Richard, <BR> <BR>Do you know of any quality tours, maybe an academic one, of Sicily? <BR>We would like to go next April . Hope that Giubelium madness doesn't extend that far south, though. <BR> <BR>Thanks

Michele, <BR>CIT run several Sicily tours. There are a few 8 days ones and a 2 week archaeological tour, which I did a few years ago and can highly recommend.

Hi! We stayed at one of the Best Westerns 1 1/2 years ago - SUPERB hotel, one of the best we ever encountered in Italy. Can't remember the name (Hotel Centrale I think ?????), but it was only a 5 min walk down the street that passes the Palazzo dei Normanni and then the Cathedral.
