We had an amazing day with Ricardo. He was much more than a driver, and explained many things during the entire tour. He also helped guide us through different areas to ensure we knew where we were going before he left us with time to explore. We particularly enjoyed the archaeological park. We did that first and it was really nice to see before the crowds descended.

While the driver was friendly he was not engaged in telling us what we were seeing or any information about the area unless specifically asked. Not being from here we were relying on our driver to be more engaged and informative

Our driver Martino arrived on time and the car was very comfortable. We had a very pleasant day checking out the sites. Martino was very helpful by explaining where to go and how long it may take to explore. We highly recommend this private tour.

Private driver with nice air conditioned vehicle. Ricardo was so helpful with tips and suggestions at each spot, he went above and beyond the “driver” duties. He walked us into each town and helped us buy tickets when needed. Throughout the drive we could Also ask questions about the towns and Sicily in general. Highly recommend!
