Itinerary

1° day

Arrival in Corleone

We recommend arriving in Corleone by the afternoon so that, after checking in at your accommodation, you can enjoy the relaxed atmosphere at the Tenute Pollara countryside relais, attached to the Principe di Corleone wine cellar.

Dinner at leisure and overnight stay.

2° day

Wine tasting

In the morning, we will take a walk through the estate’s vineyards and visit the winery, accompanied by Pietro—or another member of the family that has been tending the vines for four generations. Afterwards, a sommelier will guide us step by step through a wine-tasting experience, paired with samples of typical local products.

Free afternoon and dinner, overnight stay.

3° day

Corleone sorprendente - Departure

Breakfast and check-out.

In the morning, a local activist will be waiting for us in the centre of Corleone, ready to share a lesser-known side of the town—shaped by a past of peasant struggles and resistance to the mafia, and by a present in which anti-mafia renewal blends with the hard work of its citizens.

We recommend leaving in the afternoon, so you can still make the most of your time to explore the town on your own: along the narrow streets and in the squares you’ll find churches and historic buildings, fountains, and murals.

Departure and end of our services.
