Discover a more personal side of Sicily on this deluxe journey through Baroque towns, vineyard estates, coastal villages and volcanic landscapes. Beyond the island’s best-known sights, this thoughtfully curated itinerary introduces you to Sicily through its food, wine, craftsmanship and local traditions.

Begin in Syracuse and Ortigia before exploring Noto’s ornate architecture. Continue through Ragusa Ibla and Modica, travelling by Trenino Barocco, discovering traditional chocolate-making and tasting Sicilian wines at Occhipinti Winery.

In Menfi, stay among vineyards and olive groves at Masseria del Carboj, where a Sunset Wine and Olive Oil Experience and private Vineyard Dinner bring Sicily’s produce to the forefront. Visit Florio Winery and the salt pans of Marsala, sample cassatelle in Scopello, enjoy a pasta lunch in Castellammare del Golfo and experience Palermo’s Opera dei Pupi – a living tradition of Sicilian storytelling.
