This was a trip of a lifetime! Fantastic experience! Words can’t express how wonderful ❤️
By Kenneth A for Acute Inflections: A Jazzy Adventure in Sicily 2025 on Jun 15, 2025
We recently returned from an exceptional custom hiking and cultural tour of southeastern Sicily, with Ragusa serving as our home base. Our small group of five travelers enjoyed a well-planned and expertly executed itinerary, led by an outstanding hiking guide.
The weather cooperated beautifully for most of our trip, with only one rainy day somewhat interrupting our outdoor activities. While the majority of our hikes were classified as "easy," we did encounter one moderate trail that presented a challenge due to slippery terrain.
Our journey was enriched by a diverse array of cultural experiences. Highlights included a visit to a chocolate factory, a hands-on cooking lesson at a local farm, and an enlightening tour of an agriturismo. The itinerary struck a perfect balance between group dinners and free time, allowing us to explore on our own.
As we visited during the off-season, we encountered few tourists, which lent a peaceful atmosphere to our explorations. However, this timing also meant that some restaurants were closed for the season.
Overall, this trip comes highly recommended for those seeking a blend of outdoor adventure and cultural immersion in a less-traveled part of Sicily.

This was an absolutely fabulous trip from start to finish. Allison Scola organized everything flawlessly. We stayed in beautiful hotels where our luggage was delivered to our door. The organized meals were delicious. We had a cooking class at one meal and learned a Sicilian dance at another meal accompanied by a great trio of musicians. Our daytime hours were filled with interesting excursions led by passionate as well as erudite guides. We had an elegant wine tasting at a restored winery. Our trip to Mt. Etna was exciting in off road vehicles and the visit to a shepherd’s farm with home cooked meal charmed everyone. Allison works with the best to give her group an unequaled Sicilian experience.

Pierfilippo and his team in Sant’ Angelo Muxaro in Agrigento , Sicily are amazing and I highly recommend him. Pierfilippo is top class and such a lovely person. His natural Sicilian warmth and humor, his deep knowledge of Sicilian, Italian and World history, his expert knowledge on culture and his vision for his region and country make him a delight to be with. He is the perfect contact if you are looking for a cultural experience in Sicily.
The connection came from Angelo Marchica in Palermo who originally comes from Sant’ Angelo Muxaro. Angelo leads the company Streaty - Street food tour of Palermo. This we have done twice with my family. In 2018 we did tours in Palermon with Streaty. It was amazing, such fun and we did it again in 2022! Thank you Angelo!
Pierfilippo organized for me a tailor-made “Sicilian programme”. This included pick up at the airport of Palermo Falcone Borsellino with Giuseppe, a dedicated and qualified teacher of Italian (and some Sicilian) with Rorita, work on an olive farm to help with the harvest with Paolo, visits of major UNESCO heritage centers and other cultural buildings as well as dinners and lunches with lovely local people (Lisa, Alfonso, Francesco, Caterina, Maria, Gloria.....from Sant’ Angelo Muxaro and the region. Yoga lessons with Ailin. There were so many delightful highlights and beautiful memories. Sant’ Angelo Muxaro in Agrigento, Sicily is a lovely village full of history going back + 3,000 years. It is part of our European heritage and I am so lucky to have learnt something special there.
Pierfilippo also organizes groups who wish to do their own tailor-made programs. There were groups from the USA there as well as from Italy and other European and Asian countries.
I feel so very grateful to Pierfilippo and to all the wonderful Sicilians I met there who educated me, who taught me, who were so patient with me. I was quite sad to have left the Sant’ Angelo Muxaro in Agrigento but I do know, I will come back again…with friends and or on my own. Possa Dio proteggere miei amici in Sicilia in Sant’ Angelo Muxaro.
