- JJen· September 28th, 2017The tour was great with a selection of great cities. Our tour guide Marina, was one of the best. So sweet, organized and knowledable! My only constructive criticism would be to have hotels in better locations. Tormina, Sorrento and Agrigento were out of the way. Palermo was the best location!Show moreTrip date: September 2017
