Banking Hours: banks in Italy are open Monday through Friday from 8:35 a.m. to 1:35 p.m. and from 3:00 - 4:00 p.m.; in many tourist areas they are open no-stop from 8.30 a.m. to 4p.m. and closed all day on Saturday and Sunday and on national holidays. The afternoon one hour opening may vary from city to city. Traveler’s checks can be exchanged for Italian currency at most hotels and shops and at the foreign exchange offices in main railway stations and at the airports.
Pharmacies Pharmacies – Farmacia - generally follow shops times (approx. from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 3:00 to 7:30 p.m., Monday to Saturday, but in large cities many are open no-stop. Nighttime service is provided on a shift basis. business hours and night shifts are displayed outside of each chemist’s (they are also published in local papers). before departure, it is advisable to procure a document certifying coverage by the national healthcare service.

Tipping in iTaly Sit-in Restaurant In many restaurant, the bill comes with the item “servizio”, that’s about 15% of the value. Some people think that the service charge goes to the people who wait your table, unfortunately in the majority of cases it goes straight to the owner. The idea of a “standard” tip of 15-20%, doesn’t exist in Italy. Italians don’t tip that much, even when they do leave a small token, and Italian waiters don’t expect that much. We recommend to tip only if good service is received. In this case, it’s customary to leave a 5-10% tip.
Public Telephones Public telephones are available throughout Italy, but not so common after the advent of mobile phone. either local or international calls require the use of a phone card (Carta Telefonica) which may be purchased at any newsstand, tobacco shop or “bar”(coffee shop). Area Code (Prefisso Telefonico): Following are the area code numbers for some of the principal cities of Italy. Ancona Cagliari Messina Rome Aosta Campobasso Milan Siena bari Catania Naples Turin bergamo Catanzaro Palermo Trento
Drivers For Taxi Drivers a tip of around 5-10% would be ideal, although this depends on the city. A water-taxi in Venice usually receive a tip of 5%, since the service is already so expensive. If the service is prepaid, 3/5 € is perfect for a transfer, according the distance. For a half day disposal, we suggest 8/10 € while for a full day disposal a minimum of 10 € is required. For coach driver in a tour, a daily tip of 2 € per pax is a good tip. At Hotel In hotels if the concierge has been of assistance to you and made your stay a pleasant one a tip of 10 - 15 € is customary, while the chambermaids are happy with a 1 or 2 €.

Electrical Appliances The electrical current in Italy is AC - the cycle is 50Hz 220 V. A tourist carrying electrical appliances to Italy should have a transformer, either obtained before leaving your country or bought at an electrical appliance shop in Italy. Plugs have round prongs, not flat, therefore an european Plug Adapter (round pin) is needed.
Traveling With Your Pet: As of October 2, 2004 a new european Union regulation (eC 998\2003) applies for the non-commercial movement of pet animals (cats, dogs, and ferrets) in the european Union Member States. Pets may enter Italy only if accompanied by their owner or a person responsible for them on behalf of the owner during their movement in Italy, and are not intended for sale. Up to a maximum of five pet animals are permitted. In accordance with the above eC Regulation, it is mandatory to obtain, for each pet, a european Community Veterinary Certificate, issued, in the country of origin, by a certified veterinarian, containing information about the pet’s general state of health and proving there is an effective vaccination protection against rabies: animals under the age of three months may not travel to europe since the anti-rabies vaccine is not administered before the pet is three months old. In Italy, it is mandatory to use a muzzle for dogs that walk on the streets or any open space without a leash, and a muzzle and a leash for dogs in public places and public transportation.

