Solo-ish Sicily - Italy

Jump headfirst into the wonders of Sicily on this eight-day Solo-ish adventure from Catania to Palermo. They say the best way to understand a culture — and bond with your new travel besties — is through food, so get ready to dive in with a market tour and hands-on cooking class. Wander through vibrant market stalls, breathe in the aroma of local delicacies, and savour every bite of Sicily’s famous cuisine. Then, stand in awe beneath the towering Mt. Etna, exploring its volcanic landscapes and lush flora. From one breathtaking coast to the other, you’ll leave with a full camera roll, a happy stomach, and a group of lifelong friends!

Day 1 Dinner Party: Catania
Welcome to Catania. Meet your included arrival transfer at the airport, then join your CEO and fellow travellers for a welcome meeting before being immersed in the local gastronomy with a cooking class and dinner. Dive head first into Sicily with delicious flavours and new friends.

Day 2 We Day: Catania
Today is all about exploration, local flavours and the community. Set out into Catania this morning with a CEO-led orientation walk and local market tour. Check out the city's highlights before joining a local guide who'll explain life as a migrant in this beautiful city. Finish off with an aperitivo, a cultural ritual to open the stomach before dining.

Day 3 G Day: Crateri Silvestri and Taormina
Time to experience what G does best and becoming immersed in Sicily's culture and history with a surprise G twist occurring somewhere along the way. Head out on a drive to the imposing Mount Etna for a walk through Crateri Silvestri where you can see a group of craters formed from the last eruption as well as incredible views of the coastline. Continue to Taormina and explore the ancient amphitheatre before a bit of free time for lunch. Later, continue to the beautiful village of Castelmola for a walking exploration before returning to Catania.

Day 4 Catania/Agrigento
Wave a bittersweet goodbye to Catania this morning and hop on the bus for the drive to Syracuse. Get your bearings on an orientation walk and enjoy free time to explore this historic and beautiful city. Continue to Agrigento and set off to explore the city centre with your CEO. Learn about the city's rich history and culture, and spend the remainder of the evening at leisure.

Day 5 Me Day: Agrigento
After four days of exploration with your fellow solo-ish travellers, today is yours. Choose to accompany your CEO to a local beach, exploring the protected coastal area and unspoilt beaches, perhaps take an excursion to the Valley of the Temples or just explore and relax on your own. Agrigento really does have it all and there's no better time than today to set off and discover it for yourself.

Day 6 Agrigento/Palermo
Climb aboard a local train and watch the Sicilian scenery drift by as you travel to Palermo. Check in to your hotel and enjoy lunch on your own before setting off with your CEO on an orientation walk of the city. Spend the evening however you wish with free time.

Day 7 Palermo
Enjoy a free day to take advantage of everything that Palermo has to offer. Explore some of the city's monuments, take an excursion to Mondello Beach or set off on a walking food tour to sample some of the delicious local flavours of the street food scene. Re-group in the evening for an optional final dinner out with the group.

Day 8 Palermo
You arrived a solo traveller and are leaving with many new friends. Say goodbye to your fellow Solo-ish travellers and depart at any time.
