    I convinced my wife to travel to Sicily from the US because of your videos. We LOVED Taormina and Cefalu. Agrigento not so much, but we lived it up in Sicily. Even got paninis from your friend in Taormina and a lot of pistachio gelato. Cheers!

    As an Italian but not a Sicilian I have no problem saying that Sicily is the most beautiful region of Italy, it has everything, Greek, Phoenician, Roman, Norman, Arab testimonies, high volcanoes, spectacular archipelagos, small picturesque villages that would overshadow the most famous ones. positano, Amalfi or Sorrento. And unfortunately I think it is the 10th most visited region in Italy

    Have been to Italy 10x, and Florence is my fave(you did a GREAT job there). Just got back from AMAZING Catania, and have to say, it was as good as Florence. The duomo, the medieval streets and vibe, cheap and great pizza. It even has an every day outdoor market that rivals Milan. Messina is a working class town with little to do, but the 3 euro, 20 min ferry to Calabria was awesome, museum and best gelato in Italy, Cesare, 3.50 for 3 scoops!

    I've been to Sicily many times since I have family in Noto and Avola and love going to visit and touring around. I have to say that I've been to Modica twice & I think the chocolate is awful and would not go back. You didn't mention Caltagirone which is famous for tile. Ortigia island next to Syracusa - both are beautiful. Taormina is a must see, I stayed there once for 2 weeks! I thought Agrigento was a fascinating Roman playground and Portopalo is the southern most eastern tip of Sicily. I am eager to visit Cefalu and Palermo and Coreleones. Some of the Sicilian foods one must try, Arancini, nespole Italian fruit, figs, pasta con le sarde, Sicilian olives, espresso granita...enjoy

    You missed out Centuripe. I was there three days ago and have to say, hands down, one of the most beautiful mountain towns I’ve ever experienced. It’s a little out of the way but so worth it, with views of Etna and the surrounding hills. It’s simply jaw dropping, especially at sunset and sunrise.
