Private Messina tour from cruise port

5.00This tour was professionally handled in a great manner. From pre trip communication to meeting at the port to the tour and drop off back at port, this was a great experience. Lilllo was early to pick us up ( we were early too as the pick up was right as we disembarked!). He shared historical, cultural and fun information as we went along the tour. Due to weather, the itinerary was adjusted and we visited unexpected places for a fun treat. He gave us choices and ample time to explore Taormina and Castlemola with a view of Isola Bella. He pointed out fun facts and locations about White Lotus and The Godfather. We chose not to go to the beach because of rain. Transportation was totally comfortable and, on the return to Messina, we were treated with REAL gelato and cannoli’s. The church there was spectacular inside. Our group of 7 had a great experience and much thanks to Lillo for taking us around and teaching us about this lovely place.

5.00This tour was a highlight of our 10 day Mediterranean cruise for sure. Taormina and Isola Bella were beautiful places that we enjoyed visiting very much. Our tour guide Oleksandra was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We learned a lot about the history and culture of Sicily during our time with her. We loved trying the granita and cannolis at the end of the tour in Messina. Every place we visited was lots of fun. We would recommend this tour to anyone.

5.00Wonderful day spent with a wonderful driver and guide! We learned about Taormina, took memorable pictures with the stunning views as our background and then cooled off with a nice swim at the beach. We traveled with our 4 teenage boys and 2 elderly parents. The parents did not want to go to the beach so they were taken to a nearby restaurant where they said they had the best meal of their trip. Highly recommend this tour!!
