Summary

Come and discover Sicily’s southeast with its stunning baroque towns and rolling landscape. Cycle along quiet roads and take in the views of the countryside with deep canyons carved by the fast flowing streams. Enjoy the beauty of the vast orange and lemon plantations in the nature reserve of the Anapo Valley.

Cycle to Vendicari, a protected white beach where many different species of birds build their nests. You’ll discover relics and monuments, such as the Necropolis of Pantalica (caves excavated in the rock walls). You’ll cycle through Noto’s Valley and discover several baroque towns such as Noto, Modica, Syracuse-Ortigia, and Palazzolo Acreide. You will love the richly decorated churches and palaces.

Sicily will also captivate you with its food; a unique cuisine developed over time by the influences of many cultures. Choose from local dishes such as caponata, parmigiana, pasta with sardines, tuna, washed down with a glass of the local wine. 

Accommodation

One of the features of this holiday is the typical Sicilian 3 and 4 star agriturismo hotels where you will stay. Set in the countryside and chosen for their peace and quiet, these are hotels where the owner is also a farmer. The only hotels used in towns are in Ibla and Syracuse.