Tax Refund According to the Italian law, based on the european Community provisions, a non-resident visitor may claim a refund for goods and services tax paid for goods intended for personal or familiar use purchased in Italy.
This is the reason why the Italian seller, as a precaution, normally prefers that the foreign traveller pays in advance the VAT included in the selling price, refunding it later. In fact in this case the VAT advanced will be refunded provided that the eU non-resident traveller returns to the Italian seller the original invoice regularly endorsed by the Customs office within four months from the end of that when such a document was issued.
HOW TO GET VAT REFUND OR RELIEF You can be granted VAT refund or relief provided that: the foreign buyer is a eU non - resident traveller; the goods are intended for personal or familiar use and are personally carried in the baggage; the overall value of goods exceeds 154,94 euro (VAT included); the purchase is certified by an invoice containing the description of goods, the personal data of the traveller as well as the particulars of his passport or of any such equivalent document; the goods leave the eU territory within three months after the end of that when the purchase was made; the goods go through some special customs formalities; the invoice is returned to the Italian seller within four months after the end of that when the purchase was made.
WHO CARRIES OUT VAT REFUND The refund is made directly by the Italian seller according to the terms agreed with the buyer when the goods were purchased (for example, by credit into a bank account, credit card, cheque, etc.). Alternatively, there are some TAX-FRee companies that can grant immediate VAT cash refund when the goods leave the Italian or Community territory, i.e. without the passenger to return the invoice to the seller: however you can use this procedure only at the most important airports or Customs borders. More often, TAX-FRee companies provide only a service on behalf of the Italian sellers (more and more sellers join these companies) assuring a faster VAT refund: In this case, the invoices issued by the Italian sellers have the logo of the TAXFRee company which they belong to with the address where the traveller must return the invoice regularly endorsed by the Customs of exit from the Community territory. In both cases, however, the services supplied by TAX-FRee companies imply the payment of a sum which is directly deducted from the amount of VAT refunded to the traveller. Should the foreign traveller have returned the invoice to the Italian seller or to the TAX-FRee companies authorized to the refund and, after a reasonable lapse of time, he does not get the refund, he shall contact again the Italian seller or the companies above, providing them with all the details contained in the invoice concerning the purchase of goods and the period when they were purchased in Italy. In any case, VAT cannot be refunded directly by Customs offices; therefore, whatever notification the financial administration may receive will imply exclusively a control of the Italian seller by the competent bodies.
CUSTOMS FORMALITIES TO BE CARRIED OUT The goods purchased and the relevant invoice must be shown at the Customs of exit from the eU territory. The Customs office, after having ascertained that all the requirements are met endorses the invoice. This endorsement is essential to prove that the goods have effectively left the Community territory. The competent Customs office where the invoice must be presented for the endorsement is the Customs of exit situated in the state where the eU non-resident traveller leaves the eU territory for his country of origin. If, for example, a eU nonresident traveller purchases goods in Italy and then goes to Austria, the competent Customs office where all the invoices must be presented for the endorsement is the Austrian Customs office. However, where the passenger holds a single ticket and carries out a single check-in being issued a double boarding card – one for the first domestic flight and another for the following final non-eU destination (i.e. bari-Rome-New York or Milan-Frankfurt-Tokyo) – he can get an endorsement on the invoice concerning the goods intended for personal or family use by the national customs office located at the departure airport. Note that the goods must be shown at the customs office: if the traveller intends to carry them by plane, he must go to the Customs office to declare them before checking in the baggage. Customs controls and the certification required to obtain VAT refund may require a long wait above all at the biggest airports or in concurrence with the departure of international flights going to certain third countries; therefore, in order to avoid unpleasant delays, the eU non-resident traveller shall be at the airport at least two hours before leaving time.
Goods purchased in Italy and directly carried in the personal baggage outside the territory of the EU: What to do if the goods are too bulky or too heavy Should the goods intended for personal or familiar use be so bulky or heavy as not to be able to be carried outside the Community Customs territory directly in the personal baggage (and also because it is too expensive), the eU non-resident traveller may have them shipped to his foreign address as not accompanied baggage, i.e. as “personal goods” which are not directly carried by the traveller but shipped to destination by airline. They can be collected at the oncoming goods section of the airport. The facility above can be applied provided that the traveller leaves the Italian territory with a direct flight to his country of origin. This operation is subject to a real air-freight agreement: The air carrier issues an airwaybill (AWb) and the payment of an additional sum is required for the transport of goods abroad. In this case, the purchase of goods must be certified by an invoice other than that concerning the goods checked in or personally carried by the traveller.
HOW TO RETURN THE INVOICE TO THE ITALIAN SELLER As to VAT relief, the traveller, after having left the Community territory, must return to the Italian seller the original invoice regularly endorsed by the Customs office, within four months after the end of that when such a document was issued, thus ending a procedure which has allowed him to benefit from the beginning of VAT exemption. Should the seller not receive in time such a documentation, he shall be hold responsible against the state for the payment of the overall amount of VAT initially deducted from the purchases of the eU non-resident traveller.

