Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily

Start & end in Catania 8 days Up to 40

About this trip

Eight days travelling around Sicily by coach, with a guide staying with you for the whole tour. It is a straightforward, well-organised way to see the island without worrying about logistics.

You will be based in 4-star hotels on a half-board basis, so breakfast and dinner are taken care of, leaving days free for sightseeing and local food.

Expect a mix of history and culture, with visits to some of Sicily's UNESCO World Heritage Sites alongside chances to try the island's specialities.

What you'll do

  • Guided sightseeing across Sicily for the full 8 days
  • Visit UNESCO World Heritage Sites on the island
  • Taste Sicilian food and drink specialities
  • Travel by deluxe coach between stops
  • Stay in 4-star hotels on a half-board basis
Good to know
  • Coach-based tour with a guide throughout, suited to those who prefer a structured, comfortable itinerary over independent travel
  • Half-board hotels cover breakfast and dinner, so lunches are your own to explore local options
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you want comprehensive Sicilian sights with knowledgeable guides. Think twice if you're older, need accessibility support, or expect 4-star hotels and inclusive entrance fees.

  • Guide quality varies wildly—Placido and Rita were exceptional, multilingual, and genuinely knowledgeable about the island.
  • Hotels rated 4-star often aren't: broken toilets, mold, construction noise, no in-room coffee, and peeling paint reported.
  • UNESCO site entrance fees aren't included despite advance booking, adding unexpected costs; lunches rushed and repetitive vegetable rotation.
  • Only six days of actual touring in an 8-day trip; pace too packed for older travellers; free time needs maps provided.
