Details

Sicily has long been known for its delightful year-round climate and excellent hikes, with coastal and mountain walks aplenty. Hike up Monte Monaco for fabulous views over the turquoise waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea and explore the hidden coves and refreshing swimming spots of Zingaro Natural Reserve. A stay in the historic port city of Trapani reveals a fascinating history and culture influenced by its proximity to Tunisia, and we head to the picturesque island of Levanzo for a memorable hike away from the crowds. A trip to western Sicily wouldn't be complete without a visit to the 12th-century hilltop town of Erice, overflowing with historic charm, outstanding views and an air of mystery.

Highlights

  • Discover hidden coves and pristine beaches at Zingaro Natural Reserve
  • Explore the port city of Trapani, where Arabic and Italian influences converge
  • Escape the crowds on the car-free Aegadian island of Levanzo
  • Step back in time at the ancient hilltop town of Erice

Included in Price

  • All breakfasts, one picnic lunch and two dinners are included. The food of western Sicily is heavily influenced by its proximity to Tunisia, with oranges, pistachios, dates and spices often featuring on menus. Snacks such as arancine (deep-fried rice balls) and panelle (chickpea fritters) can often be found at street stalls in towns such as Trapani. The diet in this part of Sicily is heavily dependent on fish and meat; however, vegetarian options are widely available. Breakfast is usually a continental style buffet and for lunch, we either have a picnic or visit a local café. When dinners are not included, your tour leader makes restaurant suggestions so you can sample the best local cuisine available.
