In the hinterland of Agrigento, some 20 kilometres from the seaside town of Sciacca, lies one of the most beautiful villages in Italy: Sambuca di Sicilia.  The village, of Arab origins, was founded as far back as 830 A.D. but still retains traces of its Islamic matrix. Walking through its streets will be like going back in time.

Sambuca is a true corner of paradise to be experienced at a slow pace, discovering step by step the history and traditions of a place that enchants all its visitors. The streets of the historic centre are full of restaurants and places where you can taste the specialities of Sicilian cuisine, and there are just as many places of interest linked to its past.
