Overview

Today, we invite you to embark on a journey through this picturesque Sicilian destination, beginning with a visit to the iconic Castelbuono Castle.

An hour drive from Castelbuono takes you deep into the picturesque countryside, where rolling hills dotted with grazing cows set the scene for an authentic Sicilian adventure. You'll have cheese making demonstration and lunch with the farmer.
