Sicily Travel for Couples
Sicily brings together ancient history, dramatic volcanic landscapes, beautiful coastlines, baroque towns and some of Italy’s most distinctive food traditions. Explore our first-hand experiences across the island, from historic towns and coastal escapes to Mount Etna and the landscapes that make Sicily such a rewarding destination to explore by road.
Discover places such as Syracuse, Noto, Acireale, Erice, Agrigento and Alberobello-area experiences, together with scenic journeys, local food, historic sites and memorable stops along the way. These guides share the places we’ve explored ourselves and the experiences that made our Sicilian travels special.
Whether you’re wandering through baroque streets, discovering ancient sites, driving along the coast, exploring volcanic landscapes or enjoying Sicilian food together, these guides offer practical ideas for experiencing Sicily independently and at your own pace.
Three couples, two Sicilian cities and no cooking: our September 2026 Sicily trip took us from Palermo to Marsala, with pizza, wine tasting, salt pans and plenty of good company along the way.
Our East Sicily road trip took us from the Messina ferry through Acireale, Syracuse, Noto and Taormina to Mount Etna – a memorable mix of Baroque towns, coastal views, ancient history and volcanic landscapes.
