Cognoscenti Travel
Cognoscenti: ‘People with superior, usually specialised, knowledge or highly refined taste; connoisseurs.’
Sicily is built on layers of cultural heritage. There’s so much detail, some traditions risk being neglected or ignored. We design experiences that celebrate local traditions and directly involve communities. Our aim is to help preserve this vibrant and complex culture.
Cognoscenti Travel is dedicated and committed to the preservation of Sicily’s unique culture, architecture, nature and cuisine. We respect local interests and needs. Every experience we offer helps maintain diversity for future generations of curious travellers.
Our partners and projects are selected to enable money to be recycled back into conservation. We help small boutique vineyards, reintroduce forgotten landscapes and support rural museums.
Cognoscenti Travel specialises in bespoke, luxury and ‘off the beaten track’ holiday experiences in Sicily. All our itineraries are carefully created to introduce aspects of the Island known only to locals and experts. Please get in touch with founder and director Alberto to see how he can deliver a fully tailored, one-off adventure of a life-time.
Cognoscenti Travel are Sicily specialists.
This intense island is a place where cultures collide and nature’s energy is intensified. Volcanic landscapes, crystal coastlines and islands sit alongside classical temples, Baroque towns and glittering mosaics.