BOOKING@VISITITALYTOURS.IT
TAX REFUND The original copy of the invoice must be presented to the air carrier for the issue of the airwaybill (AWb) concerning the goods shipped as not accompanied baggage and will be endorsed by the competent Customs office. The Customs endorsement is essential for VAT refund purposes. In order to verify that the goods contained in the invoice issued by the Italian seller are the same as those shipped to destination by airline on behalf of the traveller, the description of the goods in the airwaybill must correspond to that of the invoice issued by the Italian seller and the name of the consignor of the goods shipped must match that of the receiver. besides, the personal details (reported in the passport or in any such equivalent document) of the foreign traveller in the airwaybill (AWb) must match those reported, according to the Italian law, in the invoice issued by the Italian seller. In order to tangibly get the VAT refund, the eU non-resident traveller must return the original copy of the invoice endorsed by the Customs, according to the terms above, to the Italian seller.
Tax Free Italy Stores If a store has a “euro Tax Free” sign on its window or door this means that the store participates in the “Tax Free Italy” program. When making a purchase at such a store, present your passport at the cash register and ask the store clerk to issue you a “Tax Free Shopping Cheque” together with a receipt for the goods. The store will charge you tax at the time of sale. However, the Tax Free Shopping Cheque will indicate the amount of VAT (IVA) refund that you are eligible to subsequently claim. Non-eU travellers can claim for the reimbursement either at the Italian customs office or at the last eU Customs before their final destination outside eeC. Keep the goods bought ready together with the appropriate bill of entry for inspection by the cuctoms officer(s). Customs normally inspect the relevant merchandise before stamping the Tax Refund Forms: (a) therefore, if the relevant goods are contained in your unaccompanied baggage to be checked-in for a non-european destination, you should get the Customs receipt/inspection before check-in; (b) If the relevant merchandise is contained in your accompanied baggage, it is also possible to get the Customs receipt after passport control, upon inspection of the relevant goods contained in your hand carried baggage. Then, you can obtain refund of the taxes of all the Tax Refund Forms stamped by Customs: (a) in cash, by addressing an eTS desk in the airport (beware to address the right one!); or (b) receiving by mail the tax equivalent amounts in Tax-free Shopping Cheques ; or (c) by transfers to your credit card account. A word to the wise about I.V.A. rebates: allow plenty of time at the airport to process your claim!
Goods purchased in Italy and directly shipped outside the territory of the EU by the Italian seller Sometimes, it is possible that the goods purchased in Italy are really too bulky to be personally carried by the eU non - resident traveller as “personal baggage”. It is also possible that the eU non-resident traveller leaves Italy for another eU member state. In this case he may ask the Italian seller to ship to his destination abroad the goods purchased in Italy. In practice, the Italian seller does not apply VAT on goods which are not delivered to the foreign client in Italy and ships them directly abroad, carrying out all the customs formalities concerning the exportation. In this case, the eU non-resident traveller shall not personally carry the goods purchased in Italy or show them to the Customs of exit from the Community territory to have the invoice endorsed; he shall not return, within the relevant time limits, the original copy of the invoice either; in fact, goods will be shipped, already TAX-FRee, directly to his house. It is clear however that the Italian seller is supplying in this case a real service to the foreign traveller, which can therefore imply the payment of an additional sum to the TAX-FRee selling price for the costs of transport or/and for the carrying out of the Customs formalities concerning the exportation of the goods purchased.

