Join us for an Italian cooking vacation to entrancing Sicily, an exotic location that has beckoned travelers for centuries. A repository of every great Mediterranean civilization, Sicily still bears the cultural and gastronomic influences and the archeological remains of the many peoples who have ruled it. From Palermo to Taormina, Sicily lives on as a land of deep blue skies, temperate climate, lush vegetation and abundant marine life.
