We've been trying to coordinate a trip ourselves (I posted previously), but got delayed.
While delayed, a friend of ours who loves to set up vacations with friends invited us to meet them in Scicli on the southern tip of Sicily. They are going to be biking for a week prior to the get together, which is scheduled for 29 Oct 2018. Probably rent a house - total of 6-8 people - for about a week.
I've checked the weather - supposed to be 70-72 highs and 60ish lows. I know these are averages - and, can go much higher and low - BUT, anyone been there that time of year?
Next big issue is how would be the most fun to get there . We both love train travel and would still like to fly (United on United/Chase points) into somewhere with inexpensive connections from the US to get on a scenic 5-7 day or so train schedule from the north (Switzerland or Germany) ... stay a day wherever would be fun but eventually make our way all the way to Scicli.
Anyone done anything like this? We're pretty flexible, but limited more by money and points
Thanks!!
