Phenomenal trip- an 11!! Fabulous food, fantastic accomodations and interesting and varied side trips to experience different aspects of Sicily. Alessandro and Polina have outdone themselves. Highly recommend!!

An absolutely beautiful experience of sights, tastes, music, and hospitality by our two hosts Alessandro and Polina. Our stay in Sicily was truly a memorable time with everything taken care of by them as soon as we got off the plane in Catania until the time it was ready to leave for home again. There were so many unexpected and wonderful surprises throughout our stay that went even beyond what they advertised and we look forward to staying with them again on another tour. We wish Alessandro and Polina all the best for themselves and their business. Ciao! C & D.

It was a very good trip. The accommodation was excellent, a modern spacious villa with pool. The food was delicious and geared to introducing the favorite dishes and flavors of Sicily. The daily excursions provided opportunities to experience the history, art, architecture and landscape of the Island. Every effort was made to make our holiday one to remember.
