Italy is a country of wonderful contrasts, and on this spectacular tour we head south to the mystical island of Sicily, still part of Italy but a very special place with its own distinctive heritage and culture. Perhaps the most historically cosmopolitan region in the whole of Europe, so many cultural influences have shaped this land – Asian, African, Greek, Roman to name but a few – there is no other place quite like it. It is a unique place full of art, archaeology, history, folklore, breathtaking scenery and of course, great food and wine! You will be enchanted.
“If you like Italy as far south as Rome, go further south. It gets better. Italy intensifies as you plunge deeper”. Rick Steves
