Alicudi is in a world of its own; you are more likely to travel by mule than by car, and outside of the summer months you’ll be hard pressed to find another tourist wandering the peaceful streets. If you’re looking for vibrant nightlife or a lively shopping scene then you’re best off looking elsewhere, however, if your perfect day involves scaling a colourful and challenging terrain then Alicudi could be the ideal destination. Even if hiking and exploring isn’t your idea of the best way to spend a few days, it requires a fair amount of energy to discover all of Alicudi. The lack of cars, or any real transport, means that most places must be reached on two feet, though on a pleasant summer’s day, that isn’t the worst thing. After a tiring day in the sun, the only hotel on the island has a restaurant serving sumptuous seafood, which can be enjoyed before heading to bed.
Aristocrats reside in the baroque palaces whilst some streets are still being rebuilt after the second world war – Palermo is the epitome of a paradoxical city. Lying between Europe and Africa, a unique Mediterranean feel embodies the most visited area of Sicily; vintage wine stores are scattered around the quaint, narrow streets whilst the chapels and churches stand proud against the shrinking landscape. The Palazzo dei Normanni e Cappella Palatina, Santa Maria dell’Ammiraglio and Cattedrale di Palermo all exemplify the stunning architecture synonymous with Palermo. What makes the city so unique is the varied history it represents; all of the neighbouring countries and regions have occupied the land at one time. It is possible to enjoy Arabic food whilst looking at Norman towers, though the whole city remains unashamedly Italian. The streets buzz with locals selling authentic clothes and fresh food on the markets, whilst in the quieter regions the smell of some of the world’s best coffee often proves too tempting for most. Quite simply, Sicily is an Italian experience like no other
The public tram system is the prominent form of public transport around the city, though there are also taxis readily available.
