Catamaran tickets to Sicily for new word game winner - July 31, 2010

The winner of the new word game series, which kicks off today, will be whisked off to Sicily with another three members of his family or friends.

Virtu Ferries are offering four return passenger catamaran tickets valid until December. The prize excludes the fuel surcharge and port service charge.

Virtu Ferries have introduced a number of excursions that cater for the different tastes of passengers. They range from adventure trips to cultural visits to the Sicilian southwest Unesco world heritage sites and gastronomic tours to sample the popular Sicilian cuisine, increasingly recognised as the finest example of a healthy Mediterranean diet. Thus the winner can make his own way around Sicily or decide to take up one of the tours.

Despite the variety, the excursions have two things in common: they are based on the very diverse but beautiful countryside of Ragusa and on passenger feedback that reflects the ever-changing and exciting world of travel.

Virtu Ferries have been operating high speed ferries between Malta and Sicily since 1988. The Maria Dolores makes over 500 round trips every year between Valletta and Pozzallo (90 minutes) and Catania (three hours), effectively making Malta part of mainland Europe.

The six winning words of the last word game were telemetry, hairstyle, commodore, presuming, tailoring and graveyard.
