What to expect
Days split between driving to wine regions, stopping at working wineries for tastings paired with lunch, and exploring Unesco towns on foot with local guides. You'll spend mornings visiting archaeological sites—the Valley of the Temples, Greek theatres, Palermo's historic quarters—then settle into long, unhurried meals mid-afternoon. The cooking class in Erice is hands-on; expect to chop, mix and eat what you've made. Evenings are free to wander towns, eat where locals recommend or rest at your hotel. The pace is deliberate, not rushed. Your driver stays with you throughout, managing logistics so you focus on eating, looking and learning.
