Guided tours: between botany, ecology and history
We offer visits lasting approximately two hours led by the owner and creator of the Gardens, Donna Vittoria Alliata dei Principi di Villafranca. During the journey, the owner will present the history of the botanical project which is also a history of the territory, of an ancient family and a personal story. After the visit, light refreshments will be offered (water and fruit juice, tea and coffee, biscuits).
Minimum 4 and max 12 people. 15 EUR per person.
Children under 5 are free.
PRICE PER PERSON: 45€

Picnic-chic
For those who love nature and want to extend their visit to the Gardens to immerse themselves in the trees and flowers, get lost in the meanders of herbs and stroll among ancient terraces with orange, olive, almond, oak, rose and much more.
We offer small groups entry into the Victoria Gardens for tours in the internal areas that will be exceptionally open to the public, including access to the beautiful bio-lake. The lake (bio lake) is located on a hill 400 m from the house in a small "golden basin" reminiscent of Palermo in memory of the origins of the owner, full of orange, oak and olive trees. The pond, a work much desired by the owner, is a unique reality in Sicily. It was built in September 2022 and filled with water from the Alcantara river: the clarity of the water is maintained with a biological filtering system with gravels and with the help of marsh and aquatic plants; furthermore “good” bacterial colonies proliferate among the grains of gravel which feed on organic substances and help purify the water. It is a low energy consumption system and totally free of chemical disinfectant (chlorine or other).
PRICE PER PERSON: 65€

Aperitif in the countryside
We are pleased to announce that the Victoria Gardens are open upon request to small groups wishing to enjoy an aperitif in the countryside. The tasting, accompanied by delicious appetizers, will take place either on the terrace among the olive trees and flowers or, for the more adventurous, near the splendid lake. The terrace is a charming place with easy access, while the lake is located on a hill 400 m from the house in a small "golden basin" reminiscent of Palermo in memory of the origins of the owner, surrounded by orange, oak and olive trees.

General notes
Victoria Gardens aspires to become a plastic-free and clean environment.
Without plastic it means that we are forced to tolerate what is indispensable for maintaining the Park (for example irrigation pipes) but we want to contribute to the fight against plastic and microplastic pollution. A clean environment also means without waste. We deeply believe in the principles of responsible waste management: three times R, one R for Reducing waste production, the second R for Reusing products and therefore reducing waste, and the third R for Recycling waste. You will not find baskets for placing leftovers, we ask you not to bring and throw away plastic, not to throw away cigarette butts (which are highly polluting) and to take away the waste you produce with you. Each of us must contribute to keeping the environment beautiful and clean.
