With its idyllic climate, dramatic vistas, and hearty cuisine, Sicily may embody all things Italian—but it is also rich with its own distinct cultures. Our Extended Vacation here explores two of its most enticing regions in depth. In the cliffside resort of Taormina, you'll marvel at sweeping views of mountain and ocean, over seen by the mighty Mt. Etna. Plus, with our original Dine-Around program, you can eat Sicilian-style at your choice of several local restaurants in Taormina. Then discover the vibrant capital city of Palermo, you'll uncover Arab, Norman, and Roman influences—plus a tapestry of Mediterranean cultures. It's all yours at incredible Grand Circle value.
