The "Cycling In Sicily" trip starts and ends in Syracuse. It is a bicycle tour that takes 8 days taking you through Syracuse, Marzamemi and Modica in Italy. "Cycling In Sicily" is a guided small group trip that includes accommodation in hotels, meals and others.

Classic Mediterranean landscapes, millennia-old history and some of Italy’s best food: Sicily is the perfect destination for a well-balanced cycling adventure. On the bike, we explore the southeastern part of the island, riding along the coast, through vineyards and to the edge of Cavagrande del Cassibile, one of the deepest canyons in Europe. Off the saddle, there’s culture and architecture in the UNESCO-listed baroque towns of Ragusa, Modica, Scicli and Noto, plus the chance to sample the superb regional cuisine and wine.
