Today, you’ll head south along the West Coast of Sicily, where an exciting highlight awaits. Bypass the hustle of Trapani for now and ride directly to the famous salt pans of Paceco for a coffee stop among the iconic windmills and pink salt flats.

From there, turn inland with your Vespa, riding through the hills, olive groves, and vineyards toward Marsala, the perfect place to spend your afternoon. Enjoy a delicious seafood lunch, shop for local specialties, and explore the charming, pedestrianized old town.

Looking for more adventure? On the road back toward the hotel, you can take a short ride out to Stagnone Lagoon, famous for its shallow turquoise waters and views of the ancient Phoenician island of Mozia. Stagnone is a peaceful spot with rugged natural beauty, perfect for watching kitesurfers catch the sea breeze.

Afterward, follow the coastal road northward. You can make a stop in historic Trapani to wander through its grand Baroque streets, grab a gelato, or pull off along the shore for a quick dip in the sea before heading up the mountain. Or, head straight back to the hotel to relax by the pool with its amazing sea views.

On this route, you’ll cruise toward one of the island’s greatest natural treasures: the Zingaro Nature Reserve (Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro). Make this your first stop to explore a pristine paradise of rugged cliffs, Mediterranean flora, and hidden coves like Cala Tonnarella dell’Uzzo.

Further along your journey, you’ll reach San Vito Lo Capo, famous for its iconic crescent beach and turquoise waters. Take a stroll through its lively streets, enjoy a delicious seafood lunch or an authentic Sicilian gelato, and soak in the laid-back beach vibe.

On the road back toward the hotel, you can take a scenic detour through historic Trapani. Wander through its grand Baroque streets, grab a coffee along the marina, or pull off along the shore for a quick dip in the sea before heading up the mountain.

On this day you can take a beach break whenever you like, the options along this stunning coast are endless. And don’t forget to bring your snorkel to explore the crystal-clear underwater world!

Today’s journey begins in the countryside at Segesta, one of the island’s most evocative archaeological sites. As you ride your Vespa through rolling hills and olive groves, the landscape opens up to reveal a majestic 5th-century BC Greek temple standing virtually untouched on a lonely hilltop. Nearby, an ancient amphitheater offers  panoramic views across the countryside all the way to the sea.

From the ancient hills, wind your way down toward the coast to Castellammare del Golfo. This lively seaside town is built around a horseshoe-shaped harbor guarded by a medieval Arab-Norman castle. Park your Vespa by the marina, enjoy a fresh seafood lunch at a waterside trattoria, and wander through the vibrant, sunlit streets.

For the extra adventure, you’ll follow the winding coastal road a bit further to Scopello. Famous for its historic Tonnara and dramatic faraglioni rising from turquoise waters, it’s one of the most breathtaking spots on the entire island to stop for a swim or a gelato before heading back to Erice.

Enjoy one final breakfast at the hotel before deciding how to continue your journey, whether you’re heading home or exploring more of Sicily, the choice is yours.

If you’d like a little more time on the Vespa, choose the Late Drop-Off option to keep it until 2 PM. Take it for one last farewell ride and soak in the beauty of the region before you say goodbye.
