  • Zit op de stoel van Al Pacino in Bar Vitelli
Dit kun je verwachten

‘We're going to make you an offer you can't refuse'. Het is tenslotte het gebied van de maffia. Hollywood streek in dit gedeelte van de wereld neer om scenes van de trilogie van The Godfather op te nemen. Dus je krijgt op deze uitstap twee Siciliaanse bergdorpen te zien die hebben geschitterd op het filmscherm. En zo beleef je weer helemaal enkele beroemde scenes uit de films.

Vandaag de dag zijn deze Siciliaanse dorpen nagenoeg verlaten, dus het lijkt alsof je in een spookstad loopt. Eerst bezoek je het kleine Sayoca waar je de kerk aantreft waarin Michael Corleone trouwde, gespeeld door Al Pacino. Je loopt in zijn voetsporen terwijl je door de kronkelige steegjes slentert en even op zijn stoel zit in Bar Vitelli.

Na een schitterende rit op het platteland kom je snel aan in het middeleeuwse Forza d'Agro, een klein bergdorp. Daar zie je de Chiesa della Santissima Annunziata, ook bekend van The Godfather. En zelfs als je niet van die films houdt, zijn er altijd nog de spectaculaire uitzichten vanaf deze bergdorpen.

Full-day Valley of the Temples and Scala dei Turchi tour

Two of Sicily's highlights are in the spotlight on this full-day tour. You'll visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Valley of the Temples, an archaeological site that's loaded with what's left of seven 2,500-year-old shrines, including the Temple of Concordia – it's ranked as one of the best-preserved Greek temples in the world. Afterwards, you'll head to one of the top ten most unique coastlines as named by TripAdvisor – Scala dei Turchi. Giuseppa, one of our expert local guides, says “the Valley of the Temples is landscaped with lots of flowering almond trees, another staple of Sicily, that will really add something extra to the photos you take here.”First up is one of the largest archaeological sites in the world, the immense Valley of the Temples in Agrigento. It packs in the remains of seven temples perched on a high ridge, all of which you'll see, including the ruins of the Temple of Zeus and Concordia Temple at the end of the Sacred Way. The temples here are over 2,500 years old, so there are a lot of pages in the history books to uncover. You'll be given headphones to hear your guide, too, so you won't miss any details.Afterwards, you'll make your way to the bright white Scala dei Turchi, a natural limestone staircase that is dug into the cliffs and weaves its way down to the sea. You'll have some time to unwind and go for a swim before heading back to the hotel.

Sicily tour with Randazzo Market and wine-tasting by Mount Etna

Sicily tour with Randazzo Market and wine-tasting by Mount Etna

With the popularity of TV shows like White Lotus, Sicily has upped the ante as a must-see destination for set-jetters – that's people inspired by TV and film set locations to me and you. You'll find plenty of sights to capture for yourself on this full-day tour that takes in the town of Randazzo, just north of Mount Etna, and a winery where you'll get to taste the fruits of the volcanic landscape. Francesca, a local guide, says “I love the start of this tour, as we drive through one of Sicily's best kept secrets – the Alcantara Valley. You'll see hillside villages, gorges and the mountainous panoramas that Sicily is famed for.”The bustling town of Randazzo is your first stop, sitting on the north-west fringe of Etna National Park. It's one of the only towns to remain untouched by Etna's historic eruptions, so a lot of the classic Sicilian architecture of the churches and houses is still in its original form. Every Sunday is about one thing here – the local market, which you'll get free time to explore. Seek out regional specialities here, like sweet cannoli and local olives and mushrooms, or snack on arancini rice balls as your browse delicate ceramics on the stalls. Round off your experience with a trip to a top-tier vineyard for a tasting session on the slopes of Mount Etna. The volcanic soil is super fertile here and delivers crisp, citrusy whites and earthy, cherry reds. You can buy a few bottles to take home as a reminder of the taste of Sicily.
