Will be on RS tour in Nov in Sicily. Will I need a jacket every day? Is a windbreaker enough or should I bring fleece? Crops or long pants? I tolerate cool weather better than hot.

I've worn cropped pants in Sicily through the end of October, but didn't happen to stay later. If you don't tend to "run cold," I'd lean toward lighter layers that can be more variable than a fleece. To go with your windbreaker, a t-shirt, long-sleeved shirt, and light scarf can combine to give you more options through the day. Or some very thin fleeces also exist.

We visited the last 2 weeks in December, which I presume are a tad cooler than In November. A jacket was often helpful, but we were never in absolutely frigid temperatures. One day can vary and one November may not be like another November (or December) but a sunny day at the Temples outside Agrigento was actually very warm, and we had to strip down to stay cool. A scarf or hat to cover your head might be helpful either way.
