Sicily is one of the most fascinating islands in Europe, thanks to the indelible marks left by the Phoenician, Greek, Roman, Arab, Norman and Spanish civilisations. This comprehensive tour explores sophisticated cities, picturesque villages, well-preserved archeological sites and splendid scenery. It starts with an excursion on Mount Etna, continuing to the towns of Syracuse, Agrigento, and Selinunte – all Unesco World Heritage sites. There is also a day in Zingaro National Reserve with magnificent views of the Mediterranean.
Join us to celebrate Exodus’ 50th anniversary! The departure starting in Viagrande on 7 September 2024 features extra inclusions to mark the occasion: a traditional puppet show, a local birthday celebration and a special edition Exodus kitbag.
