Sicilian Railway Experience is a new Rocco Forte rail product: a 1920s train from central Palermo to Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples, running from Villa Igiea to the Verdura Resort on the historic rolling stock managed by the Ferrovie dello Stato Foundation.
The Sicilian Railway Experience from Rocco Forte Hotels, a collaboration with the State Railways Foundation, has been designed for corporate events, presentations, and team building days.
Coastal itineraries
The coast-to-coast itinerary which takes about two hours, covers a route to discover western Sicily travelling through the most authentic and intimate parts of the hinterland and coming to UNESCO heritage gems like the Scala dei Turchi and the Valley of the Temples.
A fully customisable service
The new service is fully customisable, including the option of having a local guide on board to provide a guided journey or the services of a bartender to combine the panoramic views with a mixology experience featuring Sicilian flavours. There are also several customisation options for the train, which can be modulated with up to four standard cars with wooden seats as well as a carriage with leather seats, and a luggage area.
