The photo from 26:18 to 26:28 represents the fresco painting called "The School of Athens" which can be found in the Vatican on your way to the Sistine Chapel. It depicts Plato, Aristotle and a tired Michelangelo on the bottom stair.
I was utterly charmed by your spontaneous encounter with the guy and his horse cart. I think Sicily offers the best pastries in the world, outdoing France, Portugal, Germany or anywhere else.
Did castellammare del golfo in june. My 1st time in sicily and I too think its an amazing islands, laid back, lovely people, great food and affordable.. Ill be back.
Amazing video! And amazing musicist, he played A Renato Carosone song “ Tu vo fa l’Amicano” and speak about the fascination and love of Italian people for America USA👌🏻…
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, along comes more surprises. Beautiful video of a beautiful town and surrounding scenery. That was a great choice for the last video, rather than a busy city. Loved it! Arriverderci Sicily❤
Really glad you made a video about Erice....so beautiful, and yes very touristy' now....I spent 2 summers in Erice in the late 70s and there were much less tourists there at the time. My father was one of the physics professors that attended and lectured at the science school......loved that you showed that. Love your channel
@@GabrielTravelerVideos If you ever visit The Big Nervous (aka) NYC again let me know I will send you a list of places and restaurants that have a lot of history but most people dont do any videos about them....locals only kind of places....but in the middle of Manhattan...throw people off of what they always see....the same as it ever was. Keep on keeping on Gabriel
Gabe! When in Sardinia, make sure to get some Cannonau wine! Not only will you enjoy it, it’s very healthy for you! Blue Zone area! Bucket list destination for sure! Can’t wait to see the video(s)!
So in luv with the sky another crystal clear day. And again I want to point out what a clean well organized small town that was. Very inviting. The contrast of the sea. The sky. The landscape. Just gorgeous. Safe. Travels. To. Sardinia 💜🌸🙏🏻💜🌸🙏🏻
Sicily is a very very special island that you need to revisit again with more time. Everything south of Naples is Magna Grecia. There are many villages in Central Sicily still speak Greek. Syracuse will blow your mind! When the Romans were invaded by the German tribes, many Romans fled and assimilated with the Greeks of Magna Grecia. Sicily reminds me of Greece as it should. What you probably are unaware is that during the Mussolini era, the Greeks were persecuted in a form of ethnic catharsis. Later when he decided to invade Greece he used the Greeks of Magna Grecia which would not fight against their brothers. In fact these Greeks of Magna Grecia helped the Allied Forces of WWII to invade; they paved the road for them. The mafia is due to this poor south/rich north you see in Italy. Rich north by German Romans and poor south by Greek Romans. Make an effort to revisit Sicily. Amazing island!
Hey Gabe, thanks a lot for this inspiring video that immediately ignites my wanderlust. Next year, I'll embark on a journey from Germany to Italy on foot, including a visit to Sicily. I can hardly wait and am looking forward to it like a kid in a candy store. I'm especially excited about the sweet Italian breakfast in the morning. I will definitely indulge in some Cannoli and Cornetto. Hallelujah for that. Keep up the great work. I've been watching your videos for years and keep coming back. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you dor this wonderful video. I like your exploration activity. I learn a lot. I am looking forward to watching about Sardegna island and I would like to make a comparision between the two big Italian islands.
Hi Gabriel, Erice was a small-town gem considered to be one of the most beautiful villages in Sicily. It's hard to travel when on a time limit to leave so I'm guessing you will make the trip back when you get a chance, there is still much to see It's also difficult to enjoy when you have days left to enjoy traveling around these beautiful places.
Gabriel , Before I even watch your video , I have to tell you about a video I just saw on the Weather Channel ! It was about a happening at Jasper National Park ! I have heard you mention it so many times ! A bull Elk during the rut season was attacking a car ! The cars were stopped on the road in the park , and the Bull chose that car to attack ! So glad you had a video to tell you . Guess you’ve seen that scenario many times back when you worked at the park ! Now, on with you video 😎
So enjoying your trip to Sicily. I was there in 2011 for a week. Flew in to Catania and out of Palermo. Stayed in Riposto a couple of days. Agrigento was great then 4 days in Castellammare. Side tripped to Erice and Taormina. Loved it there!!
Beauty insel to visit. There's another city there in Sicily. Syracusa where Saint Lucia was born and she was chased and killed and had her eyes gouged out by soldiers of the Dioclessian emperor. Her body was stolen by the Turks, and the Venetians brought it back to Italy. Another Catholic martyr is currently in Venice in Saint Mark's Cathedral. The Venetians really wanted religious tourism and the money from it in Venice since there was no way to do agriculture there.
Sicily seems to me much more destroyed and underdeveloped. Many people who visit it are disappointed.Greece is in a much better condition, even though it is fragmented with many islands. As far as potential, Sicily looks bad to me.It's stupid to visit a museum and not say anything about Ettore Majorana.But ok.It happens....His story is intriguing and a mystery...I also don't understand that in Tonnara di Scopello you didn't go down to the sea where the most famous part of that place is located.
Great watch, thanks Gabriel. Interested in Syracuse, seeing a bit of it around the South Coast. Have a Silver Tetradrachm mint there in 480bc. Old World Coinage. Regards & enjoy Sir.
13:52 Some women have the heart like this. “Even if you have the key, you can’t open it” 25:46 fantastic view 28:44 you made him an offer he couldn’t refuse
The horse looked like it was getting in the mood to either dance or trot off for a moment. Obviously inspired by his musician owner.
No wonder Erice was busy, those views from the top were exquisite. I think the horse had heard that song once too many times 😁
I am always happy when there is a person like you who is able to greet even a dog in front of the church.Hello!And thank you.
That horse was either dancing. Or. Ready. To go. That. Was great. The song was for you. His new American friend. 😅💜🌷💜
Best Friends Forever.
🧡⭐️😘
The photo from 26:18 to 26:28 represents the fresco painting called "The School of Athens" which can be found in the Vatican on your way to the Sistine Chapel. It depicts Plato, Aristotle and a tired Michelangelo on the bottom stair.
Diogenes is also depicted spread across the stairs.
Amazing accordeon player and singer 😀
Your videos are the best entertainment all day, every day!! I definitely have to visit Sicily for sure!! Thank you!
We spent a month. Read up on history. Everyone has invaded. Archimedes lived in Syracuse.
I was utterly charmed by your spontaneous encounter with the guy and his horse cart. I think Sicily offers the best pastries in the world, outdoing France, Portugal, Germany or anywhere else.

