Mobile ticket

A tour with Alessandro 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.

Additional Info

Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller

    Our family had an amazing day in Sicily. Every place we visited on the itinerary was totally worth it, you can stay extra in the places if you want they all have hiden gems. You will see things eat things and smell things that are out of this world. Our guide and driver we professional, perfect with our babies and family and were accommodating to our needy needs! The company communications and ability to have a great tour for your family is very top tier. Can’t say enough about them.

    We contacted them to arrange a private tour for five people, and from the very beginning they were extremely helpful and responsive. Everything was organized smoothly and professionally. Our driver was truly wonderful — friendly, attentive, and always in a great mood, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a beautiful and memorable tour experience. We would definitely recommend them!

  • Very professional! Valus for money.

  • Amazing tour of Sicily

    We had an amazing tour with Alessandro - were picked up at our ship, then driven to Savoca to see The Godfather sights and have a coffee. Then to Taormina and Castelmola, with stops for photos, shopping and food/coffees as needed. One of our group has limited mobility and was accommodated wonderfully. I highly recommend this private tour for being able to get close to sights and have a personal touch. This tour was absolutely the highlight of our Mediterranean cruise!

    My husband previously wrote a great review but I wanted to add something. We traveled with my dad in an electric wheelchair and Alessandro and Marisa made sure we took accessible routes. We got to see so much and learned a lot of history while having so much fun!

  • Marisa and Alessandro, guides in Sicily

    Marisa and Alessandro were excellent as guide and driver in Sicily, obviously very knowledgeable and informative, and lots of fun as well. They were very well prepared too, as we ran into some unexpected rain and they had 4 umbrellas handy. We highly recommend them to cruise travelers over the excursions the cruise lines provide. Ask them to take you to the Turrisi Bar!

  • Don't hesitate! Go ahead!

    Great guide!!!! We had a stress-free time. Alessandro waited for us to get off the boat and explained what to see and what to do in the different villages. Great time I recommend +++
