Cruise stop in Messina - We had Roberto as our guide and he was great! His walking pace was perfect for the group of 11. He took us to all of the cultural spots in downtown area. We stopped at a breakfast spot, an olive oil shop, lunch, and then a desert spot. We also stopped at the Cathedral at noon for the bell tower. It was a great 4 hours of walking around. I highly recommend it for any visit to Messina!

Amazing guide, amazing food, better value. - Roberto was incredible. He treated us like we were old friends. The food stops we made were amazing. This was not our first time in Italy and we’ve had some great food in the past, but nothing like what he showed us. We avoided the tourist traps and went to the spots full of locals. This tour was easily worth twice what we paid. Even better, Roberto had the route down to a science, always knowing where the shade would be for a comfortable afternoon.

Good amount of food, great guide - Good amount and variety of food! Roberto was a great guide. Very hot in the summer especially on a sunny day, but not their fault and he tried to walk in the shade when possible.
