Island
At A Glance
Basilicata is Italy's last true wilderness, and therefore popular with our clients who just want to get away from it all. This is a land of high hills, deep forests and surprising, wonderful villages.
The region does not have any airports although direct flights to Brindisi, Bari and Naples are all convenient for access.

Resorts
Montescaglioso
More infoWith a long and complex history, Montescaglioso has much to hold the attention of visitors. The lack of tourism has allowed the town to retain its charm, while visitors are welcomed by friendly locals.
Trivigno, Potenza
More infoTrivigno is a tiny town, some 25km from Potenza, making this an idea base in the "real" Basilicata!

The Insider
Regional Food
The cuisine is surprisingly spicy and strongly flavoured. Cheese, particularly strong and matured, is particularly popular, and mutton and goat are no strangers to the menu.
Local Wine
Although Basilicata's wines are not renowned for their quality, they are great "holiday" wines and wonderfully cheap. Look out for Aglianico del Vulture and Rosso di Roccanova in particular.
