Sicily and Greece 2023

We start with three days in Rome with nothing planned but wandering the neighborhoods, seeing great art and eating well. Then all day on the train to Sicily, including a ferry crossing to the island (yes, on the train). 

Our tour takes us to Palermo, Agrigento, Syracuse, Mt. Etna, Taormina and Catania. We’re looking forward to seaside villages, hill towns, Roman mosaics, Greek ruins and lots of surprises.

Then we fly to Athens and take a cruise around Greece--Thessaloniki, Ephesus (Turkey), Crete, Santorini, Mykonos, Milos, back to Athens for a couple days. We’re in search of ancient Greeks and the Minoans before them, whitewashed villages, dramatic beaches.
