7 days of Tango, Gorgeous Food and Fun surrounded by Art and History in one of the most fascinating cities in the world

Sicily:
The world’s first multicultural society, Sicily has been ruled in the past by Asians, Arabs, Greeks, Romans, Normans and Spaniards. Amazing traces of all these civilizations are still an important part of the present Sicilian landscape rich with Art, Archeology, History, Folklore and breathtaking scenery.

Palermo:
When Goethe visited Palermo in 1787 he wrote: "It's the most beautiful place on earth". Palermo, the capital of Sicily is certainly one of the most fascinating cities in the world with it's heritage of Ancient Palaces, Baroque Churches, Pictoresque Street Markets, Beautiful Monuments and ancient hidden lanes which somtimes makes one feel like travelling back in time.

Suggested flights:
- London Gatwick to Palermo (Easy Jet)