BOaT TOUR TO MURanO
Eng, Spa, FRE, gER
Murano island owes its fame entirely to the glass. It is in the little island, originally a fishermen settlement, that the art of making glass spread since the 13th century, when all glass factories moved from Venice to prevent danger of fire. Murano became so important to have a sort of self government, its own coins and its own aristocracy. At the glass Museum it is possible, following the history and the splendid collection of antiques pieces, to see how this island grew in importance, becoming during the 16th century the principal glass producer in europe. The masters will show how to create incredible masterpieces of art. Venice owns its wealth to the glass production and to other business activities, but has never forgotten to thank or to ask protection to god for its good luck. So, besides all glass shops in Murano, it is possible to visit San Donato Church, reachable by boat, a beautiful example of architectural styles mixed together: the byzantine exterior columns, the gothic ship’s keel roof and the mosaic portrait of the Virgin of the 12th century.

It is San giorgio Maggiore Church, one of the Palladian buildings in Venice, in San giorgio island. Also known in the ancient times as the “cypresses island”, it was first a settlement of a benedictine community. Far from the crowded St. Mark’s Square, the island offers a breathtaking sight from the top of the bell tower, the façade that Venice showed to her visitors coming from the sea. Then a little jewel of the lagoon, San Lazzaro degli Armeni, this island, dedicated to San Lazzaro, patron saint of the leprouses, was first a leper hospital. After a few centuries of decay, at the beginning of the 18th century, a community of Armenian monks, settled here. They turned the old buildings in a monastery so that the island became an incredible cultural centre, important for the collection of books and for the typography opened in 1789.

The life of Sait Francis is linked with three beautiful sites, nestled in the lovely countryside of Assisi: the Church of Saint Damiano, the Hermitage and the Porziuncola. In the tiny church of Saint Damiano, Saint Francis heard the call to conversion: “Francesco! go and repair my house because as you can see it is falling down!” (Legenda Maior). Few years later, the church and the attached building became the convent of the first poor claires. The Hermitage, the place where Saint Francis and his first followers retreated praying in solitude, is located at about 900 meters altitude, not far from the top of Mount Subasio. The Porziuncola is a tiny church hidden inside the basilica of Saint Mary of the Angels. This is where Saint Francis used to live with his very first followers. Here Francis received the forgiveness from Jesus “the Forgiveness of Assisi”. Here Francis died on the evening of 3 October 1226. Inclusions: Duration:

From Sorrento the road winds down to the town of Positano, a romantic and exclusive village clambering down a vertiginous slope to the sea. The structure of the town is very particular; its buildings cling, in tiers to the rock face. The small houses, all huddling on top of each other, so characteristic of Positano, develop an unique environment. Amalfi is the main town of the coast on which it is located, named Costiera Amalfitana, and it is today an important tourist destination together with other towns of the same coast, such as Positano, Ravello. Amalfi is included in the UNeSCO World Heritage Sites. Conca dei Marini was founded by the ancient Romans, around the year 500 bC, like many of the other towns on the Amalfi Coast. Conca’s Latin name means “basin of the Seas”, this is surely because of the way its coastline contours along the Mediterranean sea, creating enchanting small fiords, and gulfs Inclusions: Duration: Note: Pick up Sorrento / Naples Positano Amalfi

Not far from Amalfi, there’s Ravello, town that has been historically a destination for artists, musicians, and writers, including Richard Wagner who composed here some operas. Ravello is also famous for its villas, such as Villa Cimbrone, dating from at least the 11th century AD (The villa is now a hotel, and the gardens are open to the public) and Villa Rufolo unique in terms of architectural and decorative, which has never failed to inspire surprise and amazement of those travelers who for various reasons have gone here over the centuries. La Trinità della Cava is a benedictine Abbey. It was founded in 1011 by Alferio Pappacarbon, a noble of Salerno who became a Cluniac monk and had lived as a hermit in the vicinity since 1011. Pope Urban II endowed this monastery with many privileges, making it immediately subject to the Holy See, with jurisdiction over the surrounding territory.

