Synonymous with mouth-watering cuisine, spellbinding opera and ancient architecture, Sicily is one of Italy’s best-loved destinations. Its most famous attraction, Mount Etna, is the tallest active volcano in Europe and is best explored with a cable-car ride and guided walk to the summit. Any Sicilian jaunt should also include a visit to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of the Valley of the Temples, which offers a window into ancient Greek civilisation, and Syracuse, once the largest city in the ancient world. Then there’s Palermo, a city so packed with history and heritage it’s worth taking a week just to explore its baroque facades, lavish palazzos and busy markets.
