    This tour was a fabulous experience .we stayed in 3 locations Taormina, Ortigia and Palermo. The service from communication, pick up and guided tours was outstanding. Everyday we were driven in an air conditioned mini van to some exquisite locations, restaurants, wineries, cultural sights, archaeological sights , Mt Etna. You really get a taste of “all things Sicily”. Our guides were so knowledgeable and really had passion for their island. Communication was easy even before we left Australia and whilst on tour we were always in touch with details of each days activities via what’s app. We also had free time to explore on our own with great suggestions from our guides. The hotels we stayed in were of very good standard 4 star and in great locations to explore. We cannot fault this tour and if you want a good introduction to Sicily this tour is perfect. It is a small group of 2-8 people . We were the only 2 on this tour . A special thanks to all our guides Luigi, Valerio, Oratzio, Giuseppe, Sam and Claudio..Also Graziana and Max who communicated every day with us . THANK YOU

    Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to see the two Godfather villages led by an expert! We had another tour planned, but it did not include these two villages, so I set this up and couldn’t have been more pleased. It was detailed, spirited, and full of beauty!
