We had the absolute best time on all of our tours with Sicily activities! We cannot rave enough about our guides, they were amazing. Valerio, Carlos and Denise were beyond knowledgeable, kind, accommodating and fun. We were traveling with our 1 year old baby and they were so sweet to make sure that baby was happy the entire time. The walking food and history tour of Taormina was incredible, full of amazing eats and tons of history. The Etna wine tour was incredible with the best views, snacks, wine and lunch afterwards. Our tour to Syracuse and Ortigia was stunning. There was so much history to see in such a beautiful town, capped off with a beautiful lunch. The Godfather tour was also so fun, we saw so many of the places in the movie and soaked in all of the beauty and history, also with an amazing lunch. We can’t say enough about the company and how wonderful they were always checking in to make sure we were happy. We highly recommend this company, their fabulous tours and most amazing guides to make your trip to Sicily complete!This is a very good choice because you do save money by booking the three together and these tours covered most of what we wanted to do in Taormina.

This is a very good choice because you do save money by booking the three together and these tours covered most of what we wanted to do in Taormina. We did the food tour on our first evening. The guide, Salvo, was excellent; really interestiung, entertaining and interested in his guests. He's clearly passionate about his job, friendly and highly professional. He allowed the different parties on the tour to mix and enjoy each otehrs company. The three stops were all very good; nice food and wine and all explained clearly. The second trip was the Etna food and wine tour. We were lucky to have Salvo again and again he managed to get all of the differnt parties talking and enjoying the day. The winery was beautful with excellent service, generous tastings and delicious food. This was followed by a stop at a beautiful restaurant, again with great local wine and a tasty meal. The final trip was the Godfather tour - fun, informative, a nice meal and an interesting guide (sorry I don't recall his name).Rosario and Valerio have been beautiful interpreters of Sicilian culture. We feel included and for foreigners that is the ultimate joy.
