The experience of discovery: the Phlegraean Fields

15 giugno 2018

The Side by Sidecar Cultural Association is a project born from passion!

Friends of all time and all inveterate travelers we have the habit of organizing our next trip inspired by what we are experiencing. It's like food: the better it is, the more we love to talk about it during our dinners! We consider ourselves particularly lucky because we live in an area of our city that is unique in the world.

The Phlegraean Fields are the part that emerges from a huge volcanic crater that reminds us every day of being absolutely active. Today, here in the territory where the sulphurous warm waters flow to the sea and the Roman empire has left countless testimonies of its presence, fishing represents the main local economy. The sight of the lakes is truly magnificent.

Our Tour Flegreo is a journey that traces the roads that the Romans traveled for their holidays. We will take you around ruins, castles, breathtaking views, steep alleys and scenic roads. You will meet people who speak an incomprehensible dialect but who will be able to make you laugh and have fun, you will see the fishermen gather their nets and sell the catch of the day.

On our sidecar tour you will have the opportunity to smell both the Solfatara and jasmine which populate the area, see the sun set in a mirror of water without being able to immediately understand if it is a lake or one of our gulfs. We are proud to show our friends the places we love.