The Royal Palace of Caserta is a royal residence in Caserta whose construction was begun in 1752 for the bourbon kings of Naples. It was the largest palace and one of the largest buildings erected in europe during the eighteenth century. In 1997, the Palace was designated a UNeSCO World Heritage Site, described in its nomination as the swan song of the spectacular art of the baroque, from which it adopted all the features needed to create the illusions of multidirectional space. The garden is a typical example of the baroque extension of formal vistas, stretch for 120 ha. It is inspired by the park of Versailles, but it is commonly regarded as superior in beauty.

How long the villa kept this role is not known, maybe for less than 150 years. The complex remained inhabited and a village grew around it, named Platia (derived from the word palatium (palace). The villa was damaged and perhaps destroyed during the domination of the Vandals and the Visigoths. The outbuildings remained in use, at least in part, during the byzantine and Arab periods. The site was abandoned in the 12th century AD when a landslide covered the villa. Survivors moved to the current location of Piazza Armerina.

In 1693 a devastating earthquake caused almost total destruction of the entire city, claiming more than five victims. The reconstruction, which took place in the eighteenth century, divided into two broad areas: on one side than Dubrovnik, located on the plateau, on the other Ragusa, built and rebuilt from the ruins of ancient cities in the ancient medieval structure. The architectural masterpieces built after the earthquake, together with all those present in the Val di Noto, have been declared World Heritage by UNeSCO. Dubrovnik is one of the most important ever for the presence of valuable evidence of baroque art Some sources report that during the Spanish domination of Sicily in the sixteenth century this process was introduced in the County of Modica, at that time the most important feudal state of southern Italy, with administrative autonomy. The Spaniards, in turn, would have borrowed from the Aztecs. Currently there are no more traces of this type of work either in Spain or in America, while only L. Sciascia recalls how this process would remain in his time also in the city of Alicante, an indication that there were originally the only two versions with the addition of vanilla and cinnamon.

The arrival of groups of Jews to Syracuse is difficult to date, since there is very little direct evidence since they lack paper documents and inscriptions, and only in recent years have found artifacts that crack open some more. Much of the history of Syracuse lacks the necessary supports to be able to describe in detail since natural disasters, invasions and neglect have also deleted the archives, collections and exhibits. As for the Jews we have a more difficult because, after the expulsion of 1492, were erased the traces of their stay more than a thousand years, almost fiercely, especially by the religious and the Holy Inquisition.

The Muslim conquest of Sicily and parts of southern Italy lasted 75 years. According to some sources, the conquest was spurred by euphemius, the byzantine commander who feared punishment by emperor Michael II for a sexual indiscretion. After a shortlived conquest of Syracuse, he was proclaimed emperor but was compelled by loyal forces to flee to Africa to the court of Ziyadat Allah. The latter agreed to conquer Sicily, with the promise to leave it to euphemius in exchange for a yearly tribute, and entrusted its conquest to the 70 year old qadi Asad ibn al-Furat. The Muslim force counted 10,000 infantry, 700 cavalry and 100 ships reinforced by euphemius’s ships and, after the landing at Mazara del Vallo, knights. The first battle against byzantine troops occurred on July 15, 827, near Mazara, resulting in an Aghlabid victory. We will visit two specific monuments in the “Arabic” Palermo: The Zisa Castle as well as the Qanat We’re talking about an exceptional piece of underground “hydraulic engineering”, generically called “Qanat” in various regions of the planet, especially Asian and Mediterranean, where it developed in a more extended, allowed to intercept the water table, take the ‘water and transport it to distant areas of use for irrigation and drinking, without concern of evaporation and thus promoting agricultural cultivation in an environment almost prohibitive for the temperature and solar radiation The construction was begun in the 12th century by Arabian craftsmen for king William I of Sicily, and completed by his son William II. The edifice had been conceived as summer residence for the Norman kings, as a part of the large hunting resort known as genoard (“Paradise on earth”) that included also the Cuba Sottana, the Cuba Soprana and the Uscibene palace. The Zisa is clearly inspired by Moorish architecture. The name Zisa itself derives from the Arab term al-Azîz, meaning “noble”, “glorious”, “magnificent”. The same word, in Naskh script, is impressed in the entrance, according to the usual habit for the main Islamic edifices of the time. Inclusions: Duration: Meeting point At hotel

