Private tours and day trips from Trapani

Seven places within reach of Trapani, from a walled town on a mountaintop to a Greek temple in open country and a white-sand bay at the tip of the province. Each one is a private day for your party only, planned around what you want to see.

The old town of Trapani on its narrow promontory, with the sea on both sides
  1. A stone archway over a cobbled lane in Erice, with a studded wooden door to one side, a small painted shrine above the arch and a figure walking towards the shops beyond

    Above the Gulf of Trapani

    Erice

    A walled town on a mountaintop, reached by cable car or a road of switchbacks. Cobbled lanes, courtyards, pastry shops, and a view that runs from the salt pans out to the Egadi islands.

  2. A windmill with a red cap standing among the Trapani salt pans, pink and ochre basins in front of it and mountains under a dark sky

    Just south of Trapani

    Shallow basins, windmills and white salt mounds on the edge of the city, inside a nature reserve with Erice rising behind.

  3. The Doric temple at Segesta seen from above, standing alone among green fields and trees, with visitors gathered at its base

    Inland Trapani

    Segesta

    A Doric temple standing alone in open countryside, never finished, and a Greek theatre cut into the hill above it looking out over the valley. Few sites in Sicily are this quiet.

  4. The sun low over the salt pans at sunset, a windmill in silhouette beside the shallow basins with mountains along the horizon

    Stagnone lagoon

    Marsala & Salt Pans

    Shallow pans, windmills and salt heaped under terracotta tiles along the Stagnone lagoon — and behind it the town that gave its name to the wine.

  5. The Baroque façade and dome of the cathedral of Mazara del Vallo above a seafront lined with palms and pines

    South coast

    Mazara del Vallo

    A fishing port with an Arab-era Kasbah of tiled alleys, and a Greek bronze satyr brought up from the seabed by its fishermen.

  6. Shallow turquoise water with bathers along a curve of pale sand, and a high rocky headland rising at the far end of the bay

    North-west cape

    San Vito Lo Capo

    A wide crescent of pale sand under Monte Monaco, at the far tip of the province, with the drive out along the coast worth as much as the arrival.

    Duration 9 hoursFrom €247

  7. Palermo cathedral seen from its forecourt, with the dome, the arcaded stone porch, palm trees along the side and visitors crossing the square

    Day trip east

    Palermo & Monreale

    The Norman capital, its markets and its layers of empire — and above it Monreale, whose cathedral interior is covered wall to ceiling in gold mosaic.
