This was a fabulous trip, with a well thought-out itinerary enhanced by a wonderful guide, a great group of people, delicious Italian food and beautiful weather.
We had a wonderful day together with Alfredo. Alfredo was the best guide ever!! He was excellent and was so fluent in english, he told us many interesting stories. He is an expert in Sicilian history and culture. he was both singing and dancing for us-we enjoyed it a lot. But most of all, he was such a service minded and understanding person. For example we were come minutes late in the morning and then we enjoyed the tour at the winery so much that we caused a delay in Alfredo's schedule but he was so humble and understanding. We highly recommend it to everyone travelling to Sicily.
Loved this small group tour. It was a perfect balance of organized activities and free time. All the hotels were beautiful and were in great locations for walking to all the busy areas. Our guides were knowledgeable and easy going. Would highly recommend to anyone.
Sicily is a fascinating treasure trove of history and beauty. This trip allows you to experience the Sicilian way of life using food as a lure to explore its villages, towns and landscape as you move from one side of the island to the other.
This is our first private tour and I must say it met all our expectations. Our driver/guide Carlo took very good care of us, told us informative and amusing stories along the way and took us to wonderful restaurants. He made sure all our needs our taken cared of. In Sicily especially I think the private tour is a big advantage as there are many places where only small vehicles can go through. We made the right decision in choosing this tour.
