Best of Sicily
Sicily is a sweet, sour, spicy
tajine
of East-West architecture, impossibly ancient ruins, and
fiery geology. Fly into
Palermo
, taking three days to savour its raffish palazzi , souklike
markets, and the extraordinary mosaics at Cattedrale di Monreale.
On day four, conjure the ancients at the Doric temple in
Segesta
, before continuing to
Trapani
to sample its celebrated Arabesque cuisine. Come morning, hop on the funicular
to hilltop
Erice
, but come back down to spend day six sipping sweet local wine in elegant
Marsala
and day seven roaming the Greek ruins of
Selinute
. The incredible Valle dei
Templi in
Agrigento
is your destination on day eight.
On day nine, shoot to the Val di Noto to explore the World Heritage baroque towns of
Ragusa
,
Modica
and
Noto
. Change gear on days 12 and 13 in youthful, worldly
Catania
