The Art of Apertivo in Italy

We at Spectacular Journeys love the tradition in Italy of Apertivo! Originally intended to "whet one's appetite" It is a pre-meal and quintessential cultural experience not to be missed on your Italy small group travel or Italy private tour. Cocktails and light snacks are a ritual and great way to unwind prior to dinner. Many bars and cafes compete for customers with their various offerings. Typically, available between 5 pm and 8 pm it's an excellent time to people watch. So, cin cin and salute as you enjoy this lovely tradition.
