What people love about Sicily Tours from Catania
- Small Group Sicily Food & Wine Tour (Maximum 8 Guests)
The trip was very well organized and executed beautifully. There were no hiccups in scheduling, and flexible to divert the pre-planned route in case there was an interest in the group. The meals included in the tour were at stellar spots, which beautifully illustrated wonderful cuisine of Sicily, and the diversification of it from one region to another. Winery tours are something wonderful and the memories will stay with us for long times. The wineries on the tours also showed how diversified the wine production in Sicily is, how it emerges now to the world market, and the wineries selected showed the difference in larger (but not "industrialized") operations vs. smaller "boutique" style wineries. All setup in a beautiful spots, the Gambino winery on the mount Etna, with beautiful organically produced wines and wonderful enthusiastic guides, Pupilo winery in Siracusa is a smaller family owned production setup in a beautiful and historical estate with botanical garden. The guides from Sicily Activities were really good, passionate about Sicily, its history and progression, local foods, wines, stories. They were engaging and very personable. The group sizes are indeed very small. Hotel accommodations were of high quality, in excellent very convenient locations. Additionally, the tour organizers were available at various times to address questions, or to provide additional insight or recommendations for the free time in towns. Thank you for a wonderful experience, Sicily Activities, Massimo, Rosario, Valerio and Naida!

Tour was fabulous. Our tour leader Luca was amazing - incredibly knowledgeable, organized and helpful. Our tour group of 14 got along well and we really enjoyed each other’s company. Luca organized an optional dinner each evening and all opted to attend every dinner. We saw amazing sites and ate fabulous food. I would love to do another G Adventures tour.
