Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Port of Messina, Via Vittorio Emanuele II, 27, 98122 Messina ME, Italy
Step off the beaten path of standard tours in Sicily visiting an ancient farmhouse on Etna slope. Your personal friendly English speaking guide will pick you up at your accommodation or port in Messina, and in relax will chauffeur you to Etna slope while you admire the scenery of the Sicilian countryside, Mediterranean Sea and mountains, as well as hardened Etna lava flows. After 1-hour ride you will arrive at a family run old milestone of 1800 year farmhouse producing wines, dairy, meat, fruits and vegetables. The owner of the farmhouse will welcome you with a glass of refreshing Etna wine, and you will take a guided tour of the estate while your native local guide tells you interesting stories about history and culture of Sicily. You can walk around this beautiful authentic countryside farm even barefoot, if you wish!
Then take a seat at the outdoor patio and enjoy delicious and hearty traditional Sicilian lunch at the farmhouse. Taste all locally produced organic fresh food - cheeses, salami, prosciutto, bruschettas, traditional Sicilian relish caponata and parmigiana, olives, mushrooms, vegetables, extra virgin olive oil and fresh home-made bread with Etna red and white wines.
Duration: 6 hours
