What people love about touring Sicily solo
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily 6 days
The tour guide, Placido, was excellent as well as the bus driver. They had good rapport with the group. We saw amazing sights, the accommodations were good, especially in Agrigento, and the commentary was good. Some things to improve: it should be highlighted that this is a WALKING tour and requires some mobility. We had three people who were challenged daily and the group was significantly slowed down as a result; also, there should be better communication between the tour company and cities and provinces about local events which might hinder the passage of the tour bus. (In our case it was a cycling race, which made it impossible to cross the road to our destination of Marsala and a wine tasting.) ; and finally, each day there were additional costs to get into sights. Each day it should be mentioned which places are optional and at what cost. We have already mentioned the tour to people we have met with good reviews but the above improvements would make it even better.
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily and Malta 11 days
The tour was very well organized and we couldn’t have had a better tour leader. Angelo was always very kind and patient and went above and beyond to be helpful. We saw quite a bit of Sicily in just one week. Hotels were ok, 4 star by Sicilian standards I guess. Included lunches were good for the most part. The included dinners were substandard. We had a great group which added to the enjoyment of the tour. It would be helpful to know hotels we are staying in more than 5 days before tour starts so we can book our own airport transfers which would have been less expensive. Also more attention needs to be paid to the small details. Didn’t affect me much since I am on top of everything but still had to deal with and correct the minor mistakes in my booking. All in all a good trip!
- Sicilian Secrets - Mini Tour of Sicily 5 days
Grazia was an amazing tour guide. She was knowledgeable and accommodating. The sights were amazing and the hotels were mostly wonderful. The tour is ambitious, for sure! I would say a person should be in decent shape and be prepared to walk and climb stairs. Dimensione Sicilia is a great tour with great value for the money. It was really the experience of a lifetime. Meeting fellow travellers is also lots of fun. I recommend this tour!
What our customers ask about Sicily Tours for Solo Travelers

Which areas of Sicily Islands are most welcoming for solo travelers?
The historic areas of Taormina Syracuse's Ortigia district and Palermo welcome solo visitors with easy-to-navigate streets outdoor cafes and vibrant evening life. Places like Hotel Livingston in Ortigia give you a central base for exploring. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "Ortigia was my favorite - the little island was very manageable and Hotel Livingston was fantastic. The view from our window was breathtaking and it was easy to explore independently."
What is the best time of year for solo travelers to visit Sicily Islands?
Plan your visit during spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) when the weather is mild and tourist spots are less crowded.

Solo travelers can feel secure in Sicily especially when traveling with a guided group. The main tourist areas of Taormina Catania and Syracuse offer well-lit streets and busy evening scenes.

One TourRadar traveler confirmed: "I felt completely safe throughout the trip even when exploring independently in the evenings."
How much free time do solo travelers get during Sicily tours?
Tours usually set aside 2-3 hours daily for personal exploration especially during evenings in cities like Taormina and Palermo.

A TourRadar traveler noted: "There was a good mix of organized activities and free time which allowed us to explore places of personal interest while still having the security of the group."
