    When we arrived in Sicily at hotel they didn’t have our reservations, after 15-20 inutes it got straightened out. On this tour we were never informed that we had to pay city taxes after each stay in every hotel in additition water and bevages were an additional charge at each dinner. On second day of tour at a lunch provided part of our group of 10 was sitting at a rear table at luncheon provided and was being served last, tour guide said to meet in front of restaurant at 2:30 when we all got their at 2:30 he and the group already left to complete that phase of tour. We all waited till 4:30 for them to return and we were drenched since it started raining

    What a great tour of Sicily. It was everything as stated. The churches and temples are breathtaking. Prompt on picking and dropping off at the airport. Our tour driver Pina was excellent don’t know how he drives around Sicily, some roads are narrow. Our tour director, Puligo? Was so caring and took time to answer questions. If you don’t like seafood put that on your paper for allergies. I did not and there are lots of fish and eggplant dishes. My tour director did set me up with different food after i didn’t eat the first time. Overall perfect tour and we had great weather. The communication between Tourradar and me setting all of this up was amazing, they definitely responded when i had a question.

    Most of our 10 day tour of Sicily was fine. Unfortunately my daughter's accommodation in Catania was not provided as requested and paid for, even though we were informed that it was. This caused us a lot of unnecessary stress. I have requested a refund for my daughter but, even though I was told that my daughter would be given a refund, I was told that they need to have some information confirmed first. The first two guides were great - Antonella and Rita and also our driver Pino.Unfortunately though, the last guide Maria Grazia, could've made more effort by providing information while we were all on the bus heading to our destinations. The first 2 guides gave us information about buildings, castles and other landmarks on the ride. Instead, it was a quiet and boring ride to Erice and Segesta. We would suggest to visit the Turkish Steps instead of the Salt Pans, especially because they're not too far away from each other. All hotel accommodation was good as well as breakfasts. Hotel staff also good.

    Our trip to Sicily was wonderful...the island and its' sights amazing, the people generous and caring, the food outstanding. Thanks to Omar, the choice of hotels was thoughtful and with only one exception, we were delighted with each of his choices. We were in marvelous hands with our driver Eusebio! All in all, a marvelous time!

    There are something to improve: the group stated with 55 travels when supposed no more than 40. This travel is not for everyone, because is hard to walk in many places. I recommend for people between 14 and 60 in good condition of health and good legs.

    We covered very interesting places. I learned a lot about Sicily. The guides were excellent, handpicked. Good hotels, efficient bus drivers. I highly recommend this tour. I never imagined so much could be explored in so little time. This was an unforgettable experience. Tour Radar planned every step in detail to help us learn about Sicily and its history. I enjoyed most of the meals and the hotels were comfortable and accesible to the central areas of every city we visited so we could walk at night to enjoy the surroundings. I definitely recommend this trip to everyone, although it requires some level of strength to do all the walking. Don't be afraid. It is worth the money and the effort!!!

    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      The entry fees to the various Churches, Museums, Archaeological parks, are not included in the total price. But, can be purchased in advance,with an add on package including also the local city taxes. Otherwise, they can be paid in cash only on the spot ,through our tour leader. Yes, the transfer from the Airport to the Hotel is included in the total price. Being a private transfer, it is arranged according to the arrival times of the customers' flights, there is no fixed time. The size of the group is variable, around 35 -40 people during the high season months, such as May, September, October. While it is usually between 25 to 35 during the other months. No, the tour is carry out in English and in Spanish language. There is a monolingual group in English only and another group in Spanish . I can check re the audio guide,but I think for certain sites ( Like The Valley of the Temples) there should be audio guides in French too. Yes of course, it's possible and the tariff is even a bit lower than double room for 2 adults.
