I am trying to set up an all day wine tour for 6 people on June 4th in Southern Sicily.
We are staying at a villa in Augusta, and would love an English speaking guide to take us to several wineries somewhere in the VITTORIA, Val di Noto, Ragusa, or Modica region or even Syracuse area. Looking to include food as well - either lunch or different tastings.
I have been looking but have not had any success….any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks, Margaret
I don't have specific recommendations but here are some ideas if you aren't finding organized wine tours. Consider to call or email any or all of the following who might know how to do it:
-one of the "regular" guides in Rick Steves book, example Francesca Giovatto in Ragusa
-one of the drivers in Rick Steves book, example Salvatore Giurdanella in Siracusa (in planning my own Sicily trip I have seen on this board recommendations other drivers who have taken people all over the place)
-one of the wine shops or restaurants in Rick Steves books, example Il Borocco Enoteca in Ragusa
-writer of wine blogs or such, here is one https://grapecollective.com/articles/gulfi-sicilys-wine-of-the-people
-individual wineries
Enjoy the planning!
