Cooking, Wine, Walking & Volcanoes In Sicily |
|
 Explore N.E. Sicily in the foot hills of Mt. Etna, Taormina & volcanic Aeolian island of Stromboli with spectacular nature & beauty.
Eat, learn to cook, drink good wines, laugh and explore with a cast of welcoming, fun loving Sicilians.
Cook with local people who share their cooking secrets: a warm family in their home, a family in their restaurant in Mount Etna's foothills and a delightful restaurant on Stromboli.
Savour dishes like sardines stuffed with bread, tomatoes, raisins & pine nuts, penne stromobolana with black olives, grilled eggplant with mint or semifreddo with pistachio & chocolate.
Take easy or moderate hikes in Mount Etna's foothills and on the island of Stromboli. Dine on a patio and watch Stromboli's active volcano hurling its fire into the night sky.
