Sicily Tours in Summer

What a wonderful adventure on the island of Sicily. There is everything you could want there - history, culture, scenery, food and wine! There was a good mix of everything on this trip, and I felt that I got to see so many amazing things that I wouldn't have had I been holidaying on my own

They did a fanastic job organizing our trip, and were very responsive to iur queries and requests while we were en-route. The walk itself was spectacular although I would not recommend doing it in mid summer (as we did) because of the heat and lack of shade on large sections of the walk.

This trip was a thoroughly enjoyable experience in all respects. It has a well thought-out and interesting itinerary, good hotels and seamless travel arrangements. The tour gives sufficient time to explore many of Sicily’s architectural and cultural wonders, as well as spending several hours on Mt Etna and walking in the Zingaro Nature Reserve. Our guide Francesco was outstanding – very friendly, informative and helpful. At some of the sites we had local guides who were also very good. Our enjoyment of the trip was greatly enhanced by our fellow travellers who gelled extremely well as a group and were excellent company throughout the trip.

Excellent weeks walking along beautiful coastal paths with a small group of like minded hikers. (And fortunately Nino had a great sense of humour!) The walking is fairly easy with the usual loose rocks; I find boots best giving ankle support combined with beach shoes and sandals for other "terrain". When snorkelling I saw sea urchins so worth keeping the beach shoes on when swimming. Delicious Italian food........what more can you say

A fast paced, very full itinerary, covering some truly amazing places. Great group, made up of caring, fun, interesting and interested folks from a whole range of backgrounds. Highlights were the Etna Volcano visit by cablecar and Greek Temples at Selinunte. The tour does not include the mosaics of Villa Romano or the Aeolian Islands, both of which I still want to see....so look out Sicily, I'll be returning!

From the time we lasted until we were dropped off, the whole tour was beyond excellent. The food and wine tours were varied from small plates at different restaurants to large meals at scenic settings. We ate at a seaport and at a farm house (the setting was far from rustic), in markets, and wineries. We had a cooking class where we prepared a traditional Sicilian meal. We stayed in wonderful hotels and had terrific tour guides. The tours were fabulous but they were short enough to allow for sometime to explore on our own. I would highly recommend this well managed and well planned tour.
