Western Sicily, Crossroads of Civilisations

Western Sicily holds the traces of Phoenician traders, Greek colonies, Arab courts, Norman kings and maritime communities still connected to North Africa. From Palermo's mosaics and markets to the temples of Segesta, Selinunte and Agrigento, the journey follows the island's western and southern edge through a sequence of powerful landscapes. Erice, Marsala and Mazara del Vallo add wine, craft and cross-Mediterranean culture, creating a route with particular appeal for archaeology, history and food-focused travel.
