Operated by Urban Passer · Tunis, Tunis Governorate
You arrive in Tunis as sunlight pushes across low limestone roofs, spice stalls calling and the sea smelling faint in the distance. The itinerary threads north Africa and the central Mediterranean—Tunisian medinas and Roman ruins give way to Maltese bastions and, finally, Sicily’s volcanic slopes—each day a clear change of scene.

8 days.
Generally suitable for travellers in average fitness; participants should be comfortable walking 3–6 hours on varied terrain and able to manage stairs and uneven ground.
Visa requirements depend on your nationality—check entry rules for Tunisia, Malta and Italy well before travel and ensure passport validity meets each country’s minimum requirement.
The Etna day reaches up to ~2,000 m with volcanic scree and some steep sections; it’s moderate but requires solid footwear and steady pace—guides adapt routes to conditions.
Yes: flights from Tunis to Malta and Malta to Catania, and a train ticket from Catania to Palermo are included in the itinerary details.
The tour is designed for general fitness levels, but the Etna hike and some archaeological sites involve uneven ground and stairs—consult the operator for accessibility accommodations.
This route traverses layers of Mediterranean history—from Punic and Roman settlements in Tunisia to the Knights of St John in Malta and Arab-Norman and Baroque legacies in Sicily.
