Our driver and guide Antonio was excellent. We could not have had a better experience. A careful driver we felt very safe in his hands as he drove us through the beautiful countryside of steep winding roads and also through the narrow streets of many towns and villages. His English is excellent, his knowledge of the history of Sicily is comprehensive and interesting, he is respected and well known in all of the places that we visited. And in one day there were many places: Mount Etna where we arrived early when it was peaceful, two wineries, one of where we had a huge delicious lunch and excellent wines, the other where we had yet more wine and even more food! We had also visited an interesting place that made the most unique honey we have ever tasted as well as by products of the honey. Towards the end of our amazing day we visited the Alcantara gorge. What a wonderful day and BIG thanks to Antonio for giving us such a beautiful experience of Sicily.…

Luca was the very best guide ever. He is an awesome driver and extremely knowledgeable about every location we visited- Savoca, Forza D'Agro, Castelmola, Taormina, Isola Bella lookout and even the astronomical clock in Messina. We can't wait to return and visit more of Sicily with Luca and Sicily Life Tours.…

Excellent tour company! Our driver was fantastic, he met us at the ship, and took us to taste olive oil and honey, then to Gambino winery for wine tasting lunch, and finally to Castiglione di Sicilia, an interesting village. He gave us lots of helpful information and we all had a wonderful day. Thank you!…

Our first inquiry regarding The Unknown Sicilian Villages and Godfather Tour was answered promptly by Sebastiano. An itinerary with a fair quote was described in detail which was a perfect match for our wishes and needs. We had one guest with mobility issues and these were discussed and addressed in advance. The day of the tour our guide, Luca, met us as expected and on time. Luca's expert driving on and around the winding, narrow roads of our itinerary was entertaining and informative. He provided extensive information about his island and Italian history. Professional, pleasant and asking about our comfort and needs. The walk through Savoca (GodfatherLand) was beautiful, mesmerizing and peaceful. The locals all seemed to know him and offered samples of their pastries and products. He provided facts and information relative to the filming of The Godfather and sequels that enlightened us. Forza D'Agro showed us what life in a typical Messina village is like today. Set high upon a hilltop, this Midieval Village has spectacular views of the countryside. Then a short walk thru the Midieval Village of Castlemola, with shops and cafes, was most enjoyable. Lunch in beautiful Taormina, with delicious, authentic Italian foods capped off an outstanding and memorable tour with our expert guide, Luca.…

We booked a transfer from Catania Airport to our Taormina Hotel and an all day tour of Siracusa with Sicily Life Tours. Both drivers were excellent, very courteous, spoke excellent English, and gave us great information about the area. During our Siracusa trip they also booked a tour guide for our visit to the archeological area and Ortigia. Our driver, Lucas and tour guide, Italo were great. They made sure that our trip was comfortable and provided us with great information. They arranged for us to sample the local nougat at Condorelli and then got us a reservation for an amazing lunch at La Salumeria - Fratelli Burgio, by the fish market. After our lunch we had the best gelato and coffee of our entire Sicily trip at Levante Gelato Artiginale, levantegelateria.com. Thank you Sicily Life Tours for helping us have an amazing experience in Sicily. Ramiro and Nicole, Davis, California.…
