This episode also features a literary tour of Genoa with Bruno Morchio, an author of "Mediterranean noir" novels, and a nature-focused excursion in the lagoon of Rangiroa, in French Polynesia, where black pearls are cultivated.

    S3:E3

    Patrizio is in Brisighella, in the province of Ravenna, amidst the "Via degli Asini" (Donkey Alley), a 2nd-century BC parish church, and a Roman olive press. There is an intricate web of connections here, linking agricultural products, the local territory and landscape, cultivation methods, history, and tradition, all the way through to consumption and tourism. Syusy, meanwhile, has set off to explore our origins in an ancient land: Mongolia. We witness the Naadam festival, an encounter with a (genuine) shaman, who, surprisingly, lives in an apartment building, and the traditional nomadic dwellings known as yurts.

    Patrizio is in Sabbioneta, the "little Athens" of the Mantua area—following in the footsteps of the Gonzaga family. His slow-paced journey continues along the course of the Po River, taking in everything from a floating watermill to a local restaurant. Meanwhile, Syusy is far, far away, in Mongolia! She’s traveling long distances by off-road vehicle along dirt tracks beneath endless skies, spending her nights in *ger* (yurt) encampments. Near Karakorum, she discovers a mysterious stele bearing inscriptions in three different languages: Proto-Turkic, Chinese, and a runic script. And the mystery deepens: atop the stele sits a statue of a she-wolf nursing two female twins! A she-wolf? Twins?

    S3:E5

    Patrizio travels through the Polesine region in Veneto, stopping at Ca' Zen, once the place of exile for Lord Byron’s muse. The atmosphere is hushed and melancholic, a unique blend of Venetian, Padan, and Anglo-Saxon influences. Meanwhile, Syusy finds herself in what might be the slowest, most romantic spot on earth: Rangiroa, in French Polynesia. A place already chronicled by Folco Quilici, it even drew Jacques Cousteau for his diving expeditions.

    S3:E6

    A Slow Tour means being in the right place at the right time, for instance, finding yourself in Gubbio on May 15th, the day of the grand Festa dei Ceri! Every year, 45,000 people turn out for the alzata dei ceri (the raising of the ceri), all trying to squeeze into a town square that can hold, at most, 10,000! The Festa dei Ceri is no mere reenactment; it is an event that renews itself year after year, following a well-defined ritual that involves the entire local population.

Later, Patrizio takes us on another Italian slow tour, this time along the Mincio River and the lakes of Mantua, exploring the area partly by boat and partly by bicycle.
