Shore Excursions

From Catania

The island is full of archeological wonders. In addition to splendid Baroque cities and ancient traditions. Moreover it has a large variety of excellent wines, ancient cellars and vineyards. Typical dishes, traditional foods and its culture makes this destination certainly a special place. The beautiful island of Sicily is poised between Europe and Africa. Many invaders left their mark in art and architecture. Finally it is also a land of myth and enigma. Pagan below the Catholic surface. On the other hand troubled by the shadow of the Mafia.

Sicily has a great central position in the Mediterranean. For centuries this has made it also an ideal place for the integration of Mediterranean culture. Just think of the Carthaginian, Greek and Roman colonizations. When usages and customs of the Siculi, Elimi and of the Sicani blended with those of the peoples who came from beyond the sea. Its traditions and customs never fail to fascinate. Its rarities and uses and the places of its myths enrapture each and every traveler.
