Experience a day of serenity and spiritual beauty on this private tour to Subiaco and Cervara di Roma, two hidden treasures of Lazio. Begin in Subiaco, the spiritual cradle of Western monasticism, visiting the Monastery of Saint Scholastica with its peaceful cloisters, libraries, and over a thousand years of continuous prayer. Ascend to the San Benedetto Monastery, perched dramatically on the mountainside above the sacred cave where St. Benedict once lived, and admire the vivid medieval frescoes depicting biblical scenes, saints, and pilgrims.
In the afternoon, continue to Cervara di Roma, a mountaintop village cherished by artists and travelers for its poetic charm and stunning views. Wander its stone staircases, explore open-air art installations, and take in breathtaking vistas over the Simbruini Mountains and Aniene Valley. This private and customizable tour blends quiet reflection, awe-inspiring landscapes, and deep connection to the spiritual and artistic heart of central Italy, offering a peaceful and enriching escape from the everyday.
