A Sicilian Mosaic
11 Days / 9 Nights

For over twenty-five centuries a long cavalcade of invaders, conquerors and rulers has
rewarded Sicily with a rich encrustation of architecture and archeological remains.
The island is a world of its own, shaped by these diverse cultural influences and
maintaining its deep traditions. Here we find the most splendid Ancient Greek temples,
Roman amphitheatres, Byzantine mosaics, Norman churches and exuberant
Baroque palaces. Get off the beaten track in a magical exploration of this greatest but
still profoundly secret Mediterranean island.