The tower on the south side of the palace is one of the few remaining parts of the old city wall. It dates back to the 12th century and is Arabic-Norman origin. Above the double-arched Norman windows can be seen the coat of arms of the imperial family of the Hohenstaufen, of the kingdom of Aragonia and the city of Palermo. In the course of the centuries Count Federico’s palace has undergone several reconstructions. because of this you can observe various architectural styles: High painted ceilings from the 14th century, baroque ceiling frescoes by Vito D’Anna and gaspare Serenario, various sculptures and Marabitti’s lion fountain from the 17th century as well as the grand stairway with the interior walls done by Marvuglia. In the numerous halls valuable antiques and paintings can be admired. Of special notice is the weapon collection in the knights’ hall.

THE VillaS in BagHERia
Since its founding, the town has gone by the names of bayharia, baharia, and baarìa. In 1658 giuseppe branciforti, Prince of butera and former Viceroy of Sicily, built a large villa and established the region as the preferred location for villeggiatura by Palermitan elite. Villas like the fortified Villa San Marco (designed by Andrea Cirrincione) with angled bastions and a drawbridge soon followed. The area experienced a boom in villa building roughly coinciding with the period of Savoyard (1713–21) and Habsburg (1721– 30) rule and continuing for several decades thereafter. The two most striking baroque residences, Villa Valguarnera and Villa Palagonia were designed by the architect Tommaso Maria Napoli in 1712 and 1715 respectively. both were completed only decades later. Napoli had been influenced by his experiences in Rome and Vienna and this is reflected in his designs. Other architects and clients like the giuseppe Mariani and the Prince of Aragona also looked to prints of Roman exemplars when constructing the Villa Aragona (now Cutò) in 1714. by 1763 tastes were changing. The Villa Villarosa, supervised by the young g.V. Marvuglia, was directly modelled on more neoclassical plans published by Jean-François Neufforge in 1760. In 1769 one of the descendants of the original Prince of butera redesigned his estate into a well planned town, allowing him to collect rents from the inhabitants. bagheria was a preferred stopping point for europeans pursuing the grand Tour in Sicily including Patrick brydone, goethe, John Soane, K. F. Schinkel and many others. We will visit one of the most famous villas in bagheria, Villa Palagonia as well as Villa Cattolica: museum which keeps some of the most important paints of Renato guttuso. The Villa Palagonia is a patrician villa in bagheria, 15 km from Palermo, in Sicily, southern Italy. The villa itself, built from 1715 by the architect Tommaso Napoli with the help of Agatino Daidone, is one of the earliest examples of Sicilian baroque. However, its popularity comes mainly from the statues of monsters with human faces that decorate its garden and its wall, and earned it the nickname of “The Villa of Monsters” (Villa dei Mostri ). This series of grotesques, created from 1749 by Francesco Ferdinando II gravina, Prince of Palagonia, aroused the curiosity of the travellers of the grand Tour during the 18th and 19th centuries, for instance Henry Swinburne, Patrick brydone, John Soane, goethe, the Count de borde, the artist Jean-Pierre Houël or Alexandre Dumas, prior to fascinate surrealists like André breton or contemporary authors such as giovanni Macchia and Dominique Fernandez, or the painter Renato guttuso.

