The historical center of Catania

Catania is on the slope of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe. This city, especially the historical center, is among the 7 wonders to see in Sicily that Dimensione Sicilia picked for you. Baroque style strongly characterizes this city as well as the street build with black lava stone. It’s something unique, you won’t miss the chance to take some gorgeous pictures even in front of the symbol of the town, a nice elephant that people from Catania call ‘Liotru’, a Sicilian word that sounds like a mispronunciation of the name Eliodoro. Who’s Eliodoro? Join Sicilian Secrets’ tours and pay attention to the explanations of our guides to know more!

Panarea, Aeolian Islands

Aeolian Islands are one of the best summer destinations ever and Panarea is a sort of ‘queen’ of the archipelago.

Don’t miss the prehistoric village of Cape Milazzese and the bay of Calajunco, take a break at the suggestive Zimmari beach and finally, let your heart go and visit the so-called Cava degli Innamorati…for all the romantics!

Cefalù and Taormina

Almost all Sicilian Secrets tours include a stop both in Cefalù and Taormina. These towns are very popular all around the world and many people consider them as ‘2 postcards’. The charm of their small squares, the view and the kindness of people will seduce any visitor.

Favignana, Aegadian Islands

And if it’s not enough…your bucket list can be enriched with another very special tour to relax and swim in the so-called ‘butterfly island’, Favignana. In the ‘70s the painter Salvatore Fiume gave her the nickname ‘La farfalla’ due to its shape; one of the places you cannot forget to visit is Cala Rossa whose cliff is characterized by blue and crystalline sea to dive and happily swim.
