PROGRAMME Etna Food and Wine Tour

Day 1

The Etna Food and Wine Tour will begin with a day's arrival at the Barone di Villagrande Wine Resort in Milo. First of all, the first encounter is a sight you will always remember. The 18th century palace appears amidst the vineyards and woods of the estate. It reflects the hills, the sky, the vineyards, and, depending on the light and the sun, takes on the colour of green, blue, pink. Moreover, from its 700-metre height, the panorama runs over the vineyards, the hills, all the way to the sea at Taormina. A perfect experience among Etna's noblest vineyards.

In the evening, a dinner will be organised at the Barone di Villagrande restaurant, with five dishes from the tasting menu paired with a selection of five wines from the cellar. The daily seasonal tasting menu varies according to available products and requests. Afterwards, sit back and relax in one of the rooms directly inside the Wine Resort.

Day II

After breakfast, head towards Nicolosi, which is easily reached by car. From here, you will start your excursion to Mount Etna, Europe's highest active volcano. Specifically, this will be an excursion by cable car and jeep. Using the 'Funivia dell'Etna' (Etna cable car), you can easily reach an altitude of up to 2900 m (depending on the volcanic activity during the period), close to the summit cones. From here, with the Alpine Guides, you will make a tour of about 45 minutes during which, on a clear day, you can enjoy a view that sweeps from the Ionian coast to the interior of Sicily.

In the afternoon, you will return to Baglio di Villagrande, where you will be expected to visit the wine cellar with a tasting: a selection of five wines, each paired with a finger-food. Finally, relax with an overnight stay at the Wine Resort.

Day III

After breakfast, end of our services. However, if you still have some free time left before your return, we recommend that you spend it in the city of Catania, a thousand-year-old city on the east coast of Sicily, which enchants with its majestic Baroque architecture, lively street life, and the imposing view of smoking Mount Etna in the background. From the authentic flavours of Sicilian cuisine to the black sandy beaches, Catania promises an unforgettable experience in the heart of the island.
