Mount Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe and a true icon of Sicily. This is your chance to venture either 1,900 or 2,900 metres above sea level to check out the lunar-like landscapes of the volcano's craters. You'll be driven from Taormina to Rifugio Sapienza, where – if you've chosen to go up to 2,900 metres – you'll switch to a cable car and 4x4 vehicle to reach the main crater for a guided walk and some epic views. If you opt to stay at 1,900 metres, there's free time to explore the nature trails around the Silvestri Craters, along with souvenir shops, cafés and a small museum that tells the story of the mountain's past. Either way, you'll want your camera for this one.

'We're going to make you an offer you can't refuse'. Nå ja, det er var jo tidligere et Mafia-land. Rent faktisk flyttede Hollywood til denne del af verden for at filme scenerne til Godfather-trilogien, så denne tur byder på to sicilianske bjerglandsbyer, der var med i filmene, hvor vi skal genoplive nogle af de mest berømte scener.Lidt som med spøgelsesbyer, er disse sicilianske landsbyer næsten efterladte nu om dage. Vi starter med den lille by Savoca, hvor vi finder kirken, som Al Pacinos karakter, Michael Corleone, blev gift i. Vi følger i hans fodspor, når vi går rundt i de snoede gader, og du kan også prøve den stol han sad i når vi besøger Bar Vitelli.Efter en tur gennem landskabet, kommer vi snart til middelalderlige Forza d'Agro, en lille bjerglandsby, hvor du kan se kirken Annuncation, også kendt via Godfather. Selvom du ikke er fan af filmene, er udsigten fra disse bjerglandsbyer helt fantastisk.

Panarea og Stromboli bådtur fra Taormina
De vulkanske øer Stromboli og Panarea er hovedingredienserne på denne heldagsudflugt. Vi udforsker disse smukke øer lige ud for Siciliens kyst, med masser af tid på egen hånd til at opleve seværdighederne i dit eget tempo og se den berømte aktive lavastrøm om aftenen.Vi sejler ud fra Milazzo havn mod øen Panarea, men først passerer vi de smukke bugter i Cala Junco og Cala Zimmari, hvor du kan se ud over de æoliske øer. Når vi kommer i land på Panarea, har du to timer på egen hånd - tag en svømmetur eller besøg den forhistoriske landsby Capo Milazzese, som du når til fods eller i en taxi. Derefter fortsætter vi hurtigt til det næste stop - Stromboli. Vi lægger til i havnen i Scari, hvorefter du har tre timer til at udforske øen, slå dig ned på en af restaurranterne eller nyde en aperitif, når solen går ned. Bagefter oplever du Moder natur på nærmeste hånd, når du ser den aktive lavastrøm, 'Sciara del Fuoco'.

Guidet udflugt om modstanden mod mafiaen i Corleone med frokost
Corleone var engang en by, der var berygtet for sine mafiaforbindelser, men i dag er den et fyrtårn for modstand og retfærdighed. Den panoramiske køretur gennem bjergene sætter scenen for en oplevelsesrig og oplysende dag. Vincenzo, en lokal specialistguide, siger: "Denne fascinerende og indsigtsfyldte tur er designet til at oplyse og afmystificere Hollywoods glamouriserede portræt af mafialivet og i stedet byder på et ægte indblik i den modige kamp mod organiseret kriminalitet. Dette er en vigtig udflugt for vores by." Først er der The Godfather's House Museum, en storslået bolig fra det 19. århundrede, der tager dig med på en rejse gennem tiden, hvor du kan udforske både mafiaens og antimafia-bevægelsens fødsel. Herefter kan du dykke dybere ned i denne komplekse historie på CIDMA Antimafia Museum, der huser en omfattende samling af dokumenter og udstillinger, der fortæller om den mørke fortid og den modige modstand mod mafiaen. Efter en udflugt gennem Corleones historiske gader bliver du kørt til en lokal restaurant nær det kongelige palads i Ficuzza, hvor du kan nyde en klassisk italiensk frokost omgivet af naturens skønhed. Til sidst kan du læne dig tilbage og slappe af på hjemrejsen til Cefalù, hvor du tager med dig en dybere forståelse af Corleones forvandling fra et mafiafæstning til et sted, som lokalbefolkningen er stolte af at kalde deres hjem, et sted med en fremtid fri for organiseret kriminalitet.
