PERFECT book for anyone going to Sicily. This line of travel books are the best wherever you may go.

Great Information

This book is the right size for taking it with you, and all the information you'll need for a successful visit. Lots of great photographs.

High Quality Book, Easy to Use, Great Pics & Illustrations

We've used these Eyewitness Travel books before and love them. They are great if you prefer a lot of pictures and illustrations instead of pages and pages of raw text.

New Fan of Rough Guides

This book was the single best tool to plan and execute a two week tour of Sicily. My wife and I were not only impressed with the maps of each city, but the tips on how to get to and from the airport or train stations was right on the money. We managed to secure lodging in each city very close to the train stations. This made our day as we traveled to 5 cities over the course of two weeks. I wish I would have consulted this book when the train operators were on strike. The rough guide even had the location and phone number for the bus line running from Palermo to Agrigento. Each of the lodging blurbs was accurate and we were able to stay in places we wanted for the price we wanted to pay. Times were accurate for sites such as the Valley of the Temples, or various Duomos. I really could go on and on. But if you are going to Sicily (or any other foreign place) and need a guide book, purchase the Rough Guide.

Another Helpful RoughGuide

We havent traveled to Sicily yet to put the book to its big test, but in planning for the trip it has been very helpful...telling us what to absolutely not miss, good places to stay and eat, and insider things off the beaten path.
