That's why I love my country: volcanic landscape, crystal clear sea with characteristic coasts in the south, breathtaking lakes and mountains in the north, hills and woods in the center, medieval towns and Renaissance cities, Greek, Roman and Etruscan archaeological sites ... but above all a lot of diversity and culture: the cuisine, the people and the appearance of the places change from north to south, from east to west. 🇮🇹❤️
Italy truly has it all! What part of Italy are you from?
@@RyanShirley Near Rome!
.

RP-hope i'll be there soon😍
Sicily is on another level 🌋🇮🇹
Just got back from Sicily and Calabria. Catania was the most pleasant surprise of my world travels. Medieval, friendly people, great churches and of course, Mt Etna
Greetings from Sicily. Of the videos I've seen around this is one of the best filmed, best color graded, and despite being short compared to others, incredibly informative. And I say all of this as a man from Catania.
Well done!
Thanks so much friend! That means the world, I love your island! I gotta come back for part 2! Where’s your favorite part of Sicily?
Wow finally one that is not all about food! Thanks for all the great information.
Of course! Sicily had some of the best pizza I’ve ever tried
Amazing Sicily!
Tonnara di Scopello is definitely one of the best places in Sicily. Very unique and calming.
Simple & effective. Great video.
I just did a Mediterranean tour and my favorite spots were all in Sicily Italy! Such an astoundingly beautiful place that I can’t stop thinking about!
So cool you visited the Mediterranean! Any other places you liked?
Hey Ryan, Thank you for sharing this great video with us love Italy. 🇮🇹 🤗
Thanks Cesar!
It's so beautiful ! Thank you Ryan Shirley for this amazing video.
Of course! What part of Sicily would you want to visit most?
@@RyanShirley Definitely Mount Etna and Catania 😍 but every other place mentioned is worth visiting. We live in a beautiful world its such a blessing.
Hi Ryan! This is really an amazing top 10 video of most beautiful places of Sicily! It's impossible to choose a favorite place because all PLACES ARE SO BEAUTIFUL! Great footage and video!!! 😍
Thanks so much Martin for all your support! I hope to see some videos from you in Sicily 😄🌋🇮🇹
"Non puoi spiegare la Sicilia con le parole...." You can't explain Sicily in words but you have to live it. Your video helps a lot with this. Thank you!
So beautiful!! I loved all those places!!🤩
Wish we stayed longer ☺️🇮🇹
I was born and raised in America, same as my parents. I’ve been learning more about my family and where I’m from. Turns out, this is where my grandmother is from!! It’s very nice being able to see more of where we come from. My grandma is an amazing person so I’m glad I feel more connected.
Another amazing video Ryan! It makes me even more excited to explore Sicily next year 😍
Thanks so much guys! Where do you want to visit most in Sicily?
@@RyanShirley Cefalu is a big one, one of my favorite Italian movies was filmed there. The valley of the temples I didn't know about but I definitely want to visit after watching your video.
Definitely a Dream Sailing arround for Weeks on this Beautiful places
You’ll the the time of your life!
Wow Ryan! Discovery channel should offer you job immediately! :)
This is another great video which gives hints for many reels and motivates me to visit Sicily as soon as possible.
Congratulations and keep going on!
Thanks so much Alek! That would be sweet to have a show with discovery! Where do you want to visit in Sicily?
@@RyanShirley-come and visit manila-philippines🇵🇭
I love sunsets too. I take walks on the waterline and listen to music when the sun is setting, especially at the Ocean. I Loved all of the sights
No greater feeling that having the sunset light on you near the water! You live up in the PNW right?
Yes Everett Washington @@RyanShirley
Great job, man! Love Sicily and can't wait to go back!!
Thanks so much Dan! Where was your favorite place in Sicily?
@@RyanShirley - Love the Aeolian islands. Just could stay there a long time. But honestly there are so many other great places in Sicily it's so hard to choose. Keep on doing great things, man!