Ancient Akragas covers a huge area — much of which is still unexcavated today — but is exemplified by the famous Valle dei Templi (“Valley of the Temples”, a misnomer, as it is a ridge, rather than a valley). This comprises a large sacred area on the south side of the ancient city where seven monumental greek temples in the Doric style were constructed during the 6th and 5th centuries bC. Now excavated and partially restored, they constitute some of the largest and best-preserved ancient greek buildings outside of greece itself. They are listed as a World Heritage Site. The best-preserved of the temples are two very similar buildings traditionally attributed to the goddesses Juno Lacinia and Concordia (though archaeologists believe this attribution to be incorrect). The latter temple is remarkably intact, due to its having been converted into a Christian church in 597 AD. both were constructed to a peripteral hexastyle design. The area around the Temple of Concordia was later re-used by early Christians as a catacomb, with tombs hewn out of the rocky cliffs and outcrops. We will first visit the Valley of the Temples and then experience a special pic-nic in the Kolymbetra gardens (located in the Valley itself). Due to its good state of preservation, the Temple of Concordia is ranked amongst the most notable edifices of the greek civilization existing today. It has a peristatis of 6 x 13 columns built over a basement of 39.44 x 16.91 m; each Doric column has twenty grooves and a slight entasis, and is surmounted by an architratave with triglyphs and metopes; also perfectly preserved are the tympani. The cella, preceded by a pronaos, is accessed by a single step; also existing are the pylons with the stairs which allowed to reach the roof and, over the cella’s walls and in the blocks of the peristasis’ entablature, the holes for the wooden beam of the ceiling. The exterior and the interior of the temples were covered by polychrome stucco. The upper frame had gutters with lion-like protomes, while the roof was covered by marble tiles. When the temple was turned into a church the entrance was moved to the rear, and the rear wall of the cella had to be destroyed. The spaces between the columns were closed, while 12 arched openings were created in the cella, in order to obtain a structure with one nave and two aisles. The pagan altar was destroyed and sacristies were carved out in the eastern corners. The sepultures visible inside and outside the temple date to the High Middle Age. enjoy a special pic-nic surrounded by the unique atmosphere of the Valley of the Temples.

We will travel first to the Tenuta Pignatelli where we will learn the process from olives to olive oil. After, we will enjoy lunch at Tenuta Pignatelli. In the afternoon enjoy the visit to the archaeological area in Selinunte nefore to travel back to Palermo. gianfranco becchina was born and raised in Castelvetrano, a small agricultural city in southwestern Sicily in the province of Trapani near the extensive ruins of the ancient greek colony of Selinunte. He made a name for himself as a collector and international dealer of greek, Roman and etruscan artwork and antiques in Switzerland. In 1989, tired of a life of constant travel and fueled by the idea of producing olive oil the way he knew it should and could taste, he returned to Castelvetrano and launched Olio Verde. It is produced at Tenuta Pignatelli (Antica Tenuta dei Principi Pignatelli) which is located in the heart of the Valle del belice (the valley of what was once the belice river) where the Nocellara del belice olive, native to that part of Sicily, is grown and enjoyed both as an excellent table olive and also pressed into a deep green and aromatic extra virgin olive oil with piquant qualities. Today, Olio Verde is synonymous with excellent extra virgin olive oil and is world renowned for its unique freshness. It was the first extra virgin olive oil to be available at both restaurant and retail levels that was cloudy green, lusciously fluid on the palate and had a true olive taste at a time when most others were heavy, yellow, buttery and clear. becchina was also the first to press and bottle an oil made exclusively from the Nocellara del belice olives, which were considered too precious for making oil at the time and reserved only for the cured olive market. every step in the olive oil making process from growing and harvesting the olives to pressing and storing the oil is overseen by the becchina family and carried out on their family estate, Tenuta Pignatelli, and at the related historic castle, Palazzo Pignatelli a.k.a. bellumvider, both located in Castelvetrano. Selinunte was one of the most important of the greek colonies in Sicily, situated on the southwest coast of that island, at the mouth of the small river of the same name, and 6.5 km west of that of the Hypsas (the modern belice River). It was founded, according to historian Thucydides, by a colony from the Sicilian city of Megara, or Megara Hyblaea, under the conduct of a leader named Pammilus, about 100 years after the settlement of that city, with the addition of a fresh body of colonists from the parent city of Megara in greece Inclusions: Duration: Meeting point At hotel

