Our Flavors program will provide an intimate, immersive approach to a set of authentic cultural and culinary experiences. Here, in the most picturesque region of Sicily, we’ll converse with winemakers whose award-winning vineyards thrive on the flanks of Mount Etna and enjoy their boutique wines paired with savory antipasti. We’ll prepare such iconic dishes as pasta alla Norma with Sicilian chefs, then enjoy them in the shade of citrus groves near the coastal town of Catania. The beautiful landscapes of Sicily are populated by the spirits of ancient Greeks and Romans who found paradise on this island. Enjoy an optional 4-day pre-tour trip to Rome and/or optional 3-day Palermo post -tour.
