A famous German writer (Goethe) once said: " you haven't seen Italy if you have not been to Sicily". Sicily is in my top 3 favorite destinations and this would be my 4th trip on the island. I think this is my signature trip, so I can guarantee you will love it! Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean, is a place of remarkable beauty, rich history, and a unique cultural blend that makes it an enticing destination for travelers. It offers an enticing blend of history, culture, natural beauty, and culinary delights that will captivate any traveler. Whether you're seeking relaxation on the beach, a deep dive into history and art, or an adventure in the great outdoors, Sicily has something for everyone. Sicilian cuisine is a feast for the senses. Savor the flavors of arancini (rice balls), pasta con le sarde (pasta with sardines), cannoli (sweet pastries), and the island's famous seafood dishes. Sicilian wines, like Nero d'Avola and Marsala, are renowned worldwide. You should join this trip if you want to discover a very traditional and authentic Italy, if you love food and of course you love traveling!

I am easy going and I have a lot of energy when it comes to sightseeing :) My top 3 countries are Greece, Italy and Spain. (Portugal is quite there as well). At some point I was thinking to move there, but which one to choose ?! Join me on a trip to find out why I cannot decide!

The Tonnara di Scopello is a centuries-old tuna fishery that dates back to the 13th century. It is one of the last remaining examples of a traditional tonnara in Sicily, showcasing the historical practices of tuna fishing, which were once widespread along the Sicilian coast. The surrounding area, including the Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro (Zingaro Nature Reserve), is a protected natural reserve. It offers hiking trails, pristine beaches, and opportunities for nature enthusiasts to appreciate Sicily's diverse flora and fauna.
