Do this because

You get to visit the Piedigrotta cave‑church and see some of its faith-based rock carvings

After a guided tour through Pizzo's old streets, you'll have time to explore at your own pace

A tasting of the iconic Tartufo di Pizzo is included, along with a lively demonstration of how it's made

What to expect

Small cobble streets, sea air and a chocolaty dessert – you can expect all three on this tour. From Tropea, you'll head to Pizzo and make your way down to the Piedigrotta cave-church, where faith and folklore are carved straight into the rock. Back in town, you'll wander Pizzo's old streets on a guided tour, pausing for stories and photo opportunities at coastal viewpoints. Then comes the sweet part, a live Tartufo di Pizzo demo and tasting. After you've had your fill of this chocolate truffle treat, you're free to wander and settle into Calabria at your own pace.

...eine Live-Vorführung und Verkostung des Tartufo di Pizzo. Nachdem Sie sich an den Schokoladentrüffeln satt gegessen haben... So wurde es angeboten. Es gab aber keine Live-Vorführung und von satt essen kann man nicht sprechen. Kleine übersichtliche Portion, lieblos angeboten.

Der Ausflug war zeitlich vollkommen angemessen. Etwas mehr Zeit in Pizzo wäre schön gewesen, da die kleine Stadt einen tollen Scharm hat und ein paar schöne Lädchen zum schlendern einladen. Die Besichtigung der Grotte war beeindruckend, und das Tartufo Eis das Highlight am Ende. Die Empfehlungen von Reiseleitung. Uschi möchten wir besonders hervorheben. Sie ist sehr angenehm in ihrer Beratung und hat ganz tolle Hilfestellungen gegeben.

The tour guide barely spoke English so we didn't really know what was going on or what she was talking about. We had to keep asking her what she'd said, she was friendly enough but it was frustrating. There was no guided tour of Pizzo, just a walk from the coach to the main square & being pointed out the castle. There was no Tartufo demo, we were just sat in a cafe & served one.

Langwieriger Tripp. Grotten Besuch wäre nicht unbedingt notwendig gewesen. Das Tartufo Eis (Schokolade pur) war einsame Spitze. Leider gab es keine Vorführung über die Produktion des berühmten Tartufos. Ansonsten hat Pizzo nicht besonders viel zu bieten. Die Reisbegleitung hat sehr gutes Wissen, welches sie in Deutsch und Englisch verständlich und gut vermitteln kann!
