What people love about touring Sicily solo
- Explore Southern Sicily
We loved our Sicily tour!!! We had a wonderful guide, Luca who was helpful even beyond our time with him as we left Sicily and moved on to mainland Italy. The accommodations were good and the food delish! We will be using them again!
- 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.
Everything was very well organised, we appreciated Hotel's choice and especially food! Sicily was a big surprise, a special word for Valeria, always kind and answering all our requests. I will recommend this tour to all my friends Ben & Jane

How easy is it to meet other travelers as a solo participant on Sicily Islands tours?

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.

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.
