Great experience - The trip to Messina, Taormina, and Castelmola was a major highlight of our vacation, thanks in part to our guide, Kimberly, who was truly exceptional. From the beginning, she was friendly, lively, personable, and well-informed. She epitomized what you would hope for in a tour guide. Although this tour was one of the most expensive for our family of seven (compared to the other tours we did on our 7-day cruise), it was certainly worth every penny. Don't hesitate to book with this company, and if possible, ask for Kimberly.

Sicily is a melting pot of cultures worth discovering! - Our tour of Taormina and Castelmola from Messina was absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, it was a truly memorable experience that perfectly showcased the beauty and charm of Sicily. This tour is an absolute must-do for anyone visiting Messina. It offers an incredible blend of history, culture, and spectacular scenery.

Unforgettable Tour of Castelmola and Taormina! - Castelmola is such a charming village with breathtaking panoramic views: we loved the cannoli and almond wine 😍😁 Taormina completely stole my heart! Our guide made the experience even more special by sharing local stories, hidden spots, and personal tips that we would have never discovered on our own. Thank you!

Wonderful people and lovely experience - Thank you so much for a lovely day. I highly recommend this company for your shore excursion in Messina. Diamond and our driver were awesome and Enzo made our day special with a celebration toast. They also didn’t mind some customization to fit our needs and the mini bus was perfect. Thank you again

Taor-eriffic Experience! - Driver and guide were exceptional. Getting to Castelmola was fun and the town quaint and welcoming. It is small so this should be your first stop before the crowds arrive. Taormina was the highlight of the trip, and most expensive due to all the shopping. Highly recommend for small groups
