- MDMargaret· September 11th, 2024Really enjoyable, guides were very informative and helpful. Accommodation could improve, hotel in Taormina and Siracusa were more a 3 star not 4 Star, would rather pay a bit more and have better appointed rooms, but great value for money.Show moreTrip date: September 2024
- Susan· July 29th, 2024The cooking class in Taormina was great. The winery outside Taormina was very nice. The winery near Mt. Etna was nice. The Drive to Syracuse with stop in Noto was fine but not too much info was given about Syracuse when we were dropped off. We had to figure out where the main shops, restaurants, etc were on our own. Walking tour of Ortigia was mediocre. Guide didn’t seem too into it and was late to arrive. The drive to Palermo was very long and the driver/guide barely talked to us. Never told anything about the places/towns we were driving by etc. The Palermo tour guide was the best of all. Very informative and engaging. Enjoyed our trip and enjoyed Taormina and Palermo the most.Show moreSicily Activities commented on this reviewHi Susan, thank you so much for your feedback and we are so happy you enjoyed the tour with us!

Asked on April 24th, 2025Can you tell me the cost of hotel upgrades for this tour and the names of the hotels?
Sicily ActivitiesOperator•Written April 2025Hotels included are the following 4 stars centrally located: Ariston in Taormina with seaview room and swimming pool, Livingston in Syracuse, Politeama in Palermo. We can also upgrade the hotels but honestly price will go a lot up, since the 4 stars boutique or 5 stars has increased their price a lot. However here a combination of upgraded hotels: in Taormina: Hotel Villa Fiorita 4 stars boutique, in Syracuse: Palazzo Artemide 4 stars boutique, in Palermo: Palazzo Liberty 4 stars boutique. Total supplement to be paid locally: 2495€
