Tour with Cooking Lesson in Cammarata and San Giovanni Gemini
The cooking lesson but also the gastronomic tour par excellence, in the name of "slow-food" in the Sicani mountains, an apotheosis for the taste buds to discover high quality products such as "pecorino D.O.P." awarded on several occasions as the best in Sicily. Other milk derivatives such as mozzarella and ricotta are also excellent. And again, we will learn about flour derivatives (bread, biscuits, pasta) from ancient grains (Tumminia, Russello, Perciasacchi). A further excellence is given by olive oil which has been recognized as the "Best extra virgin olive oil in the world" and the wine of an award-winning local winery in Brussels and chosen several times as "the pope's wine". Finally, the meat of sheep and beef, and a visit to the local market awaits us where we will buy the raw materials and then wear “u fadali” (apron) and put our hands in the dough together with the chef.
Agrigento to Taormina Tour with a stop in Agrigento and Armerina
Visit the Valley of the Temples: two hours audio-guide independent walking tour in the Valley of the Temples. Agrigento, according to legend, was founded by Daedalus and his son Icarus after they had fled from Crete “by air”. Historically, however, its origins date back to 582 B.C. when it was founded by Rhodian-Cretan colonists from the neighboring Gela who named their city Akragas after the nearby river. This afternoon we then continue onto Piazza Armerina to enjoy an independent visit to the amazing Mosaics Floor at the Roman Villa of Casale. Built in the 4th century AD, it is the supreme example of a luxury Roman villa (about 3500 square meters of floor mosaics) and was the residence of a member of the upper class of the Roman Empire. The mosaics discovered here are celebrated among scholars of antiquity. The visit inside the Roman Villa will be done independently. Later onto Taormina. Guaranteed departure with minimum 2 travelers
