Gramado + Linha Nova Italian Immigration Tour
Description
At the scheduled time, we'll collect you from your hotel in Gramada onboard a jardineira. On this typical Brazilian bus, we'll begin to tour the city in search of the legacy of Italian immigration.
We'll first make our way towards the Família Masotti Winery, where we'll visit their vineyards and facilities. Of course, we'll also taste some of their wines, while learning to differentiate their nuances of aroma, flavour and colour.
The next stop will be at the Velho Casarão Farm. On this estate, whose landowners are also of European origins, we'll see a dedicated presentation to Vicenzo Marcon. Did you know that he was one of the pioneers of Italian immigration in the south of Brazil?
We'll continue the tour by visiting the Cavichion Mill, which was originally used by German and Italian settlers who arrived in Gramado in the 20th century. After learning about its history, we'll make our way to the Linha Bella Cantina, an Italian restaurant where we'll enjoy a typical buffet lunch. The menu includes different traditional dishes made in a woodfire oven.
After eating, we'll leave Gramado behind and keep driving for an hour until we reach Linha Nova. At this town in Río Grande do Sul we'll continue discovering the Italian legacy in southern Brazil. For this, we'll visit the first butcher and slaughterhouse in the region, which was also run by settlers. We'll also visit the city's first-ever market.
From Limha Nova, we'll finally return to the hotels in Gramado, where we'll arrive after around 6 hours together.
