Tucci in Italy

The series follows Tucci across Italy's stunning landscapes as he explores the deep connections between food, culture and history. More than a travelogue, it's a rich, narrative-driven dive into the country's iconic culinary traditions. Along the way, Tucci meets locals, chefs, artisans -- and even cowboys -- to uncover hidden gems and untold stories with National Geographic's signature storytelling and his trademark wit. Tucci indulges in a Sienese feast in Tuscany, samples farm-to-table innovation in Lombardy, and rediscovers Lazio's rustic soul. For the first time, he visits Trentino-Alto Adige for pine needle pesto in the Alps and explores Abruzzo's wild seafood rituals atop a centuries-old trabocco. This is Italy like you've never seen it -- flavorful, heartfelt and unforgettable.
