Buon giorno!
I and my husband will stay in Noto in September (for one week). Advice me, please, how we can go to Palermo for one day: in the morning - there, in the evening - back. How many it will cost?
Grazie!
Hmmmn, look at www.trenitalia.com . You will see that the trip by train is at least 6 hours each way, with at least two connections. Noto is on the other side of Sicily from Palermo, and the connections aren't good...so a day trip by train won't work...
I read that often bus service is better in Sicily than rail (the opposite is true in the rest of Italy)...you might look at http://slowtalk.com/eve/ubb.x/a/tpc/f/862600685/m/28010547221?a=tpc&cdra=Y&s=759607521&m=28010547221&f=862600685 for a listing of bus companies that operate in Sicily, and see if you can get a better arrangment that way...

Tnank you!
Sitting on the Mt Etna, wind blowing, Sun is shining, landscape is like in the moon...
MtEtna is a must place to visit for sure. To the top is a bus connection last 500 meters, but it costs awful amount of Liras. I recommend to walk up there, it should take a hour or so, but the views on the way are astonishing! Up there is a souvenir shop and cafeteria. Prices has a Etna-extra, but still reasonable.

No visit to a Sicilian city is complete without time spent exploring the market and Syracuse is no exception. Make your way past the inevitable stalls of cheap goods being sold by (mostly) immigrants, it's the fresh produce that's the real attraction here - stall after stall of fantastic fish and seafood so fresh you can almost see it twitching still, vegetables that look as though they've come straight from the garden to the market and fruit that still has the smell of the orchard and orange grove about it.
Bring a bag with you and pick up some goodies as you pass through - lumpy, bumpy tomatoes that you know will taste of the sun that ripened them; a handful of fresh herbs - basil and parsley, pungent and aromatic , the perfect accompaniment to a round of creamy fresh ricotta; shiny plump black olives; a punnet of golden apricots; a loaf of flour-dusted crusty bread. Visit the marvellous shop at the end of the market street, down near the bridge to try before you buy some delicious pancetta and spicy salami, a bottle of peppery olive oil, a slab of sharp pecorino and some creamy gorgonzola. How about a bottle of good red to go with it all? There you have it - a lunch fit for the gods.
