Geotoura – Hotel concept

When we include a hotel in our programme, it is not only a high standard of quality that is important to us. We prefer typical local accommodation, often boutique hotels with a special ambience. They emphasise the character of an individual trip: Panoramic views, particularly lovely furnishings, a location in historic centres, no mass tourism and, of course, exceptionally friendly hosts – these are important criteria for us.

We divide our hotels into four separate Geotoura categories. Of course, you have the choice and can also combine the categories on one trip.

Boutique Hotels – Four categories

Encantador (“Charming”): Our most affordable option. Lovingly furnished rooms that offer everything the discerning traveller expects.

Especial (“Special”): Hotels with a special ambience – historic palaces, monasteries, haciendas or beach hotels with exceptional charm. Perfect for the classic cultural tour.

Extraordinario (“Extraordinary”): Luxurious hotels in excellent locations and with the highest level of comfort, often in centuries-old aristocratic palaces, old oil mills or haciendas.

Luna de Miel (“honeymoon”): For the honeymoon – span. Luna de miel – or if you want to treat yourself to something out of the ordinary …

Character of this travel idea

On this 14-day tour of Sicily, take the time to immerse yourself in the history of the island as well as its picturesque landscapes. Be it on a hike along the coast or around the majestic Mount Etna. On a round trip in a hire car, you can travel at your own pace and decide for yourself where you would like to spend more time.

Experience culture

Our 14-day tour of Sicily takes you to the centres of Baroque architecture. In addition to Ragusa, get to know Noto and Modica with its impressive Cathedral of San Giorgio and the pretty baroque palazzi and find out what sweet temptation Modica is known for. A tip: you will find what you are looking for in the city’s numerous confectioneries.

Experience nature

The Etna region undoubtedly offers the most fascinating natural spectacle during your 14-day tour of Sicily. In the valleys, you will stroll through lush green meadows and forests; vines, citrus fruits and olive groves make up the landscape on the mountain slopes. In contrast, the higher areas with their steaming crevices appear almost unreal and bizarre. Prepare to get goose bumps – and not just because of the cooler temperatures at 2,500 metres.

You will hardly be less astonished when exploring the coast, which stretches for more than 1,000 kilometres and is dotted with breathtaking beaches, hidden coves and steep cliffs. The region around Taormina attracts visitors with the famous beaches of Isola Bella and Giardini-Naxos, while the coast of San Vito lo Capo in the north-west will impress you with its crystal-clear water and fine sand.

Sicily's culinary delights

The culinary history of Sicily is complex. The influence of numerous cultures can still be seen in the dishes today – the result of numerous foreign dominations. Pasta, olive oil, cheese, wine and confectionery are a natural part of the menu, as they are throughout Italy.

The traces of diverse traditions can still be felt everywhere here. For example, couscous, which originated with the Arabs, is served with fish. Almonds, honey, pine nuts and sultanas are not only used in confectionery, but also in pasta dishes. Rice, exotic spices, peppers and potatoes – products introduced from the New World – are also an integral part of Sicilian cuisine. Travelling through Sicily is therefore also a culinary journey through its history.

The authentic Sicily

Get to know a traditional Sicilian craft in Caltagirone. The “town on three hills” is considered the island’s ceramic capital and offers over 80 workshops and shops where you can often look over the shoulders of the artists. You can discover the flavours of Sicily by visiting a winery and tasting the sun-kissed wines.

That was my first organised round trip. The destination was Sicily. Geotoura chose a great selection of cities and hotels for me. Each hotel had its own charm. I would always use Geotoura again to plan a trip.

We had 12 very varied days in Sicily and were always looking forward to the next accommodation, because each one was special! The personal advice from Geotoura was very helpful and they were great at catering to our wishes. Thank you!

We had not imagined Sicily to be so beautiful. Of course the weather was on our side, pleasantly warm in October, sea 26°, great food, interesting cities and small hotels with a lot of flair. We were able to book a great trip with Geotoura despite only 2 weeks' notice.

Geotoura put together a fantastic round trip with great hotels, so that we could spend a carefree and relaxing time. Sicily is really worth a visit, and this was certainly not the last time we travelled with Geotoura.

A thoroughly enjoyable holiday in a magnificent country with many places of interest and even more opportunities to relax. The planning was perfect – never boring and never too much. Great hotels where we would have liked to stay longer. I don't need to say a word about Sicilian cuisine! I can imagine coming back!

Dr. Tilman W.

We (a married couple) were on a round trip with Geotoura for the first time, and certainly not for the last. Everything went perfectly on our Sicily round trip, the accommodation was fantastic with just one small exception, the route was perfect and exactly what we had imagined. It was a great holiday!

We were once again delighted with the Sicily trip, which we were able to experience thanks to the great organisation of Geotoura. We think it's a fantastic idea to bind the accompanying material as a book!

Ullrich K.
Germany
The round trip through Sicily's landscape, history and cuisine was a great success. We enjoyed our very personalised trip and were once again able to benefit from the “local knowledge” of our travel partner Geotoura. The route with the selected locations, the hotels and residences made it easy for us to quickly get into relaxation and discovery mode. Now if only all Sicilian drivers would drive reasonably well… It was simply perfect! The staff on site went to a lot of trouble.
