The Experience
Only in Sicily can you commune with the culture of Hellenic antiquity, the grandeur of the Middle Ages and the marvels of the Renaissance all forged by a dozen civilizations. Sicily is not just a destination, it is an island crammed with glorious architecture, marvelous landscapes and gastronomical delights almost too good to be believed. Wander rolling hills dotted with olive groves and eucalyptus trees and stroll markets where the people are as colorful as the produce. Journey to the past as you visit wondrous Greek ruins with Mt. Etna rising in the distance. At night, relax in well-appointed accommodations that offer style and comfort.
Meet your private guide and driver and head for the Tasca D’Almerita estate, where you’ll tour an olive grove and vineyard with a wonderful tasting in both. Visit the Sanctuary of Santa Rosalia in Monte Pelligrino and enjoy spectacular views of the bay of Palermo. Wander through the Greek theater in Taormina and take in the sweeping vistas of the sea below. Spend the day experiencing Mount Etna up close and personal with your own naturalist guide. Glimpse the Craters of Silvestri and the wonderful scenic gorges of Alcantara. Ascend to the main crater by cable car and experience the thrill of getting intimate with an active volcano.
