A great Sicilian - Fabulous tour and our tour guide Mariarita and Giuseppe our driver were excellent. Mariarita unlike some guides did NOT talk nonstop and we had plenty of free time in both places. Definitely recommend.

Fabulous tour! - Our local guide, Sara, was very knowledgeable. We enjoyed both towns although Taormina was very busy. It’s worth going to Casteloma for the even better views of Mt. Etna.

Stunning Tour with a Fantastic Guide - Our tour of Taormina and Castelmola was unforgettable, made even more special by our incredible guide, Mariarita. She was warm, knowledgeable, and passionate about the region, bringing the history and charm of both towns to life. Taormina’s ancient theater and scenic streets were breathtaking, and the peaceful hilltop village of Castelmola offered unforgettable views and authentic local flavor. A perfect day in Sicily, thanks to Mariarita’s exceptional guidance!

Taormina bela bela - Taormina in Sicily was certainly the most beautiful in Italy 🇮🇹 an old town, but very organized, original, clean, excellent food options, shopping and souvenir. The price is somewhat elevated compared to other cities in Italy.

Awesome day in Sicily! - Sabrina, our tour guide was very knowledgable about the region. Her in depth comments about vegetation, the historic timetable of the castle and the amphitheater in Taormina was remarkable. Bravo!

Incredible from start to finish - Highly recommend - The communication from this group prior to the excursion was "above and beyond". Instructions were clear and reminders were sent. The company personalized communications and made me feel valued. They were quick to respond to questions ahead of the excursion. The trip itself was also amazing and the tour guide and driver were informative and personable. If you get motion sickness at all, I advise taking Gravol ahead of time as the roads up to the top of Castelmola are a little curvy. Truly a great day and I'm happy to have booked with this company. They were attentive to timing and got us back to the cruise ship in plenty of time before departure. I'd book with them again!
