When planning our trip to Key West, we had a decision to make early on- do we fly into Key West or do we drive into Key West?
No matter how we looked at it, there were pros and cons associated with each. While we ultimately decided to fly into Fort Lauderdale and make the drive in, we thought we’d take a look at all of the reasons why you may (or may not) want to fly or drive!
It is hard to beat Sicilian food, and when exploring the island, you really have your work cut out for you with all the delicious dishes to try.
While there are far more than 10 iconic foods you must try in Sicily, these were a few of our favorites that we would order again and again. So do not miss these foods (and some recommended spots to try them) here!
When it comes to picking Sicily hotels for your visit, the logistics you need to consider are not simply looking for the best properties, booking them, and calling it a day.
The best way we can answer the question of “where to stay in Sicily?” is with another question- “how much time do you have?” The reason for this is because your Sicily hotels selection may be greatly influenced by your trip length above any other consideration.
It was for us!
If you are planning to spend any amount of time in eastern Sicily, the presence of Mount Etna looms large. From Catania to Taormina and further, the volcano is visible from great distances.
Naturally, if you’re like us, you’ll want to head up it to get a closer look. For those who are the most adventurous, perhaps even take a hike on an old lava flow.
This is what we did during our journey up Mount Etna, and while you can see quite a surreal and barren landscape here, you’ll do well to plan ahead before tackling any trails. Hiking on a volcano is unlike anything we’ve ever done!
