Sicily Upon arrival Sicily, included transfer
to the hotel and check-in. Rooms will be ready

(It's more than an island!
Discover Sicily and discover the world. The
world's first multicultural society, Sicily
is Italy's (and Europe's) most historically
cosmopolitan region, having been ruled by Asians,
Africans and Europeans. Sicily is black and
white and a million shades of gray. There's
no other place on Earth like Sicily. The island
is a unique place full of art, archaeology,
history, folklore and breathtaking scenery.
Tonight our local guide, Angela, will meet
you for dinner. Our hotel tonight is the Federico
II in Palermo or similar.
• WELCOME DINNER INCLUDED
Day 2 | Welcome To Sicily
After breakfast we visit our first stop up to
the surrounding hills to see the best view of
the Madonie Park . Transfer in Polizzi Generosa
, a small village , surrounded by cheerful countryside
and green pastures.
Enjoy a Visit of Polizzi Generosa. It lies in
the Madonie Mountains' Natural Park. This internal
region between the Northern Coast and Central
Sicily has a wealth of ancient small villages,
where many people still live according to the
Sicilian traditions. It is an ancient village
rich in historical and artistic attractions.
We will have time for a visit to the Park's
Museum. During the walk through the town's medieval
streets, guests will have a break for a sampling
of typical sweetmeats.
Later today you will enjoy either our cooking
lesson or a continuation of our touring.
You Choose:
Culinary Experience: Then we’re
off for a lovely drive through the beautiful
village to the home of a private family where
you will enjoy a cooking lesson. The owner will
teach you to prepare some of the most popular
and essential recipes according to the local
tradition and of course homemade pasta. Enjoy
Lunch with our new friends.
Touring: Departure to Cefalù
known for its long golden beach as well as for
other monumental and artistic "jewels",
the Norman Duomo, initiated under Roger II in
1131, preserves precious mosaics which adorn
the apse and a representation of Christ Pantocrator.
Of great interest is the striking medieval wash-house
and the Mandralisca museum, the latter preserving
the famous portrait of an unknown man by Antonello
da Messina. A visit to Cefalù cannot
exclude a stroll along the lanes in the historical
centre where you can linger amongst the numerous
shops of ceramics and souvenirs. Back to Palermo
. Dinner on your own and overnight .
