What is an Italian aperitivo?
An Italian aperitivo is much more than a pre-dinner drink, it’s a daily ritual that brings people together to relax, socialize and enjoy good food and drinks before the evening begins.

Our Italian Aperitivo Experience recreates this authentic tradition in the comfort of your own villa, allowing you to experience one of the most iconic moments of Italian lifestyle.
