Excellent tour, our guide Valeria took us through the streets of Savoca where The Godfather was filmed, she also took us through Taormina, everything was super well organized and detailed.
I highly recommend it, my husband and I were very happy.
Also, the day before this tour, we had another tour which was cancelled, so we are very grateful because this agency saved us at the last minute so we didn't miss our last day in Taormina and Savoca as we had planned.

We also told him that we liked the White Lotus series and he took us to the hotel and the places where it was filmed ❤️

We had a lovely day with our driver Valentino. He took us to Savoca and we had a relaxing coffee at the Bar Vitello, walked up to the church and enjoyed the area. Our time in Taormino was super as well. We had been to the Greek amphitheatre the day before on our 10 day bus tour, so we got to see other parts of the town and try some typical street food. We even got to go into the courtyard of the Four Seasons hotel where White Lotus was filmed. Another couple who were in the vehicle when we got picked up, were taken to their hotel due to some issue. And so, we had the whole day just us....it was great. Thank you.

Called me the day before, said my 1pm booking had to be 9am. Ok no problem, my private car I booked showed up and the driver told me it was with another couple and we were going to pick them up. Called the operator of the tour (the driver was a 3rd party driver for the day) and she said no, this is your tour and argued with me, yelling at me on the phone. I said well I’m only in Catania one day, can we fix this? I’ll split the car with the other couple and tried to find a solution as the tour was advertised as private. She said no, I’ll refund you, I don’t care. I asked for a solution, she said I don’t care. I said I’m only here one day, I’d like to still go, she said no, I refund you. I told her I wasn’t going to leave her a good review on Viator for how rude she was being, and she got even more mad and told the driver to drop me where I was which was about 3 miles from my hotel. She said she has enough business and doesn’t care. The driver was a hired guy, a really nice guy and brought me to my hotel luckily.
Then I called Viator to get my money back for the day, they needed to call her, after they called her she said she was going to book me another shuttle with someone who doesn’t speak English. After she told the driver to drop me where I was, I couldn’t trust her to bring me where I needed to go. This operator tried to make me full stupid, bullied me into an earlier time, lied about the booking being private, lied to Viator, told the driver to kick me out, and yelled at me. I never raised my voice once, I tried to find a solution, and in the end was quiet in front of the other guests about what happened because the driver was embarrassed and felt terrible for how I was treated and I wanted him to have a good day with the other older couple we picked up and not ruin their day too. I would stay far away from this lady and book something from a more reputable group.

Matteo was a great guide. He was super friendly. He was full of information and very accommodating. It was a super hot day in Catania, the company was helpful in moving our tour earlier in the day to get out of the city.

The tour was excellent. Our guide Matteo and the tour operator Valeria were very helpful and friendly. Matteo gave us information about Sicily’s past. The locations visited were also very nice. I recommend this tour company to all visitors in the area.
