Sicily Holidays - Hotels, Villas, Apartments & Tours
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean (26,000 sq. km) The Greeks came in the 8th Century BC to bring culture to the island, the Romans conquered with tyranny in 480 BC, the Turks arrived in 827 AD and the Normans threw them off the island in 1100. They remained for almost 200 years, building a magnificent cathedral at Cefalu. Later in 1282, the crown of Aragon in Spain rose to power and the island remained a Spanish property until the Napoleon Dynasty took back the island in 1810. Then there is the infamous Mafia but tourists will never see any sign of their presence. All this history has left its mark on the island with a vast array of archaeological sites, museums, art, and architecture. It would take many weeks to explore its full potential. You will have to be content with exploring just one or two areas. Click below to view our accommodation
