Top Langhe-Roero and Monferrato Historical Tours

Discover the Piedmont town of Alba on a private walking tour, and learn about its connections with fine food and Roman ruins. As you stroll with a local guide, you’ll discover gems such as the Cattedrale di San Lorenzo and the baroque and medieval architecture around the historic center. If access is possible, you’ll also visit the underground ruins of Alba Pompeia, which hark back to Roman days.

In Piedmont, between the southern banks of the River Po and the Apennine Mountains of the Liguria Region, the hills of the Langhe-Roero and Monferrato territories are located, covered with their legendary vineyards, making them an UNESCO Wolrd Heritage site since 2014. But wine is not the only treasure kept in these lands. White and black truffles spontaneously grow in the woods around the city of Alba and, of course, they have a leading role in local cuisine! On this tour, enjoy a guided walking tour in the city of Alba, discovering the Cathedral and the historical center. Then have an introduction to Alba's Truffles' and some time to shop in a traditional deli store. After lunch in a typical trattoria (tavern), you are transferred to Barolo where you will have a guided visit of the Wine Museum. Then head to a close-by winery and visit with the winegrowers of the cellars and the vineyards. Enjoy a wine tasting accompanied by appetizers.

A path entirely within the Unesco Canelli core area and L'asti spumante, among vineyards, castles and panoramic towers. Medium difficulty route, with off-road sections that require a fair mastery of the bicycle, and short uphill stretches to be tackled with ebikes or by trained people. During the excursion we will stop in the cellar for a wine tasting.
