8 days, 4 nights with an optional Eastern Sicily Prelude


Delight in hands-on cooking classes, wine tastings of Sicily’s outstanding vintages, and interaction with locals. You’ll learn time-tested recipes of traditional Sicilian dishes while relishing the beauty and enchantment of central and western Sicily’s UNESCO sites and hidden communities. We’ll savor moments in Palermo’s vibrant markets, among the trees at an organic olive farm, with singing sheep at a family-run dairy (mmm… fresh ricotta!), and by getting our hands in the dough with home-schooled mammas and trained chefs. Co-hosted by our favorite Sicilian chefs, you’ll be entertained while having the peace of mind that we’ve taken care of all the details. Join us for our eastern Sicily prelude tour based in Siracusa!
