Hi Mary, thanks for this video. My husband and I are planning to spend a month in Cefalu in 2025. It was great to hear you say that Public Transport is reliable as we are not planning to drive. Do you think Cefalu is a good base and will we be able to visit and explore other towns and areas? Our friends and families think we’re mad, but we want to take it slow and immerse ourselves in the life there.

@MaryBartnikowski
@MaryBartnikowski 3 ай бұрын
People who don’t watch the content and then comment on it are annoying. For others who want to learn something new: don’t take an earlier train than the one you paid for. I did this and had to pay $70 on top of the $35 because it was a different train. So no it didn’t cost $35, it cost $105 for a 1-hour train ride which is excessive.
