Sicily is the Sunshine Island; a harmonic chorus of sky, sea, endless hills and rugged landscapes.

Sicily is the island of Mount Etna, the highest active volcano in Europe.

Sicily is the land of scents; a unique and diverse place, a strange and divine open-air architectural museum; “babba” (mellow), and “sperta” (sly), lazy and yet frenetic; an Island with such an excessive personality that it is hard to know if this is a blessing or a curse.

We’ll be leaving Rome heading for the harbor of Civitavecchia to board the night-ferry for Palermo, Sicily.

The next six days will be spent traveling on back roads with hardly any traffic, at times a little rough, but absolutely stunning, where uncontaminated views open up abruptly, bearing witness to the ancient Civilizations which have conquered this land over the centuries.

Six days that will also be filled delicious food: “cannoli“, “arancini” and “arancine”, sea-food and meat; wines born to a land where the sun has no shame in being too bright.

And then back on the ferry that goes to Naples, and from there to Rome.

Enrico Grassi, Tour Leader and Founder of Hear the Road, has spent many hours exploring the riding routes and the extraordinary hospitality of this incredible island, in order to give you a holiday adventure that you will always remember with a smile.
