Four nights at Hotel Villa Diodoro in Taormina, Sicily

We will be staying in Canazei (

https://www.fassa.com/en/discover-val-di-fassa/villages/canazei ) where, you’ll find the biggest ski center in Val di Fassa. It comprises the slopes at the foot of the Pordoi, Sella and Fedaia passes and is divided into the four areas of Belvedere, Ciampac, Col Rodella and Marmolada, all of which can be reached quickly and easily from the village. With its modern lifts and direct links to the Sellaronda, Canazei is one of the most popular winter sports areas in the entire Alpine region. The Sellaronda is well-known and is amongst the most impressive ski circuits in South Tyrol and indeed in the whole of the Alps. The well-connected lifts and superbly prepared pistes will allow you uninterrupted skiing on almost 30 kms of ski runs in one single day. On the Sellaronda, there is really no need for you to take off your skis and you will never have to cover the same stretch twice. The Sellaronda is one of the best-known ski routes in the world, encompassing four Dolomite passes around the Sella group. You will ski across the Ladin valleys of Val Gardena, Alta Badia, Arabba and Val di Fassa, covering 40 km, 27 km of which are pure skiing fun.

FOUR NIGHT EXTENSION TO TAORMINA, SICILY

Taormina sits atop a hill on Sicily's east coast, before a backdrop of golden sandy beaches, the glittering Ionian Sea, and the geological grandeur of Mount Etna – an active volcano veined with trails. From flourishing Greek to Roman town, Taormina's history is everywhere you look. Check out the labyrinth-like medieval streets of its old town, as well as the Teatro Antico di Taormina: the dramatic ruins of an ancient Greco-Roman theater, which is still used today. In Taormina you can fill your days by strolling the pedestrianized main street for souvenirs, dining on authentic Sicilian fare, or watching the sunset with a tangy limoncello.
