Sicily Tailor Made Holidays

Car-free or fly and drive?

Once you arrive, the best way to visit Sicily is by car.

 

If you don’t feel like driving, don’t rely on trains. If anything, there are bus companies that connect the main cities to each other (Sais, Etna Trasporti and Interbus, but there are also others).

 

We can help you navigate the timetables and create an itinerary around, but keep in mind that, compared to a car, buses only travel between town centres.

 

For connections to the Aeolian, Ustica and Egadi islands, you are spoiled for choice between ferries and hydrofoils.

 

 

How long should I spend in Sicily?

If you want to tour around from Palermo to Catania, and also hit up Trapani, Ragusa and the smaller islands, you should consider taking at least three weeks. If you only have two weeks, you’ll have to cut something out, but you can still make a nice itinerary.

 

A week and a bit

If you can’t strecth it to two weeks, we suggest you only devote yourself to one area. You could opt for a tour of the east coast between Catania and Siracusa. Or, again in a week, you could choose to visit the west coast between Palermo and Trapani.

 

Another idea on what to visit in Sicily within a week could be the area of the Val di Noto with Ragusa, Modica and Siracusa.

When to go?

If swimming in the sea is not one of your objective, you can holiday in Sicily pretty much any time of the year. For example, on the 13 of December, when its celebrate its Patron Saint Lucy, Siracusa makes an excellent Christmas breaks.

 

Of course, being able to choose, one would exclude January to March because of the rain and, arguably, August because of the summer full house.

 

In August, beaches and resorts are overcrowded, it is difficult to find some space (and relax) at the sea. Not to mention August’s central week when, almost everywhere, total chaos reigns.

 

June and September are two excellent months for holidays in Sicily, not only for a more limited crowding issue but also for the temperature, hot but not sultry and gently breeze. Some showers can always happen, especially in September, but they are phenomena that usually do not last long. ​​September is also when the sea is at its best: calm, flat, warm and, above all, unfrequented.

 

Even July could be fine if you do not suffer too much from the high temperatures: in Sicily in July, it is usually warmer than in August, but there is not the same confusion.

 

May is another excellent period to visit Sicily, as temperatures remain around 25-26 degrees during the day but that drops a lot in the evening, specially, if you are away from the coast.
