Holidays in Sicily

Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean rich in history, culture and traditions and with an atmosphere that still recalls the glories of ancient Greece, the Arabs and the Normans.

A holiday in Sicily is like a full immersion in history, art and architecture and of course the pristine nature that surrounds it.

In this region art, history and culture blend perfectly well with the landscape giving rise to a universe that will amaze you.

In recent years, Sicily has begun to exploit its tremendous natural, historical and artistic patrimony becoming one of the most sought after destination in Italy.

The sea and the hills burnt by the sun represent only the stereotypical picture of the Sicilian landscape. In reality the island is extremely varied and surprising with its stretches of rocky coastline with high cliffs and rocks that alternate with long strips of sand covered by Mediterranean scrub.

Finally, the presence of volcanoes like Etna, Stromboli and Vulcano make the Sicilian landscape unique and inimitable, unlike any other island in the Mediterranean.

Sicily guards jealously its historic, artistic and architectural treasures as an integral part of its natural heritage, where the splendour of ancient ruins are on display to tourists who come from all over the world to visit this truly amazing island.

All this is accompanied by the natural hospitality and cordiality of the Sicilian people.
