From Mount Etna to the Sicilian beaches and beyond
The unique geography of Sicily
Sicily is an island surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea, located to the south of the Italian peninsula. It is known for its unique geography and its active volcano, Mount Etna, which is the highest active volcano in Italy and Europe. Nature reserves and the unique landscape of the island make it a perfect destination for an adventurous vacation.
The different colors of Sicily
Sicily is a place of many colors. From the crystal blue waters of the sea to the deep green of the olive trees or the vivid orange of the citrus fruits, the island is full of vibrant colors. The sky is blue, the landscape is yellow and dry in summer. The mountains are simply majestic.
The gorgeous beaches of Sicily
Sicily is also home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. From the white, fine sand beaches of the West to the black beaches of the Aeolian Islands, Sicily has something for everyone. The perfect family beaches in Sicily can be found around Siracusa and Noto in the South East.
Explore the Islands and Nature Reserves of Sicily
Sicily boasts some of the most untouched natural environments in Europe. Explore the many nature reserves. Visit the smaller islands of Sicily, such as Stromboli, Panarea, Salina, Vulcano, Ustica, Filicudi, and Alicudi. Marettimo or Levanzo for some of the best unspoiled coasts in the Mediterranean Sea.
Explore the many Nature Reserves in Sicily
Sicily is home to several Nature Reserves. For instance, the Zingaro Nature Reserve on the West Coast and the Vendicari Nature Reserve on the East Coast, or the inland gorges of Pantalica and Cavagrande del Cassibile. Last but not least, Etna the Volcano listed among the UNESCO world heritage. These reserves are home to a wide variety of rare plants and animals, which make nature and wildlife on the island distinctive.
13 minor islands surround Sicily mainland
The uniqueness, intimacy and exclusivity of the Sicilian minor islands can only make your visit in Sicily better. The 7 volcanic Aeolian island in the North Coast of Sicily, or the Caribbean style waters of the Aegadian islands in the West Coast or the African identity of Pantelleria and Lampedusa will make you crave to come to Sicily again many times to see them all.
An island in the heart of the Mediterranean Sea
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea as well as the largest Italian region. Its position on the southernmost part of Italy makes it a crossroads between Europe and Africa. From the snow-capped summit of Mount Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, to its stunning beaches, the island offers a blend for everyone.

Visitors can explore the volcanic landscape on a variety of guided tours and excursions, from a leisurely stroll around the trails of the volcano to an adrenaline-filled hike to the summit.

Teníamos en mente un recorrido por Sicilia, pero necesitábamos ayuda para aterrizar el plan en el lugar. Queríamos visitar tanto la parte oeste como la parte del este de la isla y un par de lugares al norte y al sur. Mucho territorio por recorrer. Buscando algún operador local, Time for Sicily apareció en la web. Encontramos en esa compañía exactamente lo que necesitábamos: asesores de viaje nacidos en Sicilia y amantes y conocedores de su lugar natal. Aparte de ofrecer guías digitales para hacer el viaje por cuenta propia, ofrecían también otra opción: ayuda para diseñar un recorrido a la medida y para la organización de los detalles.
Time for Sicily rebasó en todo momento nuestras expectativas: en cuanto al itinerario, nos ayudaron a refinar el plan que teníamos. Tuvieron un excelente oído para escuchar gustos y necesidades y hacer los ajustes entre todo ello y el presupuesto. En distintos momentos de la preparación intervinieron con el consejo adecuado para esquivar dificultades con aerolíneas, evitaron que traslapáramos lugares donde veríamos cosas parecidas y mejor hicieron sugerencias sobre lo que no debíamos de perdernos, escuchando siempre nuestras preferencias.
Nos ofrecieron opciones de hospedaje para cada lugar, lugares siempre bien localizados dentro de presupuesto. Visitamos cada ciudad con guías locales con los que Time for Sicily trabaja, guías con preparación académica que hicieron una enorme diferencia en nuestra apreciación de los lugares. Nos proveyeron de transportación con compañías confiables, sugerencias y reservaciones en restaurantes, recomendaciones de vuelos y mucho más. En algún momento intentamos por nuestra cuenta comprar, sin éxito, boletos para una función de teatro griego en Siracusa. No lo logramos hacer por la página del INDA en internet. En Time for Sicily los compraron por nosotros.
Estuvieron pendientes acompañando cada detalle tanto en la etapa de preparación como durante el transcurso del viaje y en todo momento en comunicación por Whatsapp. El trabajo que realizaron en Time for Sicily, tanto Paola como Francesco, fue impecable en todos sentidos. ¡Necesitaríamos una Paola y un Francesco para visitar cada parte del mundo! Si uno desea viajar a Sicilia (y pronto a Roma, están creciendo) sin contratiempos —cada elección hecha con todo cuidado— no dudamos en recomendar a Time for Sicily.

I tried the tailor-made travel planning & concierge service in Eastern Sicily and I loved the end-to-end coordination offered by our travel consultant. From understanding me and my girlfriend's preferences to sourcing the best hotels, as well as tailored guided tours and sport experiences for us! We had an hassle-free trip with a private transfer service and we loved the driver Time for Sicily recommended. This was really a luxury travel experience in Sicily with the travel consultant always supporting us also when on site with questions and changes to the plan. Totally recommended, and we will go back next year, this time to Western Sicily!

The support we received in preparing our trip and the tailor-made travel documentation were really great! We appreciated at most how Francesco understood our wishes and was able to propose a great plan for us! It saved a lot of time in our preparation and we saw places we would probably not have thought about.

El seu coneixement profund dels destins i la seva habilitat per descobrir llocs poc coneguts et portaran a llocs que mai hauries imaginat. 100% recomendable!

Non una semplice guida, ma un vero e proprio catalogo di esperienze (culturali e non solo) compilato da chi conosce e ama la bellissima Sicilia. Pratica da consultare anche sul vostro telefono! Assolutamente raccomandata!

Fantastica guida, tanti ottimi suggerimenti per il nostro weekend a Palermo. La guida è strutturata secondo un ipotetico tour, quindi vi consente di seguire un percorso razionale e risparmiare tempo. Non solo luoghi da visitare, ma anche posti per bere e mangiare. Il tutto interattivo! Consigliata

Le guide di viaggio digitali ci sono state utilissime per l'organizzazione della vacanza in famiglia. La selezione di hotel e ristoranti consigliati ci ha permesso di organizzare il tour perfetto in pochissimo tempo e con il concierge service, Time for Sicily ci ha risparmiato le interazioni con l'hotel e ci ha trovato la soluzione giusta per una vacanza con le bambine. GRAZIE Time For Sicily, definitely worth it!!!!!!

Excelente servicio! Contacté al equipo de Time for Sicily para pedir sugerencias sobre excursiones al Etna, así como para visitar plantaciones de pistachios. Las recomendaciones fueron muy exhaustivas y detalladas además de gran ayuda especialmente para contactar con las plantaciones de pistachio. El ebook fue también de mucha utilidad para conocer otras partes menos turísticas de Sicilia. Servicio totalmente recomendable!