Then, it will be time for us to have lunch in a nice restaurant just in front of the salt-mills in Trapani area and viewing also the egadi islands as well as the hill of erice. Marsala occupies the site of Lilybaeum, the principal stronghold of the Carthaginians in Sicily, founded by Himilco in 396 bC after the abandonment of Motya. Neither Pyrrhus nor the Romans were able to reduce it by siege, but it was surrendered to the latter in 241 bC at the end of the First Punic War as a condition of the peace treaty. In the later wars it was a starting point for the Roman expeditions against Carthage, and under Roman rule it enjoyed considerable prosperity. It obtained municipal rights from Augustus and became a colony under either Pertinax or Septimius Severus. The Arabs gave it its present name “Marsala,” which is derived from the Arab “Marsa Allah” (port of Allah) or “Marsa Ali” (“port of Ali”, intended also as “great port”, as Ali in Arabian language is synonymous with “great”). The huge ancient harbor that lay on the northeast was destroyed by Charles V in the 16th century, to prevent its occupation by pirates. The modern harbor lies to the southeast. On May 11, 1860, giuseppe garibaldi and his expedition of the Thousand landed at Marsala and began his campaign to overthrow bourbon rule in Sicily, during the Unification of Italy process.

Depart to Trapani and embark on a ferry boat to Marettimo , one of the egadi islands where it seems time is blocked. enjoy a small panoramic visit of the village. We will then go by foot to the La Scaletta restaurant where Jamie Oliver decided to cook some special dishes elaborating the Sicilian cuisine. enjoy lunch at restaurant and back to Palermo. Island of Marettimo. Jamie Oliver in his book says: If there’s one thing I learned from you about the Italian fish is definitely that “less is more”, in other words, the simpler the better. I was very surprised to see that you have many seafood restaurants do not have a real menu, just like the ladder, the restaurant on the island of Marettimo managed by my friend John. He literally waits until eight or nine in the morning, when the boats fall, and then says: ‘Today I will cook whatever god!’. It is clear that, unless you have a choice of an exaggeration, you have to get smart and use the best there is. In the days crooked, when you do not get even a little ‘fresh fish, John resorts to its stock of preserved fish, jealously kept in the pantry. Inclusions: Duration: Meeting point At hotel

THE gODFaTHER TOUR: SaVOCa, FORZa D’agRò – MaFia TOUR WiTH gRaniTa TaSTing
A scenic drive runs inland to Savoca which is considered one of the most attractive places in the environ of Taormina. bar Vitelli with a gorgeous terrace, has a collection of photographs taken when Francis Ford Coppola shot some scenes of “The godfather II”. Free time for a “granita” in the bar Vitelli then we walk to the Chiesa Madre with its fine 16C portal surmonted by a beautifully carved oculus and the coat of arms of Savoca, bearing the eldeberry branch from which the name of the town is supposed to derive. We will there enjoy a granita tasting at the local famous bar Vitelli. The tour will continue to Forza d’Agrò an attractive medieval hamlet caps the furthermost spurs of the Monti Peloritani with a splendid view of the coast. In 1990, Al Pacino and Sophia Coppola shot some scenes of the film “The godfather III In recent years this town has seen a great deal of building - apartment blocks, hotels, luxury homes - hardly surprising when you take into account the views and the proximity to Taormina. but if you walk on uphill, you will discover that the ancient hill-top town is still as it has been since the middle ages - a warren of narrow streets and tiny houses leading up to the ruined castle. The town found brief fame in godfather II - after the assassination of his brother (in the the opening scene in the film shot in the dry riverbed below the town), his only surviving male relative young Vito Corleone cowers in the dark near the church below, as his pursuers shout out his name. Michael Corleone visits his father’s “birthplace” with his daughter in godfather III. The fictional Corleone is a composite of Forza d’ Agrò and nearby Savoca. The real Corleone can also be on our itinerary - it bears no resemblance to this peaceful town in the sky with its panoramic views over the Mediterranean sea. Locations around New York City and its environs were used for the film, including the then-closed flagship store of best & Company on Fifth Avenue, which was dressed up and used for the scene in which Pacino and Keaton are Christmas shopping. At least one location in Los Angeles was used also (for the exterior of Woltz’s mansion), for which neither Robert Duvall nor John Marley were available; in some shots, it is possible to see that extras are standing in for the two actors. A scene with Pacino and Keaton was filmed in the town of Ross, California. The Sicilian towns of Savoca and Forza d’Agrò outside of Taormina were also used for exterior locations. Interiors were shot at Filmways Studio in New York Inclusions: Duration:
