PAPAL FOOD EXPERIENCE

Enjoy a divine day in Castel Gandolfo. Come and indulge in a cooking class and lunch at the Pope’s farm, tour the Papal Palace and soak up the charming atmosphere of this classic Italian hilltop town. Remiscent of Tuscany’s fabled landscape, the Alban hills are 20 km from central Rome, and where Romans escape to the coutryside. Castel Gandolfo is the finest of the hilltop towns, benifiting from an exsqusite spot overlooking the fantastically blue volcanic lake. Emperor Domitian built a summer villa here, the ruins of which are within the estate of the Pontifical Villas. We invite you to enjoy this splendid part of the Roman countryside as Popes have been doing since the 16th century.

Venture into the surrounding hillside for a divine day on the papal estate. Your day trip starts with a visit to the Apostolic Palace before we transport you to the Pope’s personal farm where your culinary adventure begins. Here you’ll master the art of cooking Italian cuisine through a hands-on cooking class using the freshest farm-to-table produce. Then indulge in a lingering lunch on the papal farm, finishing the day by exploring the lush Barberini Gardens and Castel Gandolfo’s historic center.
