Perfetto! - Carmelo was so sweet, and made sure we had an amazing day! We were able to ask him a lot of questions and have good conversations on the drive, and he had a great sense of humor. He took special care of my mother who has difficulty walking, and ensured everywhere we went we had five star service at the door. We asked him to join us on the wine tour, which Roberto from Cavanera Etnea really shined on! Hilarious and so fun to listen to, so informative. What a delight! We felt like the three most special ladies in the world. Thank you Carmelo and Roberto for making our day one to never forget. :) Highly recommend!

Taormina Wine Tasting Tour - We took a day tour in Taormina at a wine tasting and it was very wonderful. He was accommodating and communicated very well with my group so pick up and drop off at our cruise port was easy. He made it very easy to understand where we were and gave excellent recommendations on restaurants, food, etc. 10/10 Recommend!!

Bellisimo! - Our guide Paolino was amazing, knowledgeable, and considerate! The vineyard, La Gelsomina, is beautiful, and the wines are exquisite. I recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see an authentic side of Sicily!

Amazing time in Sicily! - The tour was great. Santino was very honest, spunky, always on time. We had a great time. And we had car karaoke! We definitely recommend his services. We did all in our own time. We even extended our time in one of the spots.

Not a tour, just a ride! - Was more like a taxi ride than a tour. Carmelo’s English was poor. He didnt understand anything we asked. He did t narrate anything on the ride to Toarmina His driving was excessively fast and scary. Would not recommend. Could have just booked a taxi ride for what we got.
