are so fresh, meals are delicious without needing to add fillers like extra salt, sugar, or unhealthy cooking oils. This leads to both a tastier and a healthier diet.
4. Romanticize your meals. It’s tempting to multitask while you eat, but that can work against your wellness goals. Put away your screens and notebooks. Take time to savor each bite. Use the time to catch up with loved ones. Focus on what you’re eating and who you’re with.
5. Prioritize leisure time. In Italy, long lunches, evening strolls, and kicking back with friends over a glass of wine aren’t occasional treats - they’re the norm. This kind of balance can help reduce stress, ultimately making you happier and more productive. Look for little pockets of relaxation you can enjoy throughout the day.

Italian Dining Etiquette Tips
Italy is synonymous with good food and wine, so it just makes sense that a lot of etiquette rules have been built up around mealtime. Here are some of the important rules of Italian dining etiquette you should know before you go:
◼️ Wait for everyone to be served before starting to eat. No nibbling in the meantime.
◼️ Serve others at the table before yourself when going for a helping of food or wine. This doesn’t mean you need to serve the entire tour group; just focus on the people sitting close by.
◼️ Start the meal off with “Buon appetito!” In context, it means “enjoy your meal.”
◼️ Similarly, make a toast before drinking your libation of choice. Raise your glass and say “Salute” or “Cin cin.”
◼️ Don’t talk with your mouth full. You didn’t know your mother was Italian, did you? Listen to Mom.
◼️ Beware of municipal rules when eating on the street. Some municipalities have enacted laws that forbid eating on the street. Don’t worry, we’ll let you know if that’s a factor at any of our stops.

Tour Review
We love helping our guests experience different places, foods, and wines for the first time. That’s what makes the travel experience great!
Here’s what Rachel had to say about her first trip to Italy with us:
"The experience of traveling to Campania, Italy with Sal and Maryann Diliberto on their wine tour was truly special. This tour is designed and led by them, and each day felt so personal. Of the many memorable moments, a favorite was discovering Falanghina at Mustilli Winery. We had had such an incredible day touring Sant' Agata de' Goti, followed by a winery tour and lunch. We reveled in the day's events while drinking delicious wine, and now whenever I see this varietal on a wine menu or in a shop, it brings me back to that moment. I can't imagine a better way to explore this beautiful region than with Diliberto Wine Tours." - Rachel Bosworth

Falanghina from the Mustilli Winery
After our tours, you can catch us bringing home as much Italian wine as customs will allow.
One of our favorites is this Falanghina from the Mustilli Winery in Sant’ Agata de’ Goti. On our tours, we visit their wine cellar carved more than 50 feet below the streets of the town. After, we enjoy a beautiful wine pairing lunch and visit some of the quaint shops in town.
Learn more about the history of this special wine in the video below.
Who wants to wake up to views like this? ✋
With Diliberto Wine Tours, you can! We take the road less traveled, visiting beautiful towns like this, Castellabate, a collection of hamlets each with its own character and charms.
While tourist attractions have become popular for a reason, we believe an authentic Italian experience involves slowing down and getting off the beaten path. “Don’t look for the heart and soul of Italy in a crowded city,” says owner Sal Diliberto. “Look in a small village with a view of the mountains, where the food, the wine, and the warmth of the people will linger forever in your memory.”
