Italy (Sicily), 14 Days · Tailor-made by car

Eternal Sicily Route

Palermo to Trapani, one of the most impressive drives in Italy

The Eternal Sicily tour allows travellers to explore the whole of this fascinating "Fire Island". A route through the most interesting sites of Sicily custom-designed for intrepid travellers who know that the journey is just the beginning and want to leisurely explore one of Europe's most attractive destinations and its breathtaking World Heritage Sites. It's easy to fall in love with this eternal meeting place between East and West, between Africa and Europe, and between a majestic and ancient past and a surprising present. You'll have two full weeks to experience the island like a true Sicilian! A fun, enriching trip packed with stunning monuments, unforgettable experiences, new sounds, and flavours ranging from bitter to spicy to sweet. All washed down with the famous Marsala wine! From the Ballarò (Palermo) and Pescheria markets (Catania) to famed urban restaurants and laid-back terraces overlooking the sea. Its culinary fusion is part of the imprint left on this land by major civilisations. A historic legacy that is also present in archaeological sites such as Selinunte, Segesta and the Valle dei Templi in Agrigento. Behind the wheel, you'll discover the beauty and cultural wealth of the great baroque cities of Catania and the Val di Noto (Syracuse, Noto, Modica and Ragusa) and a host of varied and colourful landscapes ranging from beautiful beaches such as Cefalú to fertile farmland, hills crowned with Magna Graecia temples, and the salt marshes of the picture-postcard Via del Sale. And the smouldering craters of Etna, the largest active volcano in Europe! Join us on one of the most impressive routes in Italy and enjoy the road.

Important remarks

- Triple rooms in Europe are generally rooms with twin beds or a double, in which a folding bed is installed to accommodate the third person. Due to the inconvenience this causes, we advise against using this option as far the possible.

- The proposed excursions and tours for each day are purely suggestions, as you can tailor the trip to suit your times, tastes and needs.

- A credit card is considered a guarantee, so sometimes you will need one for check-in at hotels.

- Hotels usually have cots available. Otherwise, babies will have to share a bed with an adult.

- To pick up your rental car, you'll need a credit (not debit) card in the name of the person who made the booking, who must also be the named driver of the vehicle.

- Consult the necessary documentation to enter the destinations visited and for transit in the countries where air stopovers are made.
