Okay, what do you REALLY need to eat in Trapani? Put couscous alla trapanese on your list, as well as a Pinsa Siciliana. And definitely a cornetto with pistachio filling. And, and, and… I could go on, but which restaurants and bars can you experience all these delicious things at? I’d love to give you tips for food and drink in Trapani.
Trapani is a port city in western Sicily. Almost every travel guide sends you to Trapani to make day trips to other places from there. But Trapani itself…
Finished exploring downtown Málaga? Then, it’s time to leave the city behind and discover the surrounding area. Hike the King’s Path (Caminito del Rey) or take a day trip to Antequera, Ronda, or Córdoba. There’s plenty to do in the area around Málaga!
Hot. Blazing hot. And dry. Bone dry. And yet, Favignana, one of the Egadi Islands near Sicily, has quite the appeal. The warm wind and many small bays attract day-trippers from Trapani to Favignana. Actually, you can easily spend more time on Favignana to get to know the island better.
Maybe you’ve heard of Marsala wines, and that’s why you want to visit Marsala in Sicily. But even if you’re not a connoisseur (like me), you can certainly visit this town on the westernmost tip of the island. I’d love to tell you what you can do in Marsala.
Antequera, the crossroads of Andalusia – a crossroads that many people skip. The impressive rock formations of Torcal de Antequera do attract visitors, but most people quickly move on after seeing them. What a shame! Because the town of Antequera has so much more to offer. Visit the Moorish fort, the wolves of Antequera, or the Spanish dolmens: Dólmenes de Antequera.
Erice is a remarkable town. It’s located right next to Trapani in western Sicily, on top of Mount San Giuliano. At the summit, you’re standing at 2,460 feet (750 meters) above sea level, which promises (and delivers!) breathtaking views. Erice is cozy, sometimes fairytale-like, and easy to explore on foot.
The famous Mirador de Es Vedra lookout point on Ibiza has permanently closed. It has fallen victim to the hordes of tourists who caused disturbances there. This means you can no longer access Atlantis either (though that was already difficult to reach).
