Your professional guide, expert in History and Archaeology, will show you all the treasures and secrets of this incredible city. Originally, its name was Maleventum (bad wind): the Romans, after an incredible military victory, decided to turn it into Beneventum (good wind)!
Traces of the strong presence of the ancient Romans are practically scattered throughout the city: the Majestic Arch of Trajan, symbol of Benevento; the remains of the Amphitheater, very similar to the Theatre of Marcellus in Rome.
Walking, you can not help noticing that many details celebrate the historical phases of Benevento: from the Lombards then, to the Middle Ages (see the Cimitero dei Morticelli), up to more recent times.
The second stop of your tour will be a nearby village, Sant'Agata de Goti: you will simply remain in love! Its narrow streets, its poetic and romantic skyline in every season: the perfect conclusion will be a lunch or dinner in one of the local restaurants, where you will taste typical products and wines.
