    Begin your day with a guided walk through the historic center of Corleone. Hear the true stories behind the town’s Mafia and anti-Mafia history, while discovering the people and events that shaped its past. Along the way, meet locals and discover everyday life in Corleone, with stops to experience its local food traditions and meet people from the community. Then enter the home of Gino and Enza for a warm, authentic Sicilian experience. Join them in the kitchen to prepare traditional dishes using local ingredients, share stories, and learn about family traditions. Finally, sit around the table with your hosts and enjoy a homemade Sicilian lunch together. More than a history tour or cooking class, this is a chance to experience the real Corleone through its people, stories, food, and hospitality.
