Southern Italy's Volcanoes, Ancient Cultures & Sun-Warmed Beaches
According to legend, three mythological nymphs created Sicily. And what a land they made. Whitewashed towns cling to cliffs high above the sea. Tendrils of hot steam drift above volcanic rocks. Trees and wildflowers embellish the green hillsides. And just off the coast, discover the magic of the Aeolian Islands. However it came to be, this place is spectacular.
Highlights
- Voyage from Sicily's dramatic Mount Etna to a string of enchanting islands in the Aeolian archipelago
- Elevate your journey with wine tastings and incomparably fresh cuisine, a tasty byproduct of the country's rich volcanic soil
- Hike across varied and exotic terrain—lush vineyards, expansive coastal cliffs and ancient black lava fields
- Rest your head at luxurious seaside resorts where Michelin-starred food and jaw-dropping views are only moments away
