Where Sicily gets exotic. North African couscous, ancient salt pans with windmills, medieval Erice in the clouds, Egadi Islands 30 min offshore. 2 hours west of Palermo.
Frequent, faster than train. From Piazza Politeama area.
Slower but last hour hugs the coast beautifully.
Segesta bus — faster and more frequent. Trapani deserves an overnight: Erice morning, salt pans sunset, Favignana next day.
