Discover Sicily

Leisure days in Letojanni and Campofelice di Roccella offer time to kick back or join optional trips, while the route includes a visit to the Roman mosaics in the Villa del Casale at Piazza Armerina, a unique collection showing detailed scenes from the 4th century. Palermo provides a contrast with its mix of architectural styles and a street food stop that suggests local life spills readily from cafés onto the pavement. Cefalù’s Norman cathedral holds well-preserved Byzantine mosaics, and the town’s sandy beach is a chance to stretch leg muscles before the flight home.

This small-group tour keeps travel between places manageable, focusing on Sicily’s south and north coasts with a touch of inland history. It offers a variety of landscapes and times from ancient Rome and Norman kings to volcanic peaks and calm waters.
