I spent 2 weeks in Sicily and it was amazing. We first stationed in Taormina where we checked out that coast, and then bussed it over to Palermo and did day trips to all those towns. Super easy with the trains and busses, each town was amazing.
Posted: November 8, 2023I was in Sicily this last spring and I absolutely loved it. I stayed at Palermo, Siracusa, and Catania. Lots and lots of history and great architecture and food. I took day trips from Catania to Agrigento which are 4th century BC Greek ruins and Piazza Armerina which is a 4th century Roman Villa w mosaics. Also did day trips to Taormina. I highly recommend Sicily.
Posted: May 24, 2023I did three weeks in Sicily and I loved every minute of it. Palermo wasn't as great as I expected. It's crazy busy, dirty and felt unsafe at times. I don't recommend spending much time there. But worth it for good food and lots of history. Cefalù is great, by the water, amazing little restaurants, fun to walk around. Taormina is awesome but extremely expensive and overly touristic. I did go on a boat excursion at sunset and saw dolphins up close. One of my best travel memories ever. Noto is a must. The small city is absolutely charming and I used it as a base to explore the region. There are really nice beach clubs at Portopalo di Capo Passero. It was really fun just drive in that area through lemon trees and colorful flowers everywhere. I did a quick visit to Modica from there also. Ortigia is also a must. Great food, amazing vibes at night and lots of history. I would recommend avoiding Catania as it's quite unsafe for tourists. I met many other people who regretted adding it to their itinerary.
