Excursion:

Departure from Agrigento Area for the nearby village Sant’Angelo Muxaro for a cooking class in a typical private country house to learn how to prepare Sicilian bread and pizza (sfincione) with traditional ingredients like pecorino cheese, olive oil and sardines. Lunch with pizza and hot bread with olive oil and oregano!

In the afternoon an archaeological walk with our local Tour Guide through the countryside and its magnificent nature, to visit the largest and oldest Tholos Tomb in Sicily (300 B.C.). This whole area is connected with the myth of Dedalus and Icarus and the Minotaur labyrinth.

Our guide will then take us to a bakery to taste biscuits and home made cookies; then we will visit a shepard’s house to taste soft pecorino cheese and ricotta cheese, still warm. This walking itinerary really takes us far from the classic tourist routes.
