Sicily
 
I am planning my honeymoon to Sicily at the end of the beginning of November 2001. We plan to fly into Catania and spend a few days in Taormina. From there we would like to go to Agrigento, Palermo, adn Cefalu. Any idea how long it takes to drive from Taormina to Agrigento? <BR> <BR>thanks for your help!

Good mornilng, Bridgette <BR>mileage from Agrigento to Palermo is 124 km from Palermo to Cefalu is approx 68 km. Sicily is small, has a fairly good highway system and only sightseeing along the route delays the trip. <BR>PS don't forget Villa Casale.... <BR>Soicily has two major airports, one <BR>Palermo about 30km west of the city <BR>and Catania about 5km outside the city. <BR>Really there would not be out of mind <BR>to make Cefalu a stop on the way to <BR>Palermo or could drive due north out of Agrigento to Termini Immerese and turn <BR>right to Cefalu and then return to <BR>Palermo.

Hey Richard Brigitte is asking how long it takes to drive from Taormina to Agrigento. <BR>I am interested in driving distances too but your post made this more confusing.
