HOW TO SPEND 1 DAY IN ERICE, SICILY, ITALY
Italy is one of the most popular places to visit in Europe. So if you’re planning a vacation to Italy, don’t skip Sicilia!
If you’re looking at a map of Sicily, you’ll notice that Erice is on the coast near Trapani. Erice is 750 meters/2460 feet above sea level, overlooking the Trapani Salt Flats and San Vito lo Capo. That means you get incredible views of Trapani, the Mediterranean Sea, and the Egadi Islands. Of course, there’s plenty of Italian food and wine, too!
Here’s what we include in our 1-day guide to Erice, Sicily:
- How to reach Erice with the Erice cable car (Erice Funivia), by bus, or by car
- The Erice castle, Castello di Venere, and Pepoli Castle
- Our 2 favorite restaurants in Erice, Sicily, Italy
- Can’t-miss pastries (think cannoli and cassata)
- Italian wine (Nero d’Avola is our fave)
- Sicilian and Italian food (like busiate pasta and anything pistacchio)
- The churches, side streets, and parks in this Italian hilltown
- What kinds of souvenirs to buy in Erice
Why Erice? Because we have dual Italian citizenship! In 2016, Jana gained Italian citizenship by descent (jure sanguinis) through her family, and now we both have an Italian passport.

wow loved your video... We are going to around Sicily in April and Erice is one of our stops. I will try the places you have mentioned. I watch a lot of Sicily videos as my family is from there and your video is one of the best by far. Please add more of Sicily :) Thanks

Thanks so much for sharing your travels! Erice looks amazing. It’s so neat that you know the town your ancestors came to America from. Jana, I love that green dress. You make it look so stylish and comfy.

I was in Erice last September. Only one word can describe it - WOW! Your video is great. I wonder what camera did you use? It is very clear and stable.

@AplinsintheAlps Жыл бұрын

How neat, then you know how lovely it is in Erice! We film with an Osmo Pocket and an iPhone 12. You can find links to our cameras on our gear page www.aplinsinthealps.com/our-gear

@@AplinsintheAlps Thanks! That\s sounds cool. As I have told you, last September was in Sicily for the first, but surely not the last time! i am not a pro like but made 4 video clips of my tour (DJI Osmo Action and Olympus E-PL8). Here are the 4 clips - Erice is the second one: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rrySnaWqsdO9qqc.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jteIn6SImse7ZH0.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/at5zdbCG2dKrh2w.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nKmpjZOQ17nRkoE.html

WOW! I’ve been wanting to location in Sicily to visit and use as a home base for exploring the island. Erice is incredible! I’m super jealous of your dual citizenship! My family has been in America since the mid 1700s so the likelihood of me being able to do something like that is slim to none. Enjoy the privilege that you have with that dual citizenship.

@AplinsintheAlps Жыл бұрын

That sounds like a dream, a month in Sicily! Sicily is a charming, relaxed island - we always want to return again! And we are beyond blessed with the opportunities from dual citizenship :)

I love your videos! So informative! Could you please make one on how NOT to look like a tourist in Italy? We are planning on an extended trip and I definitely don't want to stand out as a tourist. Thanks!

What a beautiful place - I reckon you should do food tours - I’d definitely take a place 😆 Also, and this is me probably being pedantic, but isn’t that a cable car rather than a funicular?

Finalmente qualcuno che visita qualcosa di diverso, Palermo Catania Taormina Cefalù....basta!!!!! La Sicilia offre molto di più, ad esempio d' inverno si scia sull'Etna e poi c'è la Sicilia lontano dal mare come la provincia di Caltanissetta ed Enna. Look Centuripe village from sat, it's incredible!!! hello from Sicily ;)
