What people say

"Erice is a gorgeous hilltop town, voted one of the most beautiful in the country, offering walks through ancient cobblestone streets, delicious local pastries, and dramatic views over the sea, Trapani, and the nearby hills. Foodies, visit one of the many pastry shops and do not miss: - genovesi ericine: small pastries filled with hot custard and sprinkled with icing sugar; - mustaccioli cookies, flavored with honey and a hint of clove; - almond-based marzipan fruit. Dine at Osteria di Venere. You can reach Erice by car, bus or, ideally, via cableway from Trapani. The cableway is currently under maintenance, please check link below for updates. "
"Another thing about parking in Erice – there are many parking automats, but You’ll need coins and cash to buy a parking ticket there, and the prices in all parking lots are the same, so don’t worry about that. Erice hosts more than sixty churches, some of which are architectural documents of great value and historical valuable evidence: among them the church of St. Martin, San Cataldo, and San Giuliano di San Giovanni Battista. And there are many more things to see and do in Erice."

"Erice: inland town with cable car and medieval buildings. I got the bus up to this beautiful town which was quite a windy ride, but the views were incredible! On the way back down you can get the cable car and then bus through the city (not windy). "
