Is Sicily Italy’s Best Kept Secret? We are sharing our First Impressions of Sicily as we experience the chaos of taking the ferry to Sicily, then visiting the ancient hilltop towns of Taormina and Castelmole. We meet some charming locals, hike the Sentiero Dei Saraceni and fall in love with this Mediterranean Island.

WHO ARE WE?
We are Nigel and Sue, a couple of outdoor adventurers. After living in a van travelling around Australia for 3.5 years on our big lap, we’ve moved to Europe, bought a new van and we’re now exploring the highlights and hidden gems of this continent. Join us for all the history and culture of Europe along with the day to day realities of living in a van.

Great stuff lads. In general – It would be great to see more about the van and the various park ups so we can all get a good sense of the various parking spots. I suppose that's why a lot of us are here – so we can follow in your tyre tracks. Loving it all though, fair play to you both
Next door Neighbour is Malta 🇲🇹 my Homeland ❤ thanks for sharing guys

Awesome. Thanks so much 👍🇦🇺
Really fantastic as usual, love your travels and commentary. Thanks Bill Mc
Just gorgeous! Thanks for taking us for a walk up and down. Such amazing scenery!!
Ciao Sue & Nige!👋 Loved this trip down memory lane… Sicily is an absolute fave! Can’t wait to return ❤
Great hike and amazing scenery…love every moment
Walking all that way just amazing love your videos and the scenery is breathtakingly beautiful!🌠🩵🫶🏼
Sicily is amazing! Thank you.
Incredible views. No way I could walk up there 😳
WOW! Absolutely beautiful views and the town looked so pretty at night. You two must sleep well at night after the hikes you do! Thank you again for the videos, I love them.
Taormina has to be one of our favourite places we visited when driving around Sicily.
If you get the chance quad bike on Mt Etna just amazing and visit the Catacombs in Palermo. Enjoy 😊
THANKYOU
Sicily is just so beautiful. This is the beginning of more and more beautiful scenes. I cannot wait to go back.
Hi Nigel and Susie, wow thank you once again taking this on this adventure before dementia absolutely Beautiful and pictures, Unfortunately will be no good to me considering I have one leg bit hard walking up those stairs all the time but thanks for taking this on your journey from Australia
😂😂😂 What is more chaotic than chaos? = a "disorganised chaos"! 😂😂😂 Super gr8! 😂😂😂
Actually the only place where the ancient Greeks managed to be united was in the south of Italy, with their Magna Grecia. Therefore you find there amazing rest of their culture, which was what the Romans inherited!
Gorgeous video as usually. I love the way you put them together: a bit of personal impression, the story of the places, n the spectacular shooting! Such a gr8 work! I love it! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Taormina is pronounced correctly ‘Tah-orr-mee-nah’ not ‘Tay…’.
Beautiful vlog. Thanks so much for sharing your journey
Another fantastic video. What wonderful memories you’re making!
You two are awesome, I am just loving your videos,,
They will be so helpful to me or anyone wishing to travel
Now don’t laugh , but my big worry, fear is finding the toilets , are they hard to find
I would love to do those walks , but I get anxiety , because I don’t know we’re I could find them 🥴🤦♀️🤣
I would never be able to have drinks or food lol
Look forward to our next adventure 🤭🤣
Stay safe 🤗
Funny for a European to read Sicily as "Italy's best kept secret" considering it is a popular Summer tourist destination.
Interessante ed emozionante ascoltare i vostri commenti durante il viaggio in Italia, il mio paese
Guys what’s going on, it was 10 mins in before you had an aperitivo, you’re gonna have to lift your game 😂
I was so glad to see your video of Sicily. What a beautiful place you visited. Again your drone pics and photos are wonderful. A true travel video. ❤
Why don't you come down to Syracuse, Noto, Ispica, Modica anymore?
Wonderful vlog, thanks
Wonderful Taormina and Etna are just amazing as is the while of Sicily.
Qui in Romagna se un turista ha bisogno o si trova in difficoltà a conprendere qualcosa lo si aiuta senza chiedere mance in cambio. Brutta abitudine quella di dare una mano in cambio di soldi, abitudine che non appartiene al romagnolo.
Hi. Have U heard abot the EES system lately..???
the first video, i have seen from you, but not the last 🙂 great video thank you
I have to admit, I was worried there for a while that your van and Franchesto would be gone when you back lol. Loved it all. highlight for me was walking in the evening seeing all those shops and gorgeous lights <3 Fascinated also about Holafly, always annoying messing with sim cards and connecting to its service.
Just stunning. And what a view as a reward for all that hiking up a mountain.
Was that Vegemite for brekkie?
TFS Holafly tip & link!
Loving Sicily looking forward to next vlog 😊
Gosh guys you two must be fit! But my goodness I’ve never seen such beauty. I hope more people find your videos because they are brilliant guys. 😊
Beautiful video , thanks for sharing your amazing travelling experience , loved Sicily
Great video👍
Looks lovely. How have you found driving with the van? If I remember my Italian small towns, the streets are really narrow.
Once again a great blog.
Thanks for putting us onto AllTrails. We are using it while travelling in Tasmania. It’s taken us to some awesome walks.
PS I haven’t seen a devil yet.
Hi guys, another great video, well done. My wife is from the Messina region so really enjoyed this video. Can I ask, are you happy with the Pocket 3 camera? Thinking of getting one for our channel too. Keep up the good work (fella Aussies here).😀
Amazing footage we feel like we’re there with you. Keep up your spectacular travels and videos 🫶
Hi Nigel and Sue, another top video, stunning scenery and such a beautiful place to visit. Thank you again for sharing your travels. Stay safe and enjoy Coen and Jay
Hello from Villa San Giovanni. Hope you enjoy the South of Italy. Bienvenuto.
Bloody Amazing, WoW! Go Aussies! Fellow Aussie/Tassie!
Francesco seems like an enterprising kind of guy 😉
Did the other 🚐 camp in the car park overnight?
Hi guys, we are trying to find an equalivant to supercheap auto in Germany. We are not there yet, arrive April. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated. We have bought a car in Germany but need some accessories.
Wow your videos are amazing but the last couple of eps have been such amazing scenery. You guys are so adventurous. Love it!
I'm an expat living in Sicily, and it's always lovely to see people enjoying this wonderful island. Cheers!
