About this tour
This 5–6 hour tour from Ragusa combines agricultural heritage and regional flavours across three settings. Walk through a preserved village of 1930s–40s farmhouses where families once lived alongside livestock, witness traditional crafts, then taste Giarratana onions and other territorial specialities. Finish at a working winery to tour vineyard and cellar, followed by tastings of four Sicilian wines paired with house-made bread, oil, olives and bruschetta.

What to expect
The morning begins at the village museum, where weathered stone houses reveal how families organised domestic life—cooking areas, sleeping quarters, workshops for woodwork and metalcraft. You'll handle regional produce and learn what locals ate. Mid-tour shifts to the working estate: a stroll past rows of vines and olive trees precedes a cellar walkthrough where winemaking techniques are explained. The tasting follows: four wines are presented alongside bread, virgin oil and vegetable-dressed bruschetta, all produced on-site. It's unhurried but social; you won't have a dedicated guide, though the driver manages logistics.
Good to know
Driver provides transport but isn't a trained local guide. Food and wine tastings incur separate costs (€35 wine, €15 oil tasting, €35 lunch items). Infants sit on laps or use specialised seats. Flat to gently rolling terrain suits all fitness levels.
