Welcome to Western Sicily and the historic island towns of Marsala, Trapani, Erice and Alcamo. This region of Italy has been influenced by the many peoples who have made it their home over the centuries: the Phoenicians and Romans, Arabs and Normans, Jews and Jesuits. Learn about the lasting legacies of these divergent cultures on a private Trapani tour with a friendly and knowledgeable local guide.

The old historic centre of Trapani is a lovely place to explore on foot and begin to learn the ancient history of Western Sicily. A car ride will take you up into the hills, where you can visit the medieval town of Erice, which sits spectacularly atop Mt Eryx. In Marsala, sample some of the sweet wines for which the region is famous, and walk along the imposing stone walls which fortified this city for many years against the Romans. And don't miss the island of Mozia, surrounded by sea-salt plains and picturesque windmills.
