Excellent way to experience three important sites in one day. Salvatore was a very good communicator, giving us the historical background of the places as well as tips on what to concentrate on in our free time. Small group, worth doing.

Salvatore was very entertaining, knowledgeable & friendly throughout the entire tour. His love & passion for the area we visited was evident as he showcased its history & charm. Plenty of free time & photo ops. Safe driver. Step stool would have been helpful for easier entry & exit from the van.
Syracuse with comfort

Simple Transportation, but Little More

It’s mostly just transportation to the three sites. The driver was friendly and knowledgeable, but at Noto and Siracusa, he simply let us out of the van to wander on our own. Only at Ortigia did he walk with us and show us the story of the island. This is a common thread with most of these small group tours you book online. It’s just a van and a driver. I wish Sicily’s tour culture wasn’t so frosty and hands-off. We felt like we missed a lot by not engaging with a local about their history and culture.
