This tour includes:

Meals

1 dinner is included on this tour, along with breakfast at the hotel. We are very picky about food and refuse to accept anything short of quality. We do our best to ensure you are being offered healthy and tasty local cuisine.

Transport

We take care of almost all of your transportation needs once you are on the tour.

Guide

Our tour guides/drivers are licensed, speak English and know how to bring excitement to your day. What we deliver is the complete opposite of the cookie-cutting tours the big corporations offer, leaving you in complete boredom. Although our tour guides/drivers are attentive, accommodating and engaged, they also know when to give you your private space and free time. Itโ€™s a perfect balance. *Female guides are available upon request. Note the daytrip to Mount Etna is shared with other travelers. The rest of this tour is exclusive to you and whomever else you may book on behalf of. Also, note that we cannot guarantee our tour guide specifically at Mount Etna will speak English. This specific tour is not for solo travelers. There needs to be minimum 2 persons in your booking.

Accommodation

Below are the names of the hotels where we commonly have our customers stay. Note this is subject to availability. Night 1: Cefalu, Preferred Accommodation: Sea Palace or Sunset Hotel Night 2: Agrigento, Preferred Accommodation: Colleverde Park Hotel or Doric Bed Boutique Hotel Nights 3-6: Catania, Preferred Accommodation: Hotel NH Catania Parco Degli Aragonesi or Hotel Nettuno or Plaza Hotel This tour includes lodging for 1 night, specifically in Agrigento. However, upon request, we can book accommodation for you for all nights at an establishment which meets your needs. For years, we automatically included 5-star hotels in our travel packages. In the interest of our customers, we ultimately decided to reduce the price of our tours and encourage specifically those with higher expectations to simply request room upgrades. Why? Some of our customers want simple and clean but ultimately cheap rooms. Some of our customers want 4-star hotels and are willing to pay more. Others want nothing short of 5-star extravagance. There isnโ€™t a way to uphold ONE standard for hotels in our travel packages considering everyone has a different budget. What we CAN uphold are the standard and quality of our tours, all of which offer nothing short of a first-class experience. Again, upon request, we can upgrade your room type for the night included as well as book lodging for all nights on this tour. Let us know and we will provide you with pricing options.

      Day 3: The Greeks Leaving Their Permanent Mark Here

      Before relocating by train to the coastal city of Catania, we are provided with a guided tour at Agrigentoโ€™s most famous attraction, the Valley of the Temples. This is one of the most outstanding examples of โ€˜Magna Graeciaโ€™ art and architecture. This area was populated by Greek settlers. These settlers, who began arriving in the 8th century BC, brought with them their Hellenic civilization. This left a lasting imprint on the culture of ancient Rome. The Greek settlers also influenced the natives, who quickly adopted the Greek culture as their own. Many locals in this area speak Greek until this very day.

Mount Etnaโ€™s current height is 3,357 meters (11,014 feet). This is also one of the worldโ€™s most active volcanoes. Mount Etna is in an almost constant state of activity. The fertile volcanic soils support extensive agriculture, with vineyards and orchards spread across the lower slopes of the mountain. In June 2013, Mount Etna was added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The evening ends with a cooking class at a localโ€™s home followed by having dinner together.

After the Italian unification, Taormina began to attract well-off tourists from Northern Europe. Taormina quickly became a welcoming haven for artists.
