          Tour cancelled with 20 minutes notice. Said due to rain, but no rain forecast for Syracuse that day.
          We decided to travel to Syracuse ourselves anyway via bus on the same day and it was warm and dry - no unsafe streets as told to us by the tour company- not a puddle or raindrop in sight. This is very disappointing as we had booked it in advance and were really looking forward to learning more of the history of Sicily and really wanted yo visit Noto. If we had been told 24 hours in advance and not 20 minutes before we may have been able to reschedule. Next time the tour company needs to check one of the many available weather apps before deciding it would rain on the day.

          Air conditioned comfort with a lovely driver!
          Alfio was a fabulous driver, smooth and confident on the significant drive to Syracuse. He was great at letting us know when and where to go and helped us beat the crowds at each stop. It was a very warm day when we visited Syracuse, Ortigia and Noto and he gave us the perfect amount of time to see everything! We were lucky enough to go with another lovely couple, definitely good to do in a small group. The photos don’t do justice to the beauty of the places we visited, highly recommend this outing!

          Awesome day out
          We went on the day trip on the Saturday, group of 3 friends. Guiseppe was awesome, so friendly, good driver and we had lots of fun, he also had a good knowledge of the history. I will recommend this trip to people, just note that it is a long day, if you also want to rather go and shop and drink an Aperol Spritz you just tell Guiseppe and he adapts to your needs. Ortiga is beautiful and Noto out of this world, I'm not so sure if you need to see the Greek historic temples, not in June, July or August though, scaff holding everywhere and temporary stages, lights etc. because there are Greek Tragedy plays during the summer but the history is great, it's hot though, and lots of tourists, just keep that in mind. Love Sicily

          An excellent day out
          We had high hopes of the day. And they all came true. Giuseppe is a most excellent guide. We both thoroughly enjoyed our trip

          Best cultural tour
          This tour covers three of the top things to see in Sicily in one day. It also provides lunch at one of the top sandwich shops in Italy - featured on YouTube. Our guide/driver Giuseppe was helpful, friendly and informative. The office staff were very efficient texting us the Google map location for the pickup the day before with a picture as an added guide. There was sufficient time to explore at all three stops. We would highly recommend this tour if your are based in Taormina.

          Great visit to Siracusa and Noto.
          It was a wonderful day going to Siracusa and Noto fromTaormina with Giuseppe. He’s a great driver and guide. He’s very knowledgeable about the history of Sicily. We were able to see the archeological park in Siracusa and the island of Ortigia and then a sunset trip to Noto. We were able to explore on our own after some guidance from Giuseppe. I would highly recommend this trip if you want to visit some cultural highlights of Sicily.

          Exceptional!!!
          What a wonderful experience!! We had a delightful day, filled with so much information, great company, and beautiful places. Our guide Giuseppe was exceptional - he was so patient, knowledgeable, accommodating, so generous with his time. He had great suggestions and was truly passionate about the history of his region - we learned so much and we'll bring his stories about this special place back with us. We could not have had a better experience if we visited Syracusa and Noto on our own. These places are magical and can't be missed - we were not very close, staying in Taormina but this tour option made it possible and easy with the pickup. It was a full day (11 hours), but the time flew by and we were able to relax while Giuseppe took care of everything so we can enjoy every part of the excursion. The tour company is very professional, they had thought of every detail in planning the itinerary and the value could not be better. The customer service when we were booking was top notch as well - they responded immediately to every inquiry we had and made sure to ask our preferences - even accommodating my husband's diet when organizing lunch! We highly recommend this tour. We can't wait to take other tours from Sicily Day by Day when we come back to this beautiful island!! Thank you so much!
