What you can expect

Learn about Calabria's centuries-old history on a private tour of the Scolacium Archaeological Park and the village of Squillace, exploring archaeology, art and authentic traditions.

Depart in comfort in a minivan with driver and travel to the Scolacium Archaeological Park, one of the region's most fascinating sites, nestled among centuries-old olive trees in a stunning natural setting.

Here, you can admire the ruins of the ancient Greco-Roman city, including the theatre, the amphitheatre, and the forum, as well as the striking Norman Basilica of Santa Maria della Roccella. During your guided tour, you will learn about the history of the site, from its Greek origins through the Roman and medieval periods.

After the visit, you will have the option of enjoying lunch at a typical local restaurant (not included) to sample the local cuisine.

The tour continues to Squillace, known as the “village of ceramics” and renowned for its long-standing artisan tradition.

You will wander the narrow streets of the old town, visit the Norman castle and the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta, and have the opportunity to enter a local pottery workshop to learn about the craftsmanship techniques and the handmade creations up close.

This authentic experience combines history, culture, and craftsmanship and is ideal for couples and small groups looking to discover the real Calabria in a relaxed setting.
