Palermo (Sicily)
Known as a bridge between the East and West, thanks to its geographic location on the northwestern shore of Sicily, Palermo is the island's center of tourism. Travelers will discover plenty of historic and cultural attractions in the city as the result of a long and dramatic history of conquest. Years of transitioning between Phoenician, Arab, Byzantine, and Roman rule can be seen today in a city full of souk-like bazaars, diverse architectural styles, and a delicious variety of cuisine.
Discover the Cathedral, the three markets (Ballarò, Vucciria, Capo), eat pizza at Pollicino, visit Mondello, Castello Utveggio on the top of Mt. Pellegrino, Chiesa della Martorana (a Byzantine Church), Teatro Massimo (3rd largest theatre in Europe), Quattro Canti (represents the four primary districts), Piazza Pretoria, and so much more. -
Trapani (Sicily)
Trapani juts out into the sea from Sicily's rocky west coast, between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Canal of Sicily. This enchanting land is composed of marvelous coasts that alternate with steep cliffs and endless beaches. There are archaeological remains and small villages where the authentic traditions are still part of daily life, making the province a very attractive destination.
Visit and explore the Baroque Old Town, the harbor south of the peninsula, the beautiful beaches, enjoy the cuisine and good restaurants in the center, visit the neighboring medieval village of Erice, the Egadi Islands, three pearls wedged into the Mediterranean's blue waters (Favignana, Levanzo and Maréttimo), Trapani and Paceco salt pans, Segesta Temple and Theater, Monte Cofano Nature Reserve, and so much more. -
Cefalu (Sicily)
Cefalu is notable for beautiful sunsets, unpretentious charm, and a very appealing blend of ingredients for an Italian seaside holiday. Sandy beaches, a picturesque historic town on a rocky headland, some high culture in the shape of a fine Norman cathedral, decent transport links, Sicilian food, and sunshine all add up to make the town one of Italy's most attractive seaside destinations.
Discover and explore the Cathedral in Piazza del Duomo, the beaches, Museo Mandralisca, Temple of Diana, La Rocca, Lavatoio (Medieval Laundry), Temple Santo Stefano, Chiesa di Marta SS della Catena, Gibilmanna, Osterio Magno, and so much more.
