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!!
Jewel of Sicily!

5.00We were picked up at time right at the cruise terminal exit by the owner, Nicola., joined by guide Silvia. We wanted the flexibility of a private tour, and we got it. We decided at the last minute we wanted to see Savoca( Godfather Bar Vitelli). We headed there straight away: wonderful hilltop town! Silvia helped us order cappuccinos and pastries. Off we went to Taormina….which absolutely lives up to the hype. Silvie stayed with us in town, and was most helpful and informative! She recommended a wonderful sandwich place for lunch. Unfortunately the 130 stairs to the Isola Beach were going to be a challenge for me with my broken foot in a boot… saw it from a picturesque overlook: guess I will have to go back! We headed back to Messina and stopped at the beautiful cathedral and clock tower before ending our tour tasting granitas and cannolis at a quiet bistro near the port. Highly recommend this tour !
