About Erice
Erice is a stone-built medieval village suspended above the Trapani coast, where narrow lanes, Norman ruins and pastry shops famous for almond sweets reward slow wandering. Getting there is part of the experience, whether you climb by cable car or join the Erice Walking Tour from Trapani with Local Products Tasting for a guided introduction with tastings. For a broader sweep of western Sicily's food and wine, the Palermo Food & Wine Tour: Erice, Marsala Salt, Olive Oil & Wine Tasting links the village to the salt pans and vineyards below.

Frequently asked questions
Erice is a popular day-trip destination, so guided walks, tastings and multi-stop tours from Trapani or Palermo fill up fastest in spring and summer, and around weekends and public holidays. Booking a few days ahead is sensible in high season, and earlier still if you want a specific language or a private guide.
