Here you will find tips and experiences taken from our Sicily travellers' feedbacks. Of course we would be glad to receive your comments and pictures as well!


„Our insiders’ tip for Sicily: Cava Grande del Cassibile. The canyon is located to the northwest of Avola in the eastern part of Sicily. Here, the river Cassibile forms a canyon which is 10 km long and 250 m deep. From the vista point, there is a stairway in the rocks which takes you to the five “freshwater pools” of the canyon in half an hour. You can take a refreshing bath and simply relax. For the way back you have to count an hour. We undertook this tour when it was 35 degrees in the schade. All in all, a very sweaty affair. But our reward, the well-earned cooling, was always in sight.” J. Ehmer, Villa Nives (Sicily), July/August 2008.

Mrs. Oswald in a pescheria in Avola. "Dear Cilentano-Team, thank you very much for the good planning and the tip to take along warm clothing. December evenings can be rather cold on Sicily, even though you can enjoy the sunshine on the veranda at noon. We felt very comfortable at Villa Nives." Guests Oswald, Villa Nives (Sicily), December 2007.
Hours to be remebered
„We spent a wonderful holiday on Sicily! (…) With family Allegra, we got to know such friendly people who made our stay so very agreeable and showed us the cultural face of the island. Our evenings of games (without knowledge of the Italian language, only with a dictionary) will remain unforgettable. This developed into a friendship which we will surely cherish.” Guest Krichbaum, Villa Allegra (Sicily), September 2007.
