Immerse yourself in Sicily during our Secret Sicily tour. Secret, because you’ll escape the ordinary with 10 days based in the mountain village of Licodia Eubea. You’ll delight in Eastern Sicily’s treasures—its people, its heritage, its cuisine, and its natural beauty as we go deeper into Sicily. We’ll visit principal sites while basing ourselves in a town of 3000 locals as they celebrate their patroness Santa Margherita–that’s the secret part! Your intellect will be stimulated by UNESCO sites while your heart will be warmed by the generosity of our local hosts.
“A thoughtfully curated and executed tour. It was an amazing introduction to Sicily as it is today, as well as the history and living culture of the island. Allison fine tuned and tweaked the experiences during our tour which enhanced our trip greatly, our comfort and enjoyment of paramount importance. I can’t say enough good things about this trip. This is what travel is about.”