Wonderful video! I have partial ancestry from Sicily-specifically Palermo. I enjoyed my trip to Cefalu and Palermo a few years ago! I have to return.
That’s awesome your ancestry is from there! Sicily is waiting for you
Your appreciation of my country Italy makes me proud ❤🇮🇹
Thanks so much Luca! What part of Italy are you from?
@@RyanShirley From Carrara in Tuscany, the city of the white marble
Absolutely, you should be proud of Italy, it’s full of history and unique architectures from Roman empires which inspired me to travel the grand tour of Italy started from Lake Como, down to Venice, Florence, Ferrara , Assisi, Pompeii, Sorento peninsular ended in Rome. Such a wonderful memories.
These videos always hit! Need to make my way around the globe like you🌏
Thanks so much mate! Where do you want to visit most?
@@RyanShirley looking to do an eastern Asia trip next year but booking a London/Manchester & Munich trip in September! Love the vids bro👍🏻
You are really seeing the Western Mediterranean in detail this year. I've only seen the east side of the island, mainly Catania and Syracuse. To me, Mt. Etna looks like everyone's idea of what a volcano should look like - just perfect.
That’s so cool you’ve been to the eastern side! Mt. Etna is such a wild volcano! Any plans to go back to Europe soon?
@@RyanShirley Not this year. This year is U.S. and Canada only. It's still a little up and down out there. My friend and his wife went to see Portugal and Spain. Tested clear before leaving, all vaccinated and boostered, too. They had Covid somehow when they arrived in Lisbon and spent two weeks in a hotel room. and then flew back.
So stunning man! Can't wait to check out Sicily next time I go to Italy!
So stoked your going! Where do you want to visit most?
"Sicilia bedda"❣Amazing video 🤩 "Siracusa" is very beautiful 🌟🌊⛱ La conosco molto bene ❤
Thanks so much! I love Siracusa too ☺️
Ryan great job, you mentioned some of our favorites spots!
Thanks so much! Are you living in Sicily now?
美しい景色です🏖
I love my etarnal love Sicily❤
Thank you. A well structured guide. I really liked the parts where you showed a map first.
Thanks so much James! 😁🇮🇹
Yes very much appreciated
Wow Ryan! I just watched all of your video because I am heading to Sicily for Easter. Of course, I had to look up for your video first! Beautifully done! Definitely very helpful!
Ah bro Im so jealous your going! What places do you think you want to visit? Some other places that I didn’t put in this video that are worth visiting are the Egadi Islands, Centuripe, and Enna
Another great video, Ryan! Your video makes me want to explore wonderful Sicily:) One of my best friends lives in Palermo:) Thank you Ryan! Best wishes from Indonesia ☺️
Thanks so much Justina! So cool your friend lives in Palermo, Sicily is waiting for you ☺️🏖🇮🇹

Ah bro that makes me so happy to hear! Where were some of your favorite places you visited?
I ♥️ Sicily ♥️♥️♥️
Such a incredible place!
Amo Sicilia 🇮🇹♥️🌋
Yo también ☺️
Your videos are just always amazing. I love this one, can't wait to go. Makes me want to learn Italian too, especially after The White Lotus, haha.
Thanks so much mate! I need to watch White Lotus, wasn’t it filmed in Sicily?
wow, Thanks mate . I am going there next week, cheers
You're going to have a amazing time!
Thanks for the great video. I will be in Italy next month, April. Looks like I definitely need to visit Sicily!
You’re going to have a incredible time!
thanks.... free and beautiful....love it so much...
Thanks so much friend!
Sicily is one of the most interesting place on the face of the earth. I want to see the Stromboli volcano at night while it is erupting.😍
It would be amazing to see the lava at night!
I love your video I’m off to Sicily in 2 weeks 👏 thanks for this helps a lot
Thanks so much! You’re going to have a amazing time
Your videos are incredible. Love your whole channel.
Thanks so much brother! Where are you from?
