Fantastic experience

Published on Oct, 2024

Our tour with Filippo, the driver, and Erika, the guide, was absolutely wonderful! Filippo’s driving was smooth and safe, and Erika’s knowledge and passion for the places we visited made the experience even more special. Their attention to detail and care made it a truly memorable day. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish, and we highly recommend this tour to anyone!

Day full of adventure! Loved this THANKS ERIKA&FILIPO

Published on Oct, 2024

Our day exploring Etna, Taormina, and Savoca with Filippo and Erika was beyond expectations! The luxury van was the perfect way to travel in style and comfort. Filippo navigated the winding roads with ease, and Erika’s stories and knowledge brought so much depth to the experience. Each stop offered something unique — the raw beauty of Etna, the elegance of Taormina, and the historic charm of Savoca. It was an impeccably organized tour, and we loved every minute of it!

Sicily Best Tour Lives up to its name!

Published on Oct, 2024

My husband and I took Tour 5, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time visiting Mount Etna, Taormina, Savoca and Messina with our guide, Erika, and driver, Franco. Erika grew up in Messina, so she was able to share so much more with us about the history of the area, as well as some of her own personal experiences. Her storytelling added a lot to the overall tour, and we really appreciated that. Franco was an excellent driver, and we felt very safe with him and his ability to maneuver - a true gift on those roads! The two of them timed each stop perfectly so that we avoided all the crowds, helping to make this the best day of site seeing we had on our 14-day vacation!

A must see!!

What a wonderful day! Very informative with plenty of free time to explore on our own. The small towns were delightful.

Great Tour - Mt Etna, Taormina and Savoca

Published on Nov, 2022

A group of us cruised Italy in October and six of us opted for this private tour of Sicily. I was so glad we did. We were met promptly at the cruise port by both a driver and a guide. They were very knowledgeable of the area and even brought us cannoli.