Best regards to the hi-lite of your travel which was the White Horse, Accordion Player, and Cart!
Definitely.
This is a song of Renato Carosone of Neapel, is singing in neapolitaner, is not sicilian
Thanks for sharing the lovely island of Sicily.
What a beautiful country, beautiful people. Sicily is at the top of travel bucket list since I watched The Godfather. Ciao❤

Best intro! Autentic! Bravo 👏👏👏
😊😊😊
Erice looks amazing! We will visit there in May or June next year. Wow.
Really glad you made a video about Erice....so beautiful, and yes very touristy' now....I spent 2 summers in Erice in the late 70s and there were much less tourists there at the time.
My father was one of the physics professors that attended and lectured at the science school......loved that you showed that.

Wow, very cool. I guess it's changed but I'm sure the old town remains the same.

Looking forward to Sardinia one of the blue zones 👍🏽

(by the way, the most important roman excavation in switzerland is near basel at augst, named augusta raurica).
Thank you for a great view of Sicily! Really looking forward to Sardinia, as I have always wanted to visit.
So in luv with the sky another crystal clear day. And again I want to point out what a clean well organized small town that was. Very inviting. The contrast of the sea. The sky. The landscape. Just gorgeous. Safe. Travels. To. Sardinia 💜🌸🙏🏻💜🌸🙏🏻
I love this... thank you for sharing!!! 💚🤍❤ Arrivederci!

Beautiful island and on my bucket list with Malta to visit
Such a charming place … I’ve been singing Americano around my kitchen this evening 😂❤beautiful
Head back to Sicily in the future then take the ferry across to Calabria. Calabria is amazing

Thank you for sharing some of your interesting knowledge re Sicily…I hope one day I’m blessed enough to visit🙏🏼❤️
Since long time there's so many war in Europe, now Russia & Ukrania. So war never end.
There no village that speak greek in sicily, I don't know where you found this wrong information. There are some in calabria and Apulia
Accordion player was wonderful with his jaunty tune and fine voice 🙏☀️🪗🎶✨🙂☀️🪗
At the mercy of time. Great phrase.
such a great adventure to Sicily!!
I stopped in castellammare del Golfo for lunch on the way to Baglio Soria wine resort. I wish I would have walked around the town.
Erice is beautiful was there 2 years ago. The views from the castle are stunning. There's a famous bakery there called Grammatica
When you get to Sardinia, I can recommend the town of Bosa. Also the Ruins at Tharros is pretty cool!!!
Looks nice, maybe next time. Catching a flight out of Sardinia today. Videos coming soon.
Everywhere looked so clean and litter free.
That song was the best! Americano!
Cool man!

Sounds like an epic adventure over the Alps, that should be amazing. Have fun and good luck. ✌️👊
Beautiful video again ! Thank you ! 😊❤

YOU SHOULD VISIT SYRACUSE, IT'S A MUST!
So enjoying your trip to Sicily. I was there in 2011 for a week. Flew in to Catania and out of Palermo. Stayed in Riposto a
couple of days. Agrigento
was great then 4 days in Castellammare. Side tripped to Erice and Taormina. Loved it there!!
Broke out the Gabriel high-roller warp speed mode 😂😂
Erice was a good choice for final day's tour, also famous for it's chocolate. The horse & cart is a traditional icon of Sicily.
Amazing iam completely enjoyed the whole episode from manjunath Shimoga Karnataka India
That Accordion player was good! Nice.
No doubt, very catchy.
Monreale has a beautiful church.
Where are you going after Italy
Latin and deep roots of civilization everywhere, just beautiful, thank you Gabe !✌✌
Go back soon please. Palermo and Cefalu.
I know you just left Sicily but I just posted a video of our Catania time if you’re interested
Why no drone? Very helpful to you
It flew away 😢
Funny the man sang you: tu vuò fa l'americano. I wonder if he knew you were American 😂😂😂
Baseball cap is a major clue...
Great colorful video! Well done! ❤

I am so scared to drive in Europe
To the right of the painting is the cover of the Guns N Roses use your illusion albums
Sausages and bread $30 hope it was good.
HI Gabriel
Hey there, how's it going?
You say grazie piacere. Put bello/ bella

That's an amazing opportunity to meet some real traditional mafia bosses.

A great, but brief, vlog of Sicily Don Gabriel, try any pizza? 🍕🤌🏻🇮🇹
Yes, I showed some pizza in this video: th-cam.com/video/LTspPEY9-iE/w-d-xo.html
