TOURS AND PROGRAMMES
Authentic Sicilian experiences
Every itinerary we offer comes from years of hands-on work in Sicily.
Below are some examples among our most appreciated itineraries: possible starting points for building your own tailor-made trip.
Explosion of Colours
A complete round-trip of Sicily in 7 nights, designed to take in the island’s most important sights: UNESCO World Heritage sites, guided visits, the landscapes that make Sicily unique. This tour can easily start and end at the same airport.
We take care of providing the client with all the necessary services.
Selected 4-star hotels, a tour leader and local guides in your language, modern and comfortable coaches, meals that showcase the region’s traditional cuisine.
Western Sicily
Itineraries in the provinces of Palermo, Agrigento and Trapani, with the option to add day trips to the beautiful Egadi Archipelago.
Greek temples, salt ponds, and the regional capital – places and traditions that blend together in a succession of world heritage sites.
Eastern Sicily
In a single itinerary, we combine Greek history, Baroque art and volcanic landscapes within just a few dozen kilometres.
Admire the remains of Magna Graecia in Syracuse, the richness of Ragusa’s Baroque in the Val di Noto territory, the dramatic landscape of Mount Etna, and the unrivalled beauty of Taormina.
Aeolian Islands
A week to visit all seven islands of the UNESCO World Heritage archipelago.
We take care of all the logistics: private transfers from the airport to Milazzo, ferry tickets to reach Lipari, and private boats for island-hopping and excursions. The highlight of our itinerary is the excursion that lets you watch the Stromboli volcano erupt from the sea at night!
Before heading home, we also include an overnight stay in the Catania area, to fit in Taormina and Etna before departure.
Hidden Sicily
The parts of the island least visited by classic tourist routes are often the most authentic and underrated.
We know them very well: the Madonie, for example, a green jewel of the Mediterranean officially recognised as a UNESCO Geopark.
We offer itineraries through green hills, nature, villages officially recognised among the most beautiful in Italy — all paired with a food and wine heritage unlike anywhere else, even compared to the rest of the region!
A side of Sicily worth discovering with people who truly know it.
Trekking
Guided walks to discover Sicily’s wildest side: coastlines, nature reserves, UNESCO geoparks. Routes suited to everyone and every fitness level, always led by an expert local guide, with all the charm of Sicilian scenery.
Bike Tours, organised by people who ride
Our cycling itineraries are designed and led by people who work in the field and know the Sicilian roads best suited to bikes, with good road surfaces and the finest views.
The places we stay are equipped for storing bikes and charging batteries, including those that can’t be removed from the frame.
For groups travelling by ship, with their own bus and bike trailer in tow, we handle all the transport logistics. Whenever ferry companies allow it, we act as intermediaries for booking the bus and passengers, the cabins, and any on-board services you’d like.
For groups under 20 people we can also offer an alternative: local rental of a minibus with bike trailer and e-bikes right here in Sicily, without needing to bring the bus over from Europe.
Botanical Tours
Not everyone knows that Sicily is home to some of the richest biodiversity in the whole world.
Here you’ll find vividly coloured wild orchids, Etna’s volcanic broom shrubs, historic citrus groves.
For years we’ve had the honour and pleasure of organising tailor-made tours for enthusiasts and researchers from all over the world, with field research designed and led by the top local botanists, true experts of the territory and its flora.
Food & Wine Tours
The Mediterranean diet and, more recently, Italian cuisine, have both been officially recognised by UNESCO as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Sicilian cuisine is the very quintessence of where these two heritages meet.
Our most indulgent tours are built around tasting street food, centuries-old pastry recipes, and visits to the best wineries with the region’s typical wines, loved all over the world!
We also organise cooking shows and cooking classes, so you can take home the best souvenir of all: a Sicilian recipe!
Religious Tours and Pilgrimages
Routes dedicated to the island’s places of faith and spirituality: sanctuaries, cathedrals, historic pilgrim paths.
We organise meetings with local parishes, masses and visits to attend celebrations for patron saint festivals or other religious occasions.
Movie Tours
Itineraries following in the footsteps of locations made famous by the big screen: Sicily has been the set of global cinematic successes, most recently The Odyssey by Christopher Nolan.
Organised visits to The Godfather‘s filming locations, including Castello degli Schiavi — his real mansion from the film — and Savoca with its Bar Vitelli;
The evocative villages where Cinema Paradiso was filmed, winner of the 1990 Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film;
And the charming Montalbano locations in the province of Ragusa, for fans of the all-Sicilian TV series based on Andrea Camilleri’s crime novels.
Music Tours
For theatre lovers, Sicily is a true paradise.
We organise tours and secure tickets to concerts and performances in the region’s most famous theatres.
The modern theatres, like Teatro Massimo and the Politeama in Palermo;
And the millennia-old ancient theatres, with their incredible acoustics and natural scenery, like the Greek Theatre of Taormina and the one in Syracuse.
And for those looking for something truly unique, there’s the delightful Sicilian Opera dei Pupi puppet theatre, a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage!
Heritage Tours
For those with Sicilian roots looking to reconnect with them: we can get in touch with town halls for genealogical research, and arrange visits to your family’s town of origin.
Don’t miss the chance to reconnect with the past, breathe the same air and walk the same streets as your ancestors. The oldest residents of these towns might share local stories that only they remember, along with all sorts of other curiosities, recipes and traditions!
Women-only Tours
We organise women-only groups with tried-and-tested itineraries for those who prefer travelling in a more intimate setting.
We tell the stories of Greek goddesses, patron saints, and the women who work every day to make Sicily great.
Stays in charming B&Bs and boutique hotels, dinners at women-run restaurants, visits to the most evocative places, and organised encounters with Sicilian women showing every side of life on the island.
Accessible Tours
We believe that everyone has the right to enjoy a holiday, and for years we’ve worked to perfect our welcome for guests with disabilities.
For these groups we arrange a dedicated bus with the following features: accessible bathroom, wheelchair lift, wider seating for every type of wheelchair.
The itineraries are more relaxed, with just one stop per day — the right pace to enjoy a restful holiday.
