Julie Pfeffer: I am normally a big Rough Guide fan and like them better than LP, but this book was pretty weak. We drove around Sicily for 10 days and visited towns both included and not included in the book—we found that the guide was pretty terrible when it came to comprehensiveness, in terms of describing the towns it actually covered as well as leaving out towns and areas that really should have been included. For instance, the sizeable city of Gela, which is definitely a cool place to visit, was not even mentioned in the book at all (neighboring much smaller towns were included, bafflingly). The book is useful for some things, but don’t rely on it too much.

lycia macdermott: I wanted an eguide to Sicily. There wasn’t a big choice so I settled for this one. For me the scope was too broad. This was not the fault of the guide. Ideally I wanted detailed information on locations. By its very nature this guide gives a lot of information on how to get there, where to stay, where to eat etc. None of which I needed.
If you want a general guide, this is the one for you.

Michel Vanbergen: Acheté pour un futur voyage en Sicile, il couvre tous les coins de l'île, contient des cartes et donne les conseils pratiques pour y voyager avec les transports collectifs. Rough est un éditeur que j'utilise quand l'occasion m'est donnée. Ils sont bien fichus.

Bocabased: Lots of detailed information about the regions of Sicily and how to get there by road or public transportation. Helpful in narrowing down the multitude of choices.

Tom Szoke: Really good overall guide. Plenty of historical background and description of sites plus practical detail. We also bought the more "nerdy" Blue Guide, but this Rough Guide was almost as detailed about the main sites so the Rough Guide was by far our primary guide on our trip. We took a 9-day trip, covering Catania, Syracusa, Palermo, Erice, Roman Villa, Valley of Temples, so the more famous sites.
The Blue Guide may be a better for the less famous sites, but for our "highlights" tour the Rough Guide was perfect.
