Sicily
The former Greek epicentre of Sicily offers up miles of lava fields at the base of brooding Mount Etna and walks among the gods in Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples dating back to 510 BC. But it’s the winding shopping streets of Taormina, with its volcano views and theatre, that dip visitors’ toes into the everyday lives of the island’s Grecian past.
