Itinerary

Duomo di Taormina

45 min

Our Sicilian adventure begins with a journey through the island’s world-class wines. Renowned for its bold and expressive flavors, Sicily invites us to indulge in signature varietals like the robust Nero d’Avola, the smooth and spicy Cerasuolo di Vittoria, and the earthy elegance of Etna reds, born from volcanic soil. With each sip, we’re swept into the heart of Sicilian culture, surrounded by the lively buzz of Taormina’s piazzas, colorful facades, and sun-drenched streets. Alongside the wine, enjoy a handpicked selection of Sicilian cold cuts and cheeses. Cured with local herbs and spices, the meats offer bold, Mediterranean flavors, perfectly complemented by cheeses like sharp Pecorino Siciliano and the nutty, smooth Caciocavallo. Together, they capture the true essence of Sicily’s rich culinary heritage.
Ancient Theatre of Taormina

45 min

Next on the tasting journey is the iconic arancino, a golden, crispy rice ball filled with delicious surprises like savory ragù, melted cheese, or tender peas. Crunchy on the outside and bursting with flavor inside, it’s a perfect bite of Sicilian comfort. This stop is located near the ancient Greek Theatre of Taormina, one of the town’s most iconic landmarks, adding a touch of history to your culinary journey.
Villa Comunale

45 min

You’ll also savor the authentic Focaccia Messinese, a soft, aromatic Sicilian bread topped with juicy tomatoes, briny olives, and sweet onions, all infused with fragrant local herbs. It’s a warm, flavorful bite that perfectly showcases the heart of traditional Sicilian baking.
Palazzo Corvaja

45 min

No visit to Taormina is complete without indulging in the iconic Cannolo Siciliano, a crisp, golden shell filled with sweet ricotta and topped with delights like pistachios, chocolate chips, or candied fruit. Prefer something refreshing? Try a traditional granita, Sicily’s famous semi-frozen dessert, bursting with flavors like lemon, almond, or coffee. Whether creamy or icy, it’s a sweet finale that captures the soul of Sicilian dessert culture.
