Highlights
  • Tempio di Segesta - Halfway between the current Palermo and Trapani stands one of the oldest cities that you can visit in Sicily. The first monument to visit is the Doric temple, one of the best preserved Greek temples in the entire Western world. The Doric temple of Segesta stands outside the city walls, on a hill west of the city.
    Wolfgang von Goethe, in his Journey to Italy, described the temple with these words: “The position of the temple is surprising: at the top of a wide and long valley, at the top of an isolated hill and yet surrounded by cliffs, it dominates a vast prospect of lands. “

Additional Information

Experience a memorable journey as you visit timeless temples and Sicily’s most breathtaking archaeological sites. The adventure starts at the legendary Segesta which boasts an isolated temple, a fine example of the Doric style. Moving on, you’ll find the town of Erice, which charms with its simplicity. On the far western tip of Sicily, you’ll be captivated by the pristine salt flats of Marsala. Nestled between the Saline of Trapani and Marsala, the diminutive island of San Pantaleo (also known as Mothia) rises. You can reach Mothia by boat, embarking from the pier by the windmill of the Ettore & Infersa salt flats. The mill, a true artifact of industrial archaeology, shares a rich history with the salt flats. By visiting the island, you join an era where time seems to have stood still.

A fabulous day with a fabulous driver and a fabulous car - My driver Mimo was very punctual in picking me up at the scheduled time. His English was excellent and he was happy, obliging and very knowledgeable in our 9 hours together. He is a real asset to your company! AND the Maserati car was a pleasant surprise to say the least! Thank you for a great day Mimo Helen from Australia

A great day out - We had a wonderful day with our driver Marcello. The destinations were very interesting and well arranged , particularly the Embarcadero across to Mothia which was a bonus. We appreciated the flexibility to vary and arrange our timing within the time available. Happy to recommend to anyone.
