An amazing experience - An amazing, unforgettable tour with friends. Filippo and Erika far exceeded any expectations we had and the scenarios we have seen made it all even better. Filippo is an excellent driver and Erika was really knowledgeable and thoughtful about everything we needed. The van was such a luxury, comfortable and clean. There are not enough words to describe!! Please put Sicily on your bucket list and book a tour with them, you won’t be disappointed!

Excellent Experience!! - We had a fabulous experience!! Erica and Filippo were so friendly and accommodating. Eric shared so much info on the history and life in Sicily, specifically Taormina and Messina. We had originally scheduled one of their private preplanned tours, but decided to make some changes as we went along and they didn’t skip a beat. They even arranged for a private cannoli tasting and made some extra stops in Messina. I highly recommend this team for their professionalism and hospitality. They are truly fabulous ambassadors of their homeland!

Excellent place - port value for this excursion - Taormina was amazing, a beautiful place and lots to see and do - public gardens, shopping, isola Bella, all well worth the trip. The downside was the price versus the value - we paid close to $ 1000 Cdn for essentially a taxi ride to and from the cruise port. Just not worth the $$$
