Sicily Holidays

Kicking out from the toe of Italy’s boot is Sicily – a little island with a lot to offer. The interior is a mix of rugged mountains, vineyards, citrus groves and hill towns, while the coast offers beautiful beaches and relaxed seaside resorts.

When it comes to the sights, you’ll discover the influences that have shaped Sicily over the centuries. The Greeks left their mark in the form of theatres and temples, most famously in Agrigento and Taormina; and around Palermo, you’ll discover glittering churches decked out with golden mosaics by the Arabs and Normans.

This melting pot of cultures has also influenced the island’s cuisine. Specialities to look out for on our Sicily tours include arancini (perfectly crispy rice balls), granita (a sorbet-like treat), and pasta alla norma (a deliciously filling dish made with tomatoes, aubergines and ricotta). And to wash it down? A glass or two of Sicilian wine. Cin cin!

Why visit Sicily with Titan?

Sicily is an amazing destination, but exploring on your own can take a fair bit of planning (not to mention nerves of steel if you’re getting behind the wheel). Our Sicily tours wrap up the island’s best bits into memorable – and hassle-free – holidays. We always look to include a few unexpected touches too, so you might enjoy lunch with a local family or a Sicilian wine tasting at a garden festival.

Go for a Sicily grand tour that packs in as many highlights as possible – ours circles the island over 10 days, and includes time in Agrigento, Palermo, Taormina and Syracuse. Or take it easy and enjoy the ‘dolce far niente’ – the sweetness of doing nothing – on a relaxed beach break. Our ‘Sicilian Escape’ break is based in lovely Giardini Naxos, next to the beach and a quick 10-minute bus ride from pretty Taormina.