@@RyanShirley Toront, Canada but with Italian roots. Was watching your series on Dolomites and it convinced me to head there on my honey moon in September. Now me and my Fiancee are debating between Amalfi and Sicily using some of your videos as a guide. You do an amazing job giving a true idea of what each place is like and if it's suitable for a visit.
Only good vibes in Sicily 🌋 the Aeolian islands are my favorite 🏖
They are my favorite too! Hidden gem of the Mediterranean
Sicily is a great place to visit, good food and nice people. Also when you interested in ancient Rome history.
The food there is amazing! Best pizza I’ve ever had!
We have more ancient story than Rome :P
Great video! And thank you for not being a douche and disrupting everyone else while filming your videos!
Thanks so much mate! I try to be as discreet as possible 😅
Wonderful video Ryan!! Spectacular! I'm from Sicily and you described perfectly my land! Very good! I hope you enjoyed the food too! Ciao :)
Thanks so much! What part of Sicily are you from?
@@RyanShirley I'm from Spadafora, nearby Milazzo, in the province of Messina.
Absolutely fantasic, Ryan !!! I have to go to Sicily :-)
Thanks so much Petr!! You could get some great filming there ☺️
AAAAAAAAH! THATS ME SCREAMING WITH GLEE & FRUSTRATION HAHAHAA! THANK YOU SO MUCH DEAR SIR, GOD BLESS YOU! YES I WOULD LOVE TO GO. GOD WILLING SOMEDAY...... SIGH. LOL
Thanks so much Grace! Sicily is waiting for you!
Sehr schönes Video. Zwar habe ich es mit deutschen Untertiteln geschaut und schnell lesen müssen, aber die Aufnahmen sind klasse, die Informationen über diese wunderschöne Insel super. Wir wollen im September dorthin und jetzt erfreue ich mich an dem Video
Thanks so much friend! You’re going to have a great time when you visit in September!
Love from Rajasthan ❤️
Thanks Gurtej! I need to visit India soon
Meravigliosa Sicilia
Truly is wonderful ☺️🇮🇹
Your videos look beautiful, the videography is great.
Thanks friend! Sicily is too photogenic
You and djemographic 🔥... I just love your videos and the way you people narrate it
Thanks so much Snedan! I love Djemo’s videos too, he makes the best switzerland videos. Where are you from mate?
@@RyanShirley India 🇮🇳
Absolutely agree, he makes the best Switzerland videos
You captured so many beautiful shots of Sicily! We leave this Friday, and Scopello is going on the list. So sad that we won’t have time to check out the Aeolian islands, but there’s always next time! ☀️🏖🥾🍕🍝🍷
Thanks so much Kati! That’s awesome your there, you’re going to have such a great time on Scopello!
One of my favourite European city Sicily 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹 brother
Thanks so much Bibek! Have you been to Sicily?
@@RyanShirley brother I go to the Sicily in the summer 2023 my brother and love you brother
🦋🎨. What a great video thank you for putting that together and thank you for the Maps that you showed and also when you write the names of the cities and towns and scream because sometimes you don’t quite catch the pronunciation so it’s good to be able to see it thank you for doing that. And Lucky you for being able to visit there I hope to be there one day soon.
Beautiful video ❤❤❤ i love it 🥰 it makes me to visit Sicily in the summer
Thanks Cata
Can’t wait to go back
Where did you visit?
@@RyanShirley Catania, Taormina & Cefalu, we loved them all but especially Cefalu, we shall return one day, for sure.
My best friend, that's a great video. I will always cheer for you in Korea I'm looking forward to a great video. Have a nice day.
Beautiful video !
Thanks so much! Sicily is amazing
Notto is an amazing place of Sicily too🔥
I gotta give it a visit next time! Looks amazing
wow so cool
I think your video is really cool. I think I have a lot to learn
Thanks friend!
Sicily is a fantastic place and this video really made me remember it because since I live in Sicily I often forget all of the fantastic places we have
Also a small correction: Faraglioni is pronounced: “Faraioni” in Italian but is just a small detail
Thanks so much Giuliano! Great advice regarding how to pronounce Faraglioni. What part of Sicily is your favorite?
