Sicily Family Trips/Tours Reviews
- Magical Sicily - 7 Days
Lots of variety in the locations allowing a full insight into Sicily. Fairly rushed though, with a bit too much time on the bus. For a quick tour of Sicily in limited time you will see a lot. A few fun activities like the wine tasting. Tour guide, Cette, and driver, Luca, were excellent.
- Classic Sicily - 8 Days/7 Nights
Super beautiful Great guide
The tour was absolutely beautiful. South Sicily is a must visit at least once in your lifetime. From charming little towns to stunning beaches, every stop felt special. The food and especially the seafood was exceptional fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The locals were incredibly warm and welcoming, which made the trip even more enjoyable. Overall, Sicily truly embodies the spirit of a vacation!

What's the recommended age for children on Sicily family tours?
Sicily family tours generally accept children between 4-12 years old with select operators extending this range down to age 2.
