A tour with Alessandro Booking Sicily Tours can be special for several reasons, especially if the focus is on the quality of the experience and the authenticity of the explorations. Here are some elements that could make a tour with him unique:
1. In-depth knowledge of Sicilian History and Culture
Alessandro could have a thorough knowledge of Sicilian history, art and culture, offering participants an authentic immersion in local tradition. This makes the tour not only a visual experience, but also a cultural one, with little-known historical details and tales enriching the visit.
2. Authentic and Local Experiences
One aspect that could distinguish Alessandro’s tour is access to authentic experiences that are often not included in mass tours. This could mean visits to small villages, tastings of local products such as cannoli and almond wine.

What To Expect
Messina
The trip will be a fantastic experience. We will travel approximately 45 minutes on the motorway from Messina to Taormina.
Castelmola
Once you arrive in Castelmola you can admire one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, taste the almond wine of the famous Bar Turrisi. The characteristic of the bar is the presence of phallic shapes used as decoration. These shapes are not to be designated as a symbol of vulgarity, but as a symbol of fertility, prosperity and freedom according to Greek culture. Plus Alex will take you to taste some delicious Sicilian cannoli from the legendary Stefania Pittitti.

5.00We had a great day visiting Castelmola and Taormina. Auroa was a fantastic guide. She was very knowledgeable when we had questions. We were able to spend some extra time in Taormina taking in the beautiful landscape and views while doing a little shopping. We had one our best meals yet at Mamma Rosa in Taormina. All around very good day! Would recommend if you are porting in Messina!

5.00Kimberly and our driver were fantastic tour guides on one of our most anticipated visits on our trip through Europe. Taormina captured our heart last year, but experiencing it a second time through the passion and knowledgeable expertise of our tour guide made it feel like we were experiencing Sicily the first time all over again. She made sure we took multiple stops along the way to explore lesser known views, and delivered a customized experience based on our preferences. Our driver served us chilled water throughout the trip, which was a lifesaver! The recommendation of where to find the best food and cannolis led to some of the best food we’ve ever tried. Sicily has been one of our favorite stops on our trip, and thanks to the warmth be hospitality of Kimberly and our driver, we look forward to coming back again.
