Highly Recommended if you are in Sicily!!!! - We had only one day in Sicily as part of a cruise stop, so we wanted to make the most of it. After researching online, I booked Get in Sicily. While it’s hard to guarantee that a company will create amazing memories, I can confidently say that Get in Sicily went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. They’re highly flexible with their itineraries and specific needs of your trip. We booked as a family of 10, including two people who needed mobility scooters and my mom who was celebrating her 70th birthday during our Sicily visit. Get in Sicily accommodated the two scooters easily in very comfortable transport. Their drivers were highly knowledgeable about the area. Both vehicles were very comfortable, clean and spacious. Both were Mercedes in great condition. In the car I was in, I had the pleasure of driving with Francesco. The entire journey was comfortable, friendly, and professional. My parents had the pleasure of Yleanie driving them in another car. They all spoke very highly of her local knowledge, friendliness, and how enjoyable she made their trip to Taormina and was a big highlight of the trip. Taormina is definitely worth visiting. Take the time to wander the beautiful streets, sample some delicious gelato, and enjoy the stunning scenery. Don’t miss the Greco-Roman theatre, which offers some of the best views of the area. One of the best parts of the trip was the surprise they organised for my mom’s birthday. When we arrived back in Messina, they took us to a local cafe to try authentic cannolis. Then, they surprised my mom with a birthday cake and sang “Happy Birthday.” Even more special was that some of the locals from the cafe joined in with the singing, creating a beautiful moment for us all. The pickup from the ship was prompt, and they dropped us back at the ship at our requested time. The service from Get in Sicily was fantastic, and we all thank them so much. Everyone is still talking about the trip!

Last minute excursion - We arrived at the port of Messina and met the guys from Get in Sicily. We had no plans for the day but we were offered an excursion to Taormina and Castelmola. Beautiful experience, Taormina still festively decorated for the Christmas period. Recommended!!!

Unforgettable Sicilian Experience with GetinSicily Tour! - Hi everyone! I have to tell you about our incredible experience in Sicily with the GetinSicily tour through Savoca, Castelmola, and Taormina. We had such an amazing day with Francesco and Yle! The tour was perfectly organized, which made it so easy to relax and enjoy every moment. One of the best parts was tasting authentic Sicilian dishes—cannoli, lemon granita OH MY GOD. We can’t wait to come back and visit again. Huge thanks to Francesco and Yle for making our day so memorable!
