DAILY PROGRAM
ROTTA SICANA
(8 days, 7 nights)
Your holiday can now begin! We will gather in the evening for our first meal together in Palermo, where we will have the opportunity to get to know each other and let the enchantment of Sicily’s capital work its magic on us.
Please plan to arrive individually by 7:00 p.m. for a warm welcome and a delicious dinner.
Let’s get started! We will head straight to the countryside in Prizzi to meet the horses. After a tour of the farm, a mouthwatering lunch will be waiting for you. Following that, you will have your first ride, giving you the opportunity to get acquainted with your horse. The day will conclude with a delectable Sicilian dinner, ensuring a perfect end to an exciting day.
As the birds chirp and you stretch in bed, a strong Italian coffee awaits you to energize you for the day’s ride. We will venture through picturesque hilly landscapes, offering breathtaking views along the way, until we reach our designated picnic area. After indulging in a delicious meal, we will take some time to stretch and rejuvenate our bodies with a yoga session. In the afternoon, we will embark on a different route back, allowing us to explore new scenery and enjoy another memorable ride.
Rise and shine! It’s time to roll out of bed and onto the yoga mat. We will gather outside, next to the paddock, to greet the sun and start our day with a rejuvenating yoga session. Afterward, we can look forward to a delightful brunch, lovingly prepared just for us. Once we have fueled up, we will embark on a half-day ride, exploring the beautiful surroundings. After a well-deserved siesta, we will make our way to Prizzi, a charming Sicilian village that looks like it came straight out of a picture book. Get ready to immerse yourself in its enchanting atmosphere and discover its hidden gems.
On our final day of riding, we will once again venture out to explore the breathtaking surroundings of the Azienda. As we saddle up and set off, the anticipation of what lies ahead fills the air. Our midday yoga session will provide a much-needed respite for our tired muscles.
With our bodies rejuvenated and minds at ease, we will have the opportunity to leisurely ride through the azienda in the evening. The serene atmosphere and stunning landscapes will create a truly magical experience that will stay with us long after we leave.
As we reflect on our time in Sicily, we may find ourselves echoing the sentiments of Goethe, who famously said after his own journey to Italy, “The fact that I have seen Sicily is an indestructible treasure for my entire life.”
Nothing gold can stay. Today, we go back to Palermo. But before that, we will enjoy a final yoga session in the open air and indulge in a delicious breakfast. The bus leaves at 10:30am, so you will be at the airport around 12:15pm.
