In the Lands of Aquileia, hospitality has traditionally gone hand in hand with the development of the Roman city, its river port and the one of Cervignano, together with the seaport of Grado, all active even before the Roman colonization of the territory in 181 BC. Such a tradition also derives from the creation in Roman times of a network of roads radially stretching into the Italian peninsula and to the north and east of Europe and producing the development of rest stops and accommodation facilities for the night, the ancient Roman "stationes", the high medieval "hospitiis", the medieval inns, the successive guest houses to accommodate pilgrims and travellers coming from and going to the Roman city, its emporium, its Basilica, its port, its legendary history.

Over the last century, such a tradition has developed with a number of specialized services to meet the different needs of twenty-first century travellers.

With such a hospitality tradition tourists can satisfy their desire to get an in-depth understanding of the culture of people living in the Land of Aquileia with a tour through the gastronomy of the area, offering a selection of tastes and flavours resulting from the blending of its cultures.