@@RyanShirley probably the aeolian islands or the valley of temples but It’s hard to decide with so many places
Would it be easy to see all of these places without a car? On public transport perhaps. Me and my partner are thinking of visiting Sicily for maybe a week to 10 days in the next year or two. Thanks
@@BrokenFairytalexo no, it's very difficult, a lot of places haven't a station train. The best solution Is rent a car, more freedom and relax, it isn't too expensive. I live in sicily, western sicily, near 'Scopello'.
beaufiful !!!! big hug from Ibiza!!!
Thanks so much mate! I love your island 🏝
i LOVE italy
and this channle
Thanks so much brother! Where is your favorite place in Italy?
@@RyanShirley i love the alps like the so Dolomites or some wear on coast because because thats nice!
So beautiful place , i really love your videos 😍😍 MikMikTV here 🤩
Thanks so much friend! Where are you from?
Beautiful 🤩
Thanks so much 🇮🇹🏖
I was born and live in Sicily and, even though you're right that there are a lot more places worth visiting, you definitely missed one of the most beatiful towns in the island: Noto.
The baroque architecture there is just incredible and I'm sure you would have been stunned by it, be sure to go there next time you come here ;)
Wow just looked up noto and looks amazing! I wish I had known about it when I visited. What part of Sicily are you from?
@@RyanShirley I live in Bivona, a small town on the hills near Agrigento.
I am looking to relocate to Sicily. My fathers family was originally from Carini, Sicily. Are there any towns you recommend. I am looking to live a very peacefully life. Away from the main tourist spots.
@@josephinevera9966 Hi, sorry to be late but I just saw your comment. Carini is a nice town but, being near Palermo and by the sea, it may be a bit chaotic, especially in the summer. If you want a peaceful place to live I suggest to look for a town in the inland, for example monti Sicani, the area where I live (my town is Bivona), even though there are other issues here, like the lack of public transportation and not so good roads. On the other hand houses are very cheap, you can eat a lot of locally produced genuine food and you're surrounded by nature.
@@carmelodl8407 hi, thank you for your helpful tips! Carini is my fathers homeland so I would love to stay there but I will definitely look into other towns nearby!
It is very nice view, I love it❤️️
Thanks mate!
Thanks Ryan!
Of course! Thanks for watching ☺️
Awesome.
Thanks brother!
Amazing the video
Thanks so much brother!
Killer!!!…🤙😎🤘
Like ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thanks brother!
Beautiful
Thanks friend!
Oh goodness, Sicily is so beautiful! I have always seen Amalfi but not as much Sicily so I'm putting this next on my list for traveling soon. I always think that travels are made easier when you have the best travel gears and essentials too. The bento bag from Nomad Lane is my best carry-on bag for dream vacation destination like this one. Thought I'd share it to you too!
Can’t wait for you to visit Sicily!
Muy bonito reportaje
Muchas gracias Antonio!
Excellent ❤️Thanks 🙏🏻
Thanks so much Terese 🇮🇹🏖
My husband is from Marsala, so you should definitely go there and try proper Marsala wine, see the Salt Pans on the road to Trapani, see Erice!
I’ll have to check it out next time I go to Sicily! It looks amazing
Wow😍😍 , its amazing Ryan,
I love it ❤️
As always you have cured my tired mind❤️
Thank you Ryan 🥰
Thanks so much Nikki! Got any travel plans soon?
Beautiful Place
Such a great place 🇮🇹🏖
@@RyanShirley Yes It is
full watching here my dear
Thanks friend!
amaxing
Thanks ☺️
أنت مميز جدا فيديو رائع تحياتي لك من مصر
Thanks mate! Love your country 🇪🇬
Once again, great video Ryan! We are heading to Sicily tomorrow with stops in Iceland and Rome, but wanted to say your videos are very helpful in finding great places to visit. We've got our drone in hand and can't wait to capture some great footage. Do you have your best favorite spot in Sicily?
