Great place, just loved the balcony overlooking the town and valley. We were there for Dec 8. The Festival of Immaculate Conception, bells ringing canons booming, parades and terrific fireworks, of which we had a Birds Eye view. Scicli, is a lovely Baroque town with numerous squares and churches. We did not have a car so did everything on foot, and public transport. Internet connection a little slow and sometimes intermittent, good enough to get things done. Rail service better than bus service.
