Good day gentlemen.

I am currently planning a trip this summer to Sicily with my other half and wondered if any of well travelled souls could pass on useful information.

We are provisionally spending a week in Gole Alcantara (just west of Taormina) and then a further week in Cefalu. I am, however, open to suggestions on destinations if others feel passionately.

What I would very much appreciate is recommendations on sights and eating/drinking establishments.

Many thanks
David.

If you are in Taormina then you should visit Catania and Siracusa. Siracusa in particular is a real gem. In Catania, for lunch, go to the fish market there are several resaurants right in the market which are excellent.

In Palermo is a nice shop with famous hats and ties.

It is Pustorino on the via Maqueda.
