1 La Bella Sicilia Mini Ancient Sicily and the dreamy Aeolian islands A distinct yet indescribable island, Sicily has withstood centuries of tyranny and upheaval to emerge as a vital and varied cultural region. Contained by the Mediterranean s largest island, Sicily s soil and architecture reveal layer after layer of intriguing history and rule by Arabs, Greeks, Romans, Saracens, French, Spanish, and Bourbons. Home to some of the finest examples of Greek architecture in the world, Sicily is an archaeologist s paradise. Focusing on the lush green spectacle in springtime and on the vast golden stage in autumn, this itinerary pedals the southern and northeastern tips of the island to areas overlooked by the masses. We begin in the ceramic town of Caltagirone, then, via olive groves and tiny mountain villages, we reach Ibla and follow the route to Siracusa, a Greek town filled with archaeological treasures.

3 DAY 1 CALTAGIRONE Daily Mileage - 10 miles Riding Terrain - Rolling Hotel - Villa S. Mauro Location: Caltagirone Duration: 1 Night Website: hotel/nh-caltagirone-villasan-mauro Meals - L, D DAY 2 CALTAGIRONE TO RAGUSA Daily Mileage - 50/53 miles Riding Terrain - Three major climbs Hotel - Antico Convento dei Cappuccini Location: Ragusa Duration: 2 Nights Website: anticoconventoibla.it/en/ antico-convento-hotel/ Today, take our group shuttle at 11:30 a.m. at Catania Airport and meet us at the hotel around 1 p.m. for a light lunch and introductions, followed by a warm-up ride. Caltagirone is located on three hillocks and was completely rebuilt in 1693 after a terrible earthquake. Nowadays it possesses all the characteristics of a 17 th -century Baroque Sicilian town. It s famous for azulejos (Spanish-style glazed tiles) used to embellish the fronts of local houses, and for its pottery. In fact, the name Caltagirone comes from the Arabic language and means Castle of (ceramic) jars. It s also the birthplace of the Christian Democratic party, as it was here that its founder, Don Luigi Sturzo, was born. The 4-star Villa S. Mauro is a quiet, modern hotel on the outskirts of town. Its large lovely rooms offer all the great amenities and features a classic foyer, great bar and a private pool. After an easy start, the traffic-less road begins to undulate and has three major climbs; the last part is almost completely downhill before entering Ragusa, a city in which urban expansion, fortunately, has not ruined the character of its 18 th -century neighborhoods. In the afternoon, we reach the fascinating Ragusa Ibla (the lower and older part of town), a vestige of the Baroque period. From the restoration of the Ancient Capuchin Covent, in the core of the Gardens of Ragusa Ibla, this concept-hotel has seen the light, offering the travellers the exclusive experience of lodging in a convent, of relax and natural wellness. When you stay here, you get the chance to plunge into a unique atmosphere in an authentic dimension. Meals - B, D DAY 3 RAGUSA LOOP TO DONNAFUGATA AND SCICLI Daily Mileage - 46 miles Riding Terrain - Hilly Hotel - See Day 2 We start today s ride with a pleasant downhill descent toward the coast. We stop at the beautiful Villa Donnafugata, the rural summer vacation house of the Arezzo family, featured in many movies by the most important italian directors. Then we continue among carob trees and greenhouses to reach the seaside village of Marina di Ragusa, perfect spot for a swim and lunch. After lunch we climb back through the valley with great views of the Irminio river canyon. In the evening we enjoy a walking tour of ancient Ragusa Ibla. Dinner is on your own tonight.

We continue on to Siracusa: founded by Greek settlers in the 8 th -century BC, Siracusa grew into an economic and political center in the Mediterranean and as such, engaged in frequent struggles. With sufficient historical background, the archaeological sites come alive. Siracusa s famous 3 rd -century BC Greek theater the largest in Italy offers a breathtaking view. In the evening, we dine at an authentic Sicilian restaurant where we get our first taste of some local specialties. Offering a rooftop terrace and glass elevator with sea views, the 5-star Grand Hotel Ortigia is located on the natural island of Ortigia. Rooms are spacious and offer free Wi-Fi access, a flat-screen TV, and air conditioning. The spa is also friendly and welcoming. Bike in one of Sicily s most fascinating archaeological reserves and nature sites. Today s highlight is a pleasant ride on quiet roads with the impressive Mount Etna right in front of us. The area of our ride was involved in WW II; military memorials, cemeteries and bunkers dot our tiny road en route to the former Italian navy base of Brucoli. We ll be shuttled to our hotel at the base of Mt. Etna with a private bus. Tonight, a musical surprise will showcase the genuine Sicilian spirit and way of life that make the inhabitants of this island so warm and welcoming! Set in a little village at the foot of Mount Etna, the 4-star Villa Paradiso dell Etna allows you to stay in a real Sicilian villa. Opened in 1929 and once frequented by renowned artists and writers, Villa Paradiso has been elegantly restored and decorated. All rooms have panoramic views of the gardens or Mount Etna. The villa boasts a cordial and helpful staff, piano bar, panoramic roof garden, wine cellar, outdoor pool, and much more! The 6-day tour concludes in the afternoon after a hike up Mount Etna to absorb the magnificent views of the volcanic area. On a clear day, you can see all of Sicily.
