New Year's Eve Sicily Tour

Breakfast and today drive to the mountains and the surrounding sea that make Monte Pellegrino in Palermo a wonderful attraction to visit. Nestled in the shade of Monte Pellegrino visitors frequently take advantage of the green escapes of the large nature park that encircles the mountain proper. From Monte Pellegrino pictures can be taken of the whole of Palermo, the vast stretches of the Golden Shell Valley, or the rich blues of the Tyrrhenian Sea. You’ll get postcard worthy vistas and the perfect self-

portrait to share with the folks back home. Santa Rosalia has her sanctuary atop the mountain and she is credited with having saving the city from a deadly plague, and she is known to the locals as La Santuzza, or their “Little Saint”. She lived most of her life in a cave on the mountain, praying for the souls of the city after she retreated there in 1159. In 1624, her purported remains were uncovered, and they are housed in a small chapel built around her cave home. Transfer to the airport for your flight back to Malta.
