What people love about touring Sicily solo
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily 6 days
We had a great experience. The history and culture of Sicily is amazing. Our tour guide, Vittoria, was very knowledgeable and interesting. She certainly loves Sicily. The hotels and food exceeded our expectations.
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
Sicilian Secrets - Mini Tour of Sicily 5 days
- Sicilian Secrets – Tour of Sicily & Aeolian Islands
Placido was a great guide, knowledgeable & well organised with much patience! The hotel in Catania was the least desirable of all of them but there were a couple of above average ones (Agrigento & Taormina). Food options & quality varied a bit also. Nothing was terrible but some were very average. The pace of the tour was quite fast but I’m glad we were able to see so much of Sicily - the architecture & history was amazing! For the cost ( I utilised the single supplement to have a room of my own) I think the tour was good value for money - there’s no way I could do that much any other way. It might be a good idea to alert people that they may pay up to €30 extra per person per day for admission costs. I didn’t think the extra was exorbitant but some people like to factor that into their costs.
What our customers ask about Sicily Tours for Solo Travelers
What is the typical cost of single supplements on Sicily Islands tours?
The cost of having your own room on Sicily tours ranges from $290 to $450. This price varies based on when you travel and the hotels used. You'll stay in 4-star properties such as Mercure Palermo Centro and Il Principe Hotel in Catania. Some tour companies help match solo travelers with roommates to avoid the extra cost. The supplement includes private rooms in well-located hotels throughout the trip.
How easy is it to meet other travelers as a solo participant on Sicily Islands tours?
Group activities naturally bring travelers together on Sicily tours whether at wine tastings in Marsala's Florio Cellars or during cooking classes in Taormina. Hotels like Ariston in Taormina and Livingston in Syracuse provide comfortable spaces where guests often gather. Groups usually include 8 to 12 travelers making it easy to get to know everyone. A TourRadar traveler shared: "We had a group of 8 that all got on so well which made the tour even more memorable."
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. Statistics show that 35% of solo travelers book their trips in September and October. These months also offer better rates at popular hotels like Ariston in Taormina and Garibaldi in Palermo.
What safety considerations should solo travelers keep in mind in Sicily Islands?
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. Hotel staff at places like Mercure Palermo Centro can point you toward safe areas to explore. 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. From bases like Hotel Garibaldi in Palermo you can easily venture into nearby historic areas. 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."
