Driving around Sicily

by Polly74 - last update: Apr 27, 2004

Summer 2002

Sicily Map
As I said in my Intro page, we like to go on holidays by car.
This was a long trip...from the upper north of Italy dow to the deep south!
.....but very nice!
The only problem driving to the south could be the "Salerno-Reggio Calabria" motorway. There always are some stoppage due to works, but if you try to avoid August (when 80% of Italian people move to vacation) you can drive smoothly.
Trinacria, Sicily's symbol

Something general about....

It's more than an island! Discover Sicily and discover the world. The world's first multicultural society, Sicily is Italy's (and Europe's) most historically cosmopolitan region, having been ruled by Asians, Africans and Europeans. Sicily is black and white and a million shades of gray. There's no other place on Earth like Sicily.
This island is a unique place full of art, archeology, history, folklore and breathtaking scenery. And, of course, great food.
In this travelpage you can find some general things about Sicily, but for more details about the cities we visited, have a look into the specific pages:
Catania
Siracusa
Noto
PiazzaArmerina
Erice
Marsala
Sciacca
Selinunte
Segesta
Pantelleria
