Overview

We offer an excursion service from our beloved Sicily. In particular, in these tours we propose a visit to our hometown, Messina, going to visit the Sanctuary of Christ the King, one of the most beautiful panoramic points of the city from where you can see the Strait of Messina. Subsequently it will also be possible to visit the Cathedral of Messina with the largest astronomical clock in the world while also tasting Sicilian sweets and specialties. Another stage of the tour includes the arrival in Taormina, the most famous city in Sicily, with a walk along Corso Umberto, characterized by Gothic and Baroque influences. You will also go to see the "balcony", a panoramic place of the city of Taormina from where you can see the wonderful Isola Bella. The last stop of the tour, however, includes a visit to the village of Castelmola, one of the most evocative villages in Sicily, also influenced by Arab and Norman traditions and styles.

Great private tour

Published on Oct, 2024

The views were amazing. We asked the driver to stop at some of the scenic sites and he was patient with us and took our pictures

Beautiful day visiting 3 special Sicilian cities

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a special tour with Enzo and Kimberly. He was our expert driver and she was the historical and geographical expert. Castelmola was beautiful and typical of a tiny Sicilian village with gorgeous views of Mt. Etna and delicious cannoli. Taormina is a tourist delight with beautiful views of the Mediterranean and fabulous shopping. Kimberly was most patient with our sightseeing/shopping. And the cathedral in Messina was exceptional., just wish we had more time in Messina. Would recommend them highly.

Highlight of our cruise.

Published on Oct, 2024

This was an excellent tour. Both our diver and tour guide were exceptional. Kimberly in particular provided important commentary and historical perspective on our excursion. I highly recommend this trip.
