Sicily, a paradise for epicureans
Why Sicily?
Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean, is like an open-air museum of history. With its mix of Greek, Roman, Arab and Norman influences, the island offers a unique cultural experience. But that's not all; Sicily is also blessed with breathtaking scenery, from majestic mountains to vast beaches.
Nice-to-Knows
Did you know that Sicily is known not only for its delicious cannoli and limoncello, but also for its impressive vineyards? The local Sicilian wines are some of the best in the world, so be sure to add a wine tour to your itinerary.
Also be sure to visit one of the many local markets in the morning. Here you can sample the true Sicilian atmosphere and discover unique artisan products, from handmade ceramics to local olive oil.
Exploring Sicily like a local
While most tourists gather at the well-known sights such as the Valley of the Temples, we recommend you also visit the Scala dei Turchi, a cliff that resembles a staircase of white limestone leading into the sea. An undiscovered gem with spectacular views.
When is the best time to travel to Sicily?
The best time to visit Sicily is any season except well winter. In spring (April to June) or fall (September to October) you'll have less of the summer crowds and still enjoy pleasant temperatures. Don't forget to plan your trip around local festivals, such as the colorful Carnival of Acireale in February.
Sicilian Hospitality and Genuine Caractère Hotels
Sicily is known for its warm hospitality, and this is reflected in the many typical Caractère boutique hotels scattered throughout the island. From historic country houses to modern oases, these hotels offer not only comfortable accommodations but also an authentic Sicilian experience.
For foodies, Sicily is a true paradise. Sample fresh seafood on the coast, enjoy a traditional Sicilian pizza in Palermo or discover the taste explosions of local dishes in the small trattorias. Don't forget to try the famous arancini - deep-fried rice balls filled with delicious ingredients.
