"On the footsteps of the great writers": in the heart of Sicily
This travel itinerary follows the native places of the great Sicilian writers, where they lived and where they set their stories.
​
Around Agrigento within a few kilometers you can walk around and step on the same ground on which Sciascia, Pirandello, Tomasi di Lampedusa, Camilleri walked by.... it's from here that the "Road of the writers" extends, by an intuition of the journalist Felice Cavallaro 2013.
​
In order to experience and enjoy Sicily in a more intense way, the journey also includes an integrated course with local food traditions and natural beauty of the landscape; it also provides a direct experience through educational workshops on archeology related to the daily life of the ancient world.
