we did this tour just to go to Castelbouno, the winery was a nice addition. Castelbuono is the home to the maker of the best panettone in all of Italy. We enjoyed the free samples & had only seen Castelbuono at night, 6 years ago. It was lovely to see it in the daylight, along with all the lovely residents. One huge concern...our original bus had a problem with the speaker so it was changed out nearby. We noticed that the tires on this bus were BALD, no treads! These buses go up high on narrow mountain roads, this is crazy & dangerous! Fortunately, our new bus had slightly better tires, but we were glad for the speaker glitch.

I and my wife went on a private tour of Noto, Modica and Ragusa with Alessio, the owner of Sicily Grand Tour. Alessio is a native of Sicily and speaks very clear English without any Italian accent, which is a great plus; particularly when he has to drive the car with his mask on and speak. He is very knowledgeable not just about Sicily but also gave informative tidbits of faraway cities like Trieste in the northeast of Italy. We found him very personable as he was always keen to engage in conversation, enthusiastically clicked our pictures with a DSLR, and of course took us to the best spots in each of the three towns. I can easily recommend him for Sicily tours as his communication/approach right from the time I contacted him via email/whatsapp until the very end of the tour was prompt, clear and amicable. SD

First off, I booked this tour December 30th at about 8:30pm via Viator fir Dec 31st tour. The operator emailed me right away to clarify things that made the tour go smoothly. When we arrived in Catania at 5:40 early in the morning, our driver Danilo was was waiting for us already. We had an early start, meaning our time was not wasted at all. When we reached in Taormina, I asked Danilo to check if we can add done of the Godfather places to check and he called his boss right away and was confirmed we can do it. I was happy and appreciated the flexibility. We were able to check the places that I wanted to go. Just a reminder, our driver is not a licensed tourist guide but he tells us where to go and drop us off and pick us up like “door to door”. I would suggest to google the best places to visit and tell the driver what you most like to visit and read all about it. You will appreciate more if you know the story behind that particular area. This tour works perfectly for us. Thank you Danilo for doing above and beyond of what you are doing. Cheers!

It’s day February 31st, 2020. All tourists have disappeared from the streets of Palermo. What happened to them? Have they left? Have they been kidnapped or trapped in a Trattoria? Sit back on your sofa and follow a Sicilian tour guide roaming the streets of Palermo in search of his travelers. Our guide will connect live on ZOOM to lead you through this adventure acting as a real time voice over.

To solve the case, our tour guide will have to walk around the monumental streets of the city but the magic will happen into the dark backstreets of the city center.

This was the fourth Streaty virtual cooking class I’ve taken and, like all the others, it was great fun and the results were a real wow. My husband and I couldn’t believe how well our cannoli turned out. Tasting them, we felt like we were back in Sicily. Marco and Daniela took us step-by-step through the process, sharing traditional techniques and tips – the kind of insider stuff you can’t get by just reading a recipe. It was very entertaining, too, plus good material is sent ahead of time, and it's easy to ask questions during class. We plan to make all the recipes again, and hope Marco offers more classes in future.

I highly recommend using Etna Sicily Tours if you want to see Sicily or going on an active volcano. I had the dream of my life, to came true with Roberto´s help. I walked on the top of Etna (3383 m) and seeing Stromboli. Roberto is the perfect guide - helpful, funny and a really great guy and friend <3 Grazie for everything Roberto ❤ See you next year when we come back :D <3

Incredible experience. Pasquale is a very nice and upbeat person. He took us to the best wineries. From the moment he picked us up it was clear that he had the entire day in perfect control. He is always professional and also fun. We really enjoyed the wine and food and the cellar tours. Pasquale even sent us several pictures from the day of fun that we had together. It was the highlight of our trip to Sicily. The communication was great - I asked Pasquale to arrange to have a cake for my girlfriend's birthday ... he made sure that at every destination there was a cake and everyone sang. He made me look like a hero! Thank you Pasquale!!!
