Sicily Tours Give a Chance to Explore One of The Most Fascinating Side of Sicily
Each region in Italy has its own unique character set by its special attractions. Sicily, for instance, is the Mediterranean island where people go for a tropical getaway. Embodying Southern Italy’s culture and charm, Sicily is the place to be to explore that side of the country. It is ideally located just off ‘Italy’s boot’, making it easily accessible to most holidaymakers. The right Sicily tours will make sure that you can experience everything that region has to offer, including a glimpse of ancient civilizations, a taste of Mediterranean flavors, and an exciting history lesson.
Sicily can be your starting point for historical tours in Palermo and Catania, the region’s biggest cities. Palermo is a traditional city serving as the region’s capital, and Catania is the historic town on the Ionian Coast, notable for its architectural wonders (i.e. lava-stone buildings) and the pumping nightlife. Sicily tours can take you to Palermo and Catania, as well as the surrounding islands. Some of the must-see places are the Roman Ruins of Catania and Palermo’s Piazza del Duomo, a UNESCO site that is often the first stop when you arrive on the island.
Taormina is another stop that you will see during your Sicily private tour. It is an exotic and lovely ancient destination where you can enjoy views of the sea and Naxos Gardens. 13,000-year old cave drawings can be found on Egadi Islands and Levanzo. For exclusive spa and beauty treatments, the historic Women’s Islands is the place to be. Sicily tours will include visits to the small fishing village of Mandello where you can find the largest beach on the outskirts of Palermo, or you can head to San Vito Lo Capo, the small coastal resort town that is known for its sandy beaches and pleasant waters. Your itinerary may include tours to Aeolian Islands and Lampedusa Island, too.
For the food and wine enthusiast, Sicily tours are not complete without the experience of Sicilian-style cooking in Mazara del Vallo, Noto, Modica, Corleone, Donna Fugata, Melfi, Agrigento, and Trapani. Sicily itself is a haven for foodies where you can try the Mediterranean Diet or sample unique flavors of the region.
