Cooking at the Farm

A day trip in the Sicilian countryside for a cooking experience at a chef’s country home.

One hour southwest of Palermo is the countryside town of Camporeale. For a small town of under 4,000 inhabitants, the fertile landscape is home to numerous farms and vineyards.

Guests arrive at the country home of a local chef for a hands-on cooking lesson. 

Guests are welcomed with a coffee or aperitivo to get the class started. The menu is created with local ingredients, seasonal vegetables, fresh meat, fish, and cheeses.

Casual and fun cooking classes are taught in English with a knowledgeable local chef who will make guests feel welcome like they would in their home kitchen.

The cooking lesson ends with a full meal created together, paired with Sicilian wine.

    We reached out to Casa Mia Tours at the last minute the morning our ship docked in Sicily. We knew it was a last minute request but took a shot anyway. Within a few hours they arranged a Sicilian cooking lesson and dinner for us. We had such a wonderful experience.
