We are proud to be partnering with Adele Newton, whose family emigrated from Pisticci to Canada, for our first Basilicata tour, a tour that celebrates the people who have always lived in Basilicata, and the people who are choosing to come here, to make it their home. Lucania has always been a crossroads, shaped by everyone from the Greeks to the Bourbons. Now the Lucani of the diaspora are writing a new chapter.

You’ll find Adele’s tour here. You’ll stay at Torre Fiore, a farmhouse in Pisticci restored to a luxury hotel by the Giannone family—Lucani who emigrated to Toronto, then returned to build something that honors where they came from, and who they have become. The April tour is sold out, but there are still spots available for the October tour, which coincides with the Feast of San Vincenzo, the patron saint of Craco.

We’d love to work with other Lucani to craft tours that honor their stories and their communities.
