Trapani’s location lends itself to a range of fascinating excursions.  For the ultimate Trapani carhire experience, be sure to include a tour of the famous Salt Works, an area of stark natural beauty stretching from Trapani to the Marsala Coast.  The region is home to some 170 species of bird including colourful flamingos, storks, cranes and herons.  The charming medieval village of Erice is also worth a visit.  Situated 750 feet above sea level, Erice boasts a number of interesting attractions including the 14th century cathedral and Castle of Venus. 

Trapani plays host to a number of vibrant festivals and events throughout the calendar year including the Procession of Good Friday and Holy Saturday, a procession of the Mysteries, when locals throw petals from balconies onto a 24-hour street procession of wooden crosses.
