Overview

Italy’s historic and cultural diversity is perfectly expressed in Sicily, an island rich in history and overflowing with scenic beauty. A visit to Taormina, 200 meters above sea level and looking down onto the Ionian Sea like a terrace, will deliver a calm to the soul, a must see while visiting this island.  

From the breathtaking beauty and vantage point of the Greek Roman theater, one can reflect on the power and motionless grace of Mount Etna. A Visit to the Valley of Temples is a must.  Along the “Sacred Way” one can visit the Temple of Hercules, the Temple of Concord, and the Temple of Juno. Also, not to be missed is the wonderful Garden of Kolymbetra, an old water reservoir of the Greeks.  
 
Major attractions: Taormina, Mount Etna, Siracuse, the Valley of the Temples, Noto, Piazza Armerina, Segesta, Palermo, Cefalù.
 
Major theaters and music venues: Teatro Massimo in Palermo, Siracusa's Greek Theater Festival, Taormina Festival.
