With the half-day Godfather tour, Dream Island will take you back in time to discover the ancient and sunny Sicilian villages chosen by Francis Ford Coppola as the setting for the film "The Godfather".
The first stop is the Castello degli Schiavi, nicknamed "Villa Corleone", where you will have the opportunity to relive the famous scenes of the film, read the original documents of the production, admire photographs taken during filming, and become protagonists being immortalized with photos and videos in those same places, recreating the famous scenes from "The Godfather".
The second stop is Savoca, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, where you can visit the famous Bar Vitelli, where Don Micheal Corleone asked for the hand of Apollonia. We will conclude our tour with a visit to the Church of San Nicolò, where the wedding scene between Michael Corleone and Apollonia was set.
With this tour you can relive the magic of the film and discover the hidden beauty of Sicily!

We had the best day ever! We had a private tour with Salvatore Sorrentino.
The owner of the house where a large part of the movie was filmed took us on a tour. He was enthusiastic, proud, passionate and made you part of the movie. The guide Salvatore took all the time we needed and made sure we had a great and unforgettable experience. As as a fan of the trilogy we would recommend this trip.
When you book this tour make sure you ask for Salvatore.

We did a tour with Salvatore and Lucrezia. It was a private tour and the car they came in with had water for us. The tour guides were really friendly and allowed us to take our time and take as much pictures as we want and we did not need to rush. The locations itself were also incredible and nice to see. The castello had a really nice owner who was passionate about the history. The church we visited was also very good looking and the same as in the movies.
We are very happy we were able to go on this tour. Definitely recommended

I came to Sicily for one reason and one reason only - The Godfather Tour. I compared tours online and am very grateful I chose Dream Island. I worked with Richard in the office for months, who was so helpful and patient with me as we scheduled my tour. Gianni was my tour guide and he was knowledgeable, engaging and a good driver - which is critical in Sicily! The itinerary is special since Dream Island has relationships that allow its participants to visit places which the cruise ship passengers don't get to see. It was an absolutely PERFECT DAY. I would not have changed anything and I am so glad I chose Dream Island for my tour, since it was the only reason I came to Sicily.

Our guide Salvatore was great. Spoke good English, took his time and drove safely. He knew a lot. There were only 3 of us. Mother, son and the guide. Visiting the villa was a goosebump moment. The Baron himself (80 years!) gave the tour. Took beautiful pictures of us. During our visit to the church, Ave Maria blared through the valley, giving us goosebumps again. A day you will never forget. Appointment at the meeting point and contact in advance with dreamisland via the app was very pleasant. Top!

The tour was excellent and Salvatore is a friendly and very knowledgeable guide. We got to see the inside of villa corleone and learn about the history of the house. We went to savoca and had brunch at bar vitelli and the church. Was an awesome experience and would highly recommend.

Incredible experience. The first part, at the house where Al Pacino is in hiding, was phenomenal. Just the wife and I with an English speaking guide to show us around. Simply amazing. Visiting the church afterwards etc was good, but the house alone was worth the price! Guisseppe our driver wasn’t English speaking, but who cares? Get Google translate, we didn’t need the back story being driven to the places, and the guy was lovely. Organizers were so great to deal with, we booked the same driver the next day to take us to Taormina. Hugely recommend these guys

The driver was on time and picked us up at our hotel. Our first stop was Savoca where we saw Bar Vitelli and the Church. We were able to spend as much time as we wanted in the village and it was great to experience the Godfather film. However there was NO tour guide for us in Savoca. The driver was very pleasant and took pictures for us in front of locations HOWEVER he spoke NO English. We had to communicate through Google translator the entire time. We read in other reviews that people got information during their drive through the Sicilian hills but our driver could not provide that for us. When we arrived at the Villa, the guide there spoke ALMOST NO English. I specifically asked for English speaking guides when I booked the tour. The guide at the Villa showed us a clip from the movie and we got more information seeing the exact locations of filming from the clip than we did from the guide.
