Then we'll sip wine on the slopes of Mount Etna, munch cannoli, ponder Greek temples at Agrigento, admire Roman mosaics at the Villa of Casale, and marvel at the view from the Greek theater in Taormina.

I was born in Siracusa, my entire family is from Sicily. Nothing compares to Sicily. Nowhere in the world you can find a comparable mixture of history, culture, tradition, food, landscapes, etc "To have seen Italy without having seen Sicily is not to have seen Italy at all, for Sicily is the clue to everything.” So wrote Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe, after visiting the island in 1787

I love how Rick shows off Europe in such an authentic way. Ultra friendly, no snobbery, and an appreciation for both the folk and aristocratic culture. A lot of people are turned off of Europe understandably because so many are snobby about it, but Rick shows it off in such an authentic and passionate way. He's just true to himself and loves the culture.

In May 2003 I took the ferry from Genoa to Palermo. What a fascinating city. I visited Monreale and then walked back down to Palermo with wonderful views. I had delicious food, one memorable dish was Sicilian cuscusu. I attended a superb performance of Verdi's Macbeth at the beautiful Teatro Massimo. I joined in a passeggiata around Palermo's main piazza. The only thing missing for me was a Jewish community which can be found elsewhere in Italy. I did notice two Protestant churches in Palermo, one of which was Anglican, the other may have been Methodist. I took the train to Agrigento and I recall there was an old man of whom other passengers told me spoke only Sicilian - I had taken Italian classes for a couple of years, so my Italian while not fluent was enough flor me to get by. Agrigento has these wonderful Greek temples just as Rick Steves describes. From there I took the train to Messina where along the way I saw Mt. Etna smoking away! At Messina I took the ferry to Reggio Calabria, well not quite, and waited there for the train to Naples. I want to keep on traveling to Naples again and onto Rome. Let's hope we all do that once more and soon.

We’ve traveled the world, but after working and living mostly in Asia for fifteen consecutive years, we have just recently (in the past 5-6 years) been exploring Europe. We’re quickly becoming fans of your travel guide(s); that contain such outstanding information, and are so complete. The videos are icing on the cake. Thanks for the wonderful insights.

You go to Sicily without going to Syracuse the true historic capital you miss a lot. Also the Baroque towns of Noto Modica Scicli Palazzolo Ragusa Ibla. Sicily is unique the food the people and the history. Eastern Sicily is very Greek and Western has more Arabic in it. I am Sicilian with dark skin and very blue eyes. The Kingdom of Sicily under the Normans was the richest kingdom in Europe, unfortunately the Spanish rule of corruption and feudal society brought us the mafia system.

Bellissimo riprese far conoscere la bellissima Sicilia, spero che venga a sortino prov di Siracusa, Sicilia a raccontare le sue bellezze culturali, naturali e architettonici. Chiese e palazzi barocchi, museo dei pupi siciliani, museo del carretto siciliano, museo dell'antiquariam, i prodotti tipici locali come il miele,il tartufo, il Pizzolo ripieno, l'olio degli iblei ecc ed in particolare la più grande necropoli d'Europa Pantalica e la valle dell'anapo riconosciuto patrimonio dell'umanità dall'UNESCO. buona giornata spero che mi risponda qualcuno.

After Watching Mr. Steve's Travels Through Ancient Rome, Greece, Jeruselum Etc. And, His Discription of God's and Beings From That Time Period 2,500 yrs. And Older... Describing Zeus, and Other Demi God's of That Time. And The Arqueticture, I Find it Much Easier to Believe, That Giant's Exsisted During That Time!!! It's like De-ja-vu... 👁️

Sicily is very beautiful to visit and live in if you have a lot of money, all my family is from Agrigento, the problem is to work, that I don't recommend, the jobs are very badly paid and there is a lot of exploitation of labour, people who earn less than 2 euros an hour (that's what they paid me and what they worked with me when I was 1 year there) and most of the young people go to the north of Italy or to another country in Europe to work, the Sicilian government is not interested in accommodating that, and they know what happens.
