At Villa Aranjaya guests have the opportunity to get closer to the farm-philosophy by experiencing its daily activities. Join us, as we press olives, prune roses, harvest citrus fruits or pick fresh tomatoes off the vine; all educational and fun ways to experience sicilian tradition. Rudolf, the owner of the Estate, is happy to "open doors" into the most wonderful private historic palaces of Sicily for very exclusive "drinks" or an elegant private dinner-parties. On special occasions and on request we can also put an extra staff-member on site fulltime to cater to the needs of our quests, available by phone and in person, from the day of arrival to the day you check out.
