Calabria and Sicily

Let’s be honest….do you know where Calabria, Italy is located? There are many reasons that most of us will answer “no”. Adagio intends to put Calabria on your map. And we’ll be doing that in the company of women only in fall 2027.

The short answer: Calabria is one of Italy’s 20 regions; the country looks like a boot and Calabria is its toe. This region’s stunning coastlines stretch between the Tyrrhenian and Ionian Seas in Italy’s southernmost reaches.

Calabria is stunning sea; deep history; generosity; and a languorous lifestyle that we’ll fully embrace in the course of our ten days together.  Come with us to Calabria. Embrace surprise.

The allure of Sicily lies in its contrasts. Palermo, cradle of the Mediterranean and “a city of extremes, a mixture of panache and poverty.” Along our west to east route we visit Agrigento’s magical Greek temples; top wineries; meals that are tantalizing cultural mosaics. Majestic Mt. Etna and its surrounding cities, once the center of Magna Graecia, mark the end of our 10-day adventure.

The Aeolian Islands are a volcanic archipelago located off the coast of northeastern Sicily. Said to be named after Aeolus, the mythical ruler of the winds, the dreamy Aeolian islands are one of southern Italy’s greatest natural and cultural treasures. The group includes seven islands – each one with its own identity. We’ll travel around a few of the most beautiful by catamaran, and spend two nights on Salina. The verdant valleys and charming towns of Salina have earned it the reputation of being the prettiest of the Aeolians. We’ll enjoy some of its local products, like freshly grown capers and Malvasia dessert wine, complete with a delicious saline note.
