Unique Local Food & Wine Experiences
At Ormina Tours we have long promoted the idea of celebrating life through travel. We want to offer our clients exclusive, unique and local experiences that bring a level of authenticity to your cultural discovery.
These experiences start at a ground level with our fantastic guides and drivers who are local experts; always friendly and welcoming, and able to give you the best information and tips on how to spend your time.
We also encourage our guests to involve themselves in local experiences that will give them a true sense of being a part of the community. This may include a cooking class in a local’s home (read more on our blog here), wine tastings with vineyard owners and their families, and more.
In order to continue bringing you the best of these unique experiences we have teamed up with The Grand Wine Tour (TGWT). This partnership will enable us to bring you even more experiences at some of the best wineries across Italy – 22 to be exact!
