Guide
There will be a cycling leader with the group, plus a bicycle mechanic driving the support van.
Meals
All breakfasts and one dinner are included. Sicilian cuisine is a mix of the different cultures that have called this island home over the millennia: from the Greek and Arabs to the Normans and Spaniards. Soil here is incredibly fertile, with a perfect climate for the cultivation of fresh produce, such as olives, oranges, lemons, aubergines (eggplant), tomatoes, pistachios, almonds, grapes and more. Additionally, mussels, clams, tuna, swordfish and anchovies are fished right off the coast. This wide range of high-quality ingredients serves as a base for myriad dishes, resulting in a cuisine thatโs fresh, varied and delicious. Sicilian wines are also superb: grillo and inzolia are excellent white wines, Cerasuolo di Vittoria and Nero dโAvola are both fabulous reds, and marsala, moscato and zibibbo are wonderful dessert wines. As nearly 90 percent of Italian lemons grow in Sicily, sampling the local limoncello is a must. On this trip there is the chance to join an optional picnic lunch, prepared by the support driver and your leader. Dinners are taken at the hotels or local restaurants recommended by your guide, according to your budget and preferences.
