West Sicily boasts some of the most varied coastlines with beautiful coves, rugged cliffs and deep blue waters. Cycle on undulating to hilly and sometimes flat terrain and enjoy magnificent temple ruins, romantic salt pan lagoons, some nice climbs and excellent food wine in one of the villages and towns along the way. Don’t miss out on the spectacular sunsets that you can enjoy from your seafront hotels or on the beach after a refreshing afternoon swim in the Med. If you travel in the summer months plan an extra day for visiting the wonderful island Favignana off Trapani’s coast and make sure you visit the vibrant street markets in Palermo before heading off!

Secret South Sicily Biking Tour
This is one of our most popular Bike Tours in Sicily, and if you spend two weeks on the island you can add our Best of the West tour and get the most out of your stay in Italy’s southernmost region.
Sicily’s South-East is all about Baroque opulence, amazing food, wonderful back roads lined with typical dry-stone walls and panoramic views galore. Enjoy a laid back holiday on two wheels in one of Sicily’s most beautiful corners. This is the home of the TV Inspector Montalbano and you may well recognise some spots and the Mediterranean atmosphere if you are a fan of the commissario.
Countryside and coastal cycling
Cycle past carrob trees, citrus and olive groves and take in the views of the beautiful Sicilian countryside before approaching the coast with its extensive sand dunes and lovely bays with crystal clear blue water.
