The Etruscans once lived in the centre-north regions of Italy. They were an incredibly developed civilization before the Romans conquered their territories and their knowledge in the 2nd century BC. This is the perfect Tour if you want to find out more about the Etruscans and see with your eyes what it’s left of them in Italy. An interesting journey inside the World of the Etruscans. The area north of Rome is today called Tuscany because Tusci was the way the Romans used to call these neighbouring people.

The Etruscans were great Mariners and loved to do Banquets as it is illustrated on the Frescoes of the Tombs in Tarquinia, a Unesco World Heritage Site.

Wine Production is still foundamental in this Region and it remains an important part of the Italian culture. Italy is one of the biggest Wine Producing country, every year 19% of the Wine in the World is produced here. Don’t lose the opportunity to taste the best that the fertile Etruscan territories can offer.

Some lesser known small Towns of Tuscany will be explored, as well as the Tuscia region and Umbria, magnificent sister of Tuscany. A visit to family driven Farmhouses, Vineyards and Olive Oil Producers will make it a complete and fascinating journey.
