Sicily is a large region that requires significant driving. It is also very mountainous and, as a result, has many winding roads. We have designed the itinerary to break up the driving as much as possible, but on some days, long drives will be necessary. We offer relaxed itineraries, a range of activities and excursions seeking out intriguing and off the-beaten-path destinations with extra comfort and a leisurely pace. You will always have time on your own during day trips for exploring, or shopping and relaxing.
