COOKING & WALKING TOURS in ITALY
CALENDAR 2013
In 2013 we are specializing in private tours so that our founder, Anita Iaconangelo, can dedicate time to completing her book, Savoring Sicily: A Culinary Quest.
You can still join a limited number of our small group departures, book a pampered independent stay on our new "Go for Baroque" program in Sicily, or it's not too soon to think about 2014.
Our prices are guaranteed in US dollars. Once you book your tour, the price is guaranteed so you are protected from exchange rate fluctuations. |
