Sept 2023 Trip

In September 2023, our first voyage took us to incredible heights. We thank all those who joined us on this journey and trusted us to create unforgettable memories. From our villa in Fontane Bianche, we explored the treasures of Sicily: Siracusa, Avola, Marzamemi, Taormina, Palermo, Noto, Ragusa, and Modica all revealed their unique beauty. We indulged in Sicilian cuisine, made arancine together, swam in the Ionian sea and cherished every moment. As our voyage came to an end, we are grateful for the privilege of sharing this adventure with all of you.
