About Sicily

Sicily is the largest Mediterranean island. It is a cultural hotpot with influences from Spain, North Africa, Greece and Italy. The Roman ruins are on equal to those found in Italy. Like France and Italy, Sicily is a paradise for food and wine lovers.

A large part of Sicily is covered in vineyards and many are open to the public. Sicilian wines have a reputation for being full bodied and are excellent with cheeses, such as Nero d'Avola. Sweet wines are also in abundance. Again these can be quite high in alcohol, so do appoint a driver who does not drink!

Skiing in Sicily

-Ski on a volcano! From December until March, you can ski on Mount Etna. We suggest you check with the locals first, to ensure any red runs are not lava runs!

Palermo

Drive from Palermo Airport, or go by train to Erice, a hilltop town with great views and a charming old town centre. However, bring some warm clothing as it can get chilly. Also, you take your hire car on the ferry to the island of Messina, which is located about145 miles east of Palermo.

Catania

No trip to Sicily is complete without visiting Catania. Fly into Catania Airport and after checking into your hotel, head off to see Catania's imposing, unpredictable neighbour, the volcano of Mount Etna. Whilst in Catania, visit San Agata Alla Fornace, which is where St Agatha was burned alive by the Romans. She was subsequently honoured by being adopted as the patron saint of Catania.

Trapani

Flying in to Trapani Airport is a popular, cheaper choice. Book your vehicle early for the summer, especially those MPV and minivans.
