A 4 day escape to Sicily as an optional addition after your Restore your Vitality Retreat in Tuscany, or an exquisite stand alone experience of the delights of this southern Italian island.
A morning Yoga practice will enliven your body, calm your mind and strengthen your spirit to take in the delights that await you when you explore this historic and remarkable part of Sicily. Siracusa was once considered the most important city in the empire of Ancient Greece. The peninsula of Ortigia is the central hub of the old city where fresh food markets are wonderful, restaurants are inviting and shopping is both colourful and elegant. There are many temples, museums, palaces, the Duomo and archaeological sites to explore.
A full day tour will take us to view and walk the living mountain of Mt Etna, an active volcano that looms large over Sicily – an incredible natural wonder where lava has flowed almost continuously for years. We then travel to the splendidly situated town of Taormina on the east coast of Sicily. Taormina is perched on a cliff overlooking the Ionian Sea – simply stunning. Its streets are picturesque and filled with interesting shops, lively bars and fine restaurants. The view of Mt Etna in the distance is breathtaking.

- Transfers to airport (if applicable) and hotel
