BrinkGuide: Sicily Edition

iOS iPhone

BrinkGuides are a new breed of mobile travel guide. They are interested in what's just under the surface, on the margin, The Brink. They pay special attention to the small businesses that make up the fabric of a city as well as the must see venues that define a destination. Written mainly by opinionated locals, you won't find these kinds of places in travel literature produced by the usual suspects, we can assure you of that. It doesn't matter if you are traveling on a shoestring budget hopping freight trains, or on Daddy's allowance by Lear Jet, Brink Guides illuminate the most interesting nooks and crannies of a new location. Don't find yourself in a strange city without one.

The BrinkGuide Sicily Edition brings you Mediterranean coasts with a history of conquest, revolt, and more! Steeped in mythology, rich in food, and how could we forget the wine? You're in Europe now - you know, where the history comes from - and without a grip on the language, you 'd be fortunate, at best, to stumble upon the great hidden treasures we've found for you here. Interested in the best food? Thirsty for the most unique regional wines? Want to gesticulate like a fool in the hippest clubs? It'd serve you well to cup your ears, close your eyes. and listen to the local voice. Our troops are on the ground, and with only one mission in mind: to turn you on to the most unusual, well-kept secrets of the island.
