Découvrez l'essence de Gragnano lors de cette excursion exclusive au National Geographic qui vous emmène découvrir le monde des pâtes. Vous commencez par un trajet panoramique en bus le long de la baie de Naples, sous l'œil attentif du mont Vésuve. Votre guide formé au National Geographic vous donnera un aperçu de la culture de Campanie pendant que, installé, vous admirez le paysage qui défile.
Votre première étape est la vallée des Moulins, un ravin situé sur les pentes entre Sorrente, Naples et la côte amalfitaine. Ici, un historien local bénévole et meunier à la retraite, qui se consacre à la restauration du site, vous révèlera la fascinante ingénierie qui se cache derrière les moulins, dont deux ne sont qu'exclusivement ouverts pour les participants de cette excursion.
Vous pourrez vous promener tranquillement et profiter du paysage, avant de rejoindre une fabrique de pâtes réputée aux traditions profondément enracinées. La créativité du chef pâtissier, Antonino Moccia, et les 140 formes de pâtes différentes de l'usine sont surprenantes. Accompagné du propriétaire de l'usine, vous visiterez le musée et entendrez les histoires qui ont façonné cette industrie au fil des siècles. Vous découvrirez l'une des plus anciennes familles de fabricants de pâtes de la région, dont l'ascendance est en partie à l'origine du voyage transatlantique des pâtes vers les États-Unis à la fin du 19ᵉ siècle.
L'heure sera venue de retrousser vos manches lors d'une séance interactive de fabrication de pâtes, avec Nonna Giuseppina à vos côtés pour vous guider pendant que vous pétrissez. Pour terminer, vous passez bien sûr à la dégustation de vos créations, lors d'un repas composé de plats de pâtes préparés avec des ingrédients provenant du jardin de l'usine. Une véritable expérience "de la ferme à la table" et la meilleure façon de terminer la visite.

Your journey begins at the Arena of Spartacus, the ancient amphitheater in Capua. Second in size only to Rome's Colosseum, this amphitheater is older, better preserved, and less crowded. Join your guide, a specialist in Roman archaeology, to tour the home of the Gladiator school of Ancient Rome where the legendary gladiator Spartacus made his daring escape and ignited his revolt against Roman slavery.Upon leaving the army, Spartacus was sold into slavery. He was ordered to go to Capua to enroll in Gladiator training school, where he rebelled against his enslavement and managed to escape alongside several other trainee gladiators.

Against the odds, Spartacus and his rebel army resisted Roman attempts to overpower them, becoming a symbol of resistance against oppression.As you explore the amphitheater's ‘hypogeum' or underground area, you'll feel like you have a backstage pass to the gladiator shows of days past.
