At 8:00 am, we will meet at the port of Salerno and drive south to the archaeological site of Paestum, approximately 50 minutes away.

We will begin a guided tour of this World Heritage city, symbolizing Classical Antiquity. The tour will include visits to perfectly preserved Doric style temples, including the shrine to Hera, dating back to the 6th century B.C. We will also access the National Museum of Paestum to learn more about this site's history.

After the historical tour, we will cross the plain of the Piana del Sele, known for its buffalo breeding farms, where milk is used to produce mozzarella.

We will stop at a factory to observe the care of the buffaloes and discover the mozzarella-making process. A tasting of the product will also be included.

After the visit, we will return to the vehicle and drive back to Salerno, arriving at 4:00 pm.
