From Le Marche to Tuscany, Lazio, and Umbria, Central Italy boasts culinary heavens where you’ll visit ancient villages, explore farmers’ markets, tour vineyards, and more.

Imagine stopping for a refreshing gelato in the shadow of the Colosseum or enjoying a glass of wine while overlooking the rolling Tuscan hills.

What to Expect on a Culinary Vacation in Central Italy?

During a Culinary Tour in Central Italy, you’ll indulge in the best local dishes and explore some of the most iconic places in the country. From the capital of Rome to the Renaissance city of Florence, and Medieval San Gimignano, you’ll enjoy a feast for all your senses.

Blessed with hot and long summers, Central Italy is a heaven for tomato-based dishes. Meanwhile, the chilly inland winters offer the perfect conditions for green vegetables, such as kale.

An area almost entirely comprising hills and mountains, Central Italy has a long farming tradition. Expect to see fields of farro and saffron, as well as many (edible) chestnut trees. All these make their way into the area’s renowned traditional dishes.

During a Culinary Vacation in Central Italy, you’ll learn how to cook and savor authentic local dishes, prepared by local chefs. You’ll uncover the secrets of Italian cooking, visit colorful farmers’ markets, and learn from local producers. In addition, some packages include sightseeing tours, walks by the seaside, or winery visits.

You’ll stay in charming accommodations, ranging from cozy apartments to majestic castles. No matter if you want to explore a bustling city or prefer to stay in the relaxing countryside, you’re spoiled for choice.

Central Italy is a year-round destination for any holiday, including a culinary one.

However, the produce available, dishes, and festivals are seasonal. Autumn (October – November) is a great time to visit if you want to partake in the olives or grapes harvest.

Winter (December -January) is when you’ll rejoice in visiting Christmas Markets. Spring is another lovely time to visit, especially if you’d like to be there for Easter or enjoy the season’s abundance of fresh produce. Summer (July – August) is the peak travel season which comes with crowds and hot temperatures.
