Car Rental in Sicily
General Information about Sicily
Sicily is an island on the southern tip of Italy. It is separated from the mainland region of Calabria by the 5 km (3 miles) Straits of Messina. It is a rugged and attractive island full of art, history, archeology, folklore and breathtaking scenery. Sicily is a crossroads for populations who were completely different from one another and have all left permanent traces of themselves in the island’s culture, for that reason it is a unique place.
