For those touring Sicily by car, the eight car tours (mostly circular and covering 2000 km) follow little-used secondary roads wherever possible. If you're walking in Sicily, the routes are as varied in length and grade as the landscape itself - a distillation of the best on the island. Whatever your age or ability we've got some glorious walks and car tours to ensure you have a memorable holiday in Sicily.
