Day Trip From Catania - We took this trip with Mirco and had an excellent experience. It exceeded expectations (even with some rain) and we had the best small group. Everyone was engaged and Mirco was well prepared with information prior to each stop. Lunch in Castelmola was a delight and there was olenty of time to explore each stop. Highly recommend.

History, Culture, and Panoramas in Northeast Sicily - Andrea was an excellent driver who was knowledgeable about these three towns. We had lots of time on our own to explore and I enjoyed the tour very much.

Awesome driver and full day tour of beautiful Sicily. Great value! - Daniello was the most amazing driver and guide. His knowledge and love for Sicily is clearly evident as he explained the history of these areas to us in easy to understand English. He even parked the car in a cool spot while we toured with our free time. Beautiful mix of different areas. Full day we'll spend! Take this tour! Wear comfortable shoes. Excellent way to spend the day and to learn more about beautiful Sicily. What a great value too! We also met new friends. Thanks Daniello!
