Two towns, one smooth Sicily day. This excursion is a smart way to get out of Palermo and still feel like you saw real places, not just stopped for photos. I love the A/C minivan pickup and drop-off (including port…
Two volcano worlds in one long day. I love the Mount Etna crater-side guiding with safety gear, and I love the way the day cools off in the Alcantara Gorges after the heat of the volcano. The only real drawback…