I’m excited for you guys to go! I loved the Aeolian islands!
@@RyanShirley Thanks for the reply. We will be staying in Marsala, Agrigento, Ortigia, Taormina and Cefalu. I already know we will have to be back. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
beautiful romantic place to be 😍🥰😘 new sub and bell ❤
Thanks so much friend!
Amazing!!! I love every single video on your chanel. They're all well detailed and nicely organized. Thank you for showing us the world.🤍
Thanks so much Jenie! That means the world. Is there any place you’d like me to make a video on?
I would really appreciate if you could make a video of Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. There are so many beautiful places to visit with nice historical stories. Starting from the sea views upto the mountains. The weather is also good and warm.🌞
Hi there!! Love your videos sooo much!! My husband and I are planning a trip to Europe next year. I'm torn between the Greek Islands, Sicily or possibly Spain. What would you suggest (I know, a terrible question to ask, but would love your thoughts or the thoughts of others). Thanks!!
Hey Fran! That’s a tough one, I really love the Greek islands, especially places like Zakynthos and Milos. I also love Mallorca and Ibiza.
@@RyanShirley wow, thanks for your quick reply 😅😊!! Sooo, between the Greek Islands and Sicily, it sounds like you prefer Greece? We were thinking a lot about Corfu and the Ionian Islands -- Zakynthos is in that area! We will have about two weeks including travel from NY/NJ area. (Btw, you and your wife are absolutely adorable 😍).
Just got back from a 3 week visit of Sicily. Hit almost all the places mentioned. Did more of a wine 🍷 tour. The food was amazing. Eat n drank way way to much.
Hard to match the food and pizza there! Best I’ve ever had☺️
@@RyanShirley totally agree. Just an amazing time. My first time to Sicily. We took my father's ashes back to his home town of pietraperiza
Thank you very much. This is absolutely what I wasn't expecting😢 I imagined Sicily being completely different from what I saw in your video. Will go and search for holidays in a different place... Maybe, Crete...
what a great introduction to Cicely, how long do you recon a location before you head out? just wondering looks like you are always well prepped.
Honestly I have a few spots I want to visit beforehand like Aeolian islands, Cefalu, Taormina, and Etna. And other places I just find while I’m there or driving around
@@RyanShirley cool approach, its always nice to to leave some room for exploring and getting a feel for adventures along the way man .by the way would be cool if you make a video on the process and tools you use to plan a trip and what's your thought proses of creating the videos as well as travel plan .could give you a more personal connection with the viewers
I wish kindly your 1milion subscriber brother
Great video. How about Favignana??
I need to visit it next time and add it to part 2, looks like a incredible island
Your videos are so helpful but I’m still stuck. If you had to choose one, what area of islands would you visit if you have five days in a sailboat? Would really love your recommendation as I will be doing my first boat trip this summer.
In Sicily or just Europe in general? I think Aeolian Islands, Greek Islands, or Sardinia could be cool areas to sail.
18.062022-09.072022 there's not enough time to visit all beautifull places.
❤
Rayan Shirley is the my favourite you tube channel
You’re the man Bibek!
After flying into Palermo’s airport, I’ll be taking the train to Capo d’Orlando, rent a car to Naso, back to Capo for some time and then the train to Taormina and then Syracusa. That’s just for starters. Then there’s Pompeii, Bologna and Milan.
Sounds like a amazing trip! 😁🇮🇹
Palermo is a fairly rough chaotic loud place, you need to check the bill there as most places always try and overcharge you thinking you won't check the bill and there are many places that do not list. Catania, Syracuse and the east is much nicer!
Dang I didn’t know that about the bill! 😅 driving through Palermo was so hectic,
After spending a quiet week on the island of Ustica, lots of diving in summer, we rode the ferry back to Palermo. Sat outdoors that night at a restaurant and the noise and motorcycles nearly drove me nuts. My least favorite town or city in all of Sicily.
