On arrival at the
port you will check-in and board the catamaran. The crossing is
estimated to take 90 minutes, however this can be slightly longer on
occasions, depending on weather conditions. The Catamaran is
equipped with restrooms, a very good cafeteria serving a variety of
hot or cold snacks/beverages and a small boutique/gift shop.
On arrival in Pozzallo you will be greeted by the local guide and
transport.
We start with a visit to Marzamemi where we visit the village and
the Campisi establishment, famous for it's preserves. Campisi
specialises in fish delicacies and other popular Italian favourites
such as fish eggs, raw tuna (bottarga), red tuna, traditional
Italian sauces and preserves made from the famous Pachino tomatoes
cultivated only in this area of Sicily. Our next visit is to a wine
cellar which produces wines from local grapes, particularly the Nero
D'Avola and the famous desert wine Moscato di Noto.
Included during this gastronomic experience is a typical local lunch
at an agriturismo farm in the village of La Diga di S. Rosalia.
Our next stop includes a visit to the Baroque city of Modica to
enjoy some time in the city centre and the popular "Il Corso".
Modica once so important as to constitute a kingdom within the
kingdom, is today a prosperous town still dependent on its
traditional agricultural economy. The beautiful flight of steps
leading to the main entrance and the statues representing the twelve
apostles are the main features of S. Pietro's church. The main
street or "Corso", with it's mixture of magnificent buildings,
modern shops and al fresco cafes. It is a thriving town centre. Here
we will also visit the Bonaiuto Chocolate factory...you can sample
the chocolate and of course you will have free time to purchase if
you wish. Our final culinary experience will be to a small local
establishment that produces a selection of different cheeses,
including the famous Caciovallo Ragusano.
We return back to
