A journey into the soul of the Langhe

The train you travel on is historic, with restored vintage carriages and during the journey you are welcomed with a glass of Asti Spumante DOCG and Amaretti di Mombaruzzo while a Narrator of the Territory introduces you to the geography and culture of the place and to the experience you will have once you reach the destination.

The Langhe Train aims to be more than a journey through a physical landscape; it is an invitation to engage with a place, to experience it, immersing yourself in its culture at a slow pace.
