About your trip

A Culinary & Cultural Journey with a Sommelier Leading the Way.

Overview:

From the markets of Catania to the vineyards of Alcamo, this 9-day tour immerses you in Sicily’s rich flavors, landscapes, and ancient heritage. Begin in Catania with a welcome dinner and food tour through its vibrant market, then explore the hilltop charm of Taormina. Wander pistachio groves near Mount Etna and indulge in a wine-paired lunch at the famed Donnafugata estate. Visit Siracusa’s stunning Ortigia island and taste Nero d’Avola near the sea. Discover Baroque jewels like Ragusa and Modica, sample heritage chocolate, and dine at a Michelin-starred bistro. Continue to Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples and sip local wines in a historic “baglio.” In Palermo, experience 2,700 years of history and conclude with a grand finale—wines and traditional fare in Alcamo. With expert guides, boutique accommodations, and meals that celebrate Sicilian tradition, this is a true taste of the island—authentic, flavorful, and unforgettable.
