Overview
Our Calabria tour takes you into the heart of a world of contrasts, a natural landscape that astounds and enchants in equal measure and which will leave you constantly scrabbling for your camera or simply contemplating the majesty of nature’s brushstrokes.
Equally, humanity’s hand here has been sympathetic and noble in its use of the chaotic geography of the setting: from the swagger of Greco-Roman towns to quaint Albanian Greek refuges, from Norman military grandeur to the artistic triumphs of ornate Baroque churches and medieval monastic frescoes, Calabria is a cornucopia of historic sites.
We lead you on a circumnavigation of the secluded peninsula from aristocratic Altomonte and Morano, perched precariously on the slopes of the Pollino, down the Ionian coast to discover the remains of glorious Sibari. We hear an antique version of Albanian on the streets of San Demetrio Corone before traversing the heights of the luxuriant Sila plateau where we can relax on the banks of its idyllic lakes.
