About us

Hello! :)

Thanks for surfing in our Blog!

I'm Giovanni the owner of B&B Belveliero - Granveliero in Trapani old town. After my degree and specialisation in Sustainable Tourism (in 2005) and working experience in Italy and London focusing on "back roads touring" I came back to my Trapani with voluntee to promote my unknown Sicily.

So at first I was a free lance for travel agencies/tour operator arranging unusual tours focusing on  gastronomy and culture. So for each group I arranged tasting of Sicilian food in authentic location as "baglio", lunch inside of primitive cave, meeting with fishermen preparing nets or fishing with them, local women who prepare ancient sicilian needlework (ricami), meeting with craftmen of marble or preparation of cheese in a farm.

Then in 2010 I started working as host of bed and breakfast Belveliero where I could suggest day by day unusual tours and services for my guests.  In 2014 thanks to help of my family I bought a building where from this year, 2015 I will start promoting a new idea of accommodation.
So the new one, B&B Granveliero, will be an accommodation where combining overnight stay and workshops event following the "edu-tainment" philosophy (educate and entertain). So Granveliero, the workshop accommodation where our guests can be "educated" to Sicily culture and be "entertained" with unusual workshops meeting "indigenous" people in our terrace at afternoon/evening.

In this blog we will show you Sicily - Trapani, Slowly & Food and if you would like, you can enjoy yourself staying with us.
Thanks again for reading us :)
