A delightful day tour to Cefalu town and Caccamo castle - A great tour with a great guide. There were only 4 of us. The two sites were really interesting and the guide gave just the right amount of detail, so we didn’t feel overwhelmed. It was a full day with a delicious Sicilian snack stop en route to Cefalù, the town itself being really picturesque. Watch out for most shops shutting at 1pm. We had the Caccoma castle virtually to ourselves. Again, very picturesque. A highly recommended day tour.

Cefalu and Caccamo Castle - Our tour with Alexandra was absolutely outstanding! From the moment we met her, she was warm, welcoming, and incredibly knowledgeable. She has a true passion for what she does, and it shines through in the way she shares history, culture, and little hidden gems that you wouldn’t find in a guidebook. Alexandra kept the tour engaging and fun, tailoring the experience perfectly to our group’s interests. She was patient, attentive, and made sure everyone felt included. Her storytelling brought the sites to life, and her sense of humor made the day even more enjoyable.

Great Tour and Nice Off the Beaten Path Spot - This was a wonderful experience! We were looking for a little something different as we already had something booked to take us to Monreale and most tours to Cefalù included this stop. The tour with Tatiana was unique with a guided tour of Cefalù and then lots of free time, plus the additional stop of Caccamo with the medieval castle which was very different and lots of history. The view from the top was beautiful and it was nice to see how excited Tatiana was to share her knowledge with us. Cefalù was so beautiful and while busy our start time was early which was smart, so we hit the peak sites before the crowds and then our free time we could wander as we wanted. Enough time to swim for a bit or get a nice lunch- we chose to shop and have a lovely drink overlooking the sea. Giuseppe was our driver and he was safe, professional and helpful. We ended up being the only two who booked for that day but they still ran the tour which was so lovely- would 10/10 recommend for 2 great stops, wonderful history and enthusiasm for Sicily and the area in general. Tatiana even gave us some wonderful dinner and drink recommendations that we can’t wait to check out. Thank you!

This was one of the best... - This was one of the best tours we have ever taken! Tatianna was a wonderful tour guide and gave us personal attention. She was so knowledgeable about Cefalù and the Caccano castle. She shared with us about the history of Sicily and was available to answered any questions both before and after the tour. When we return to Sicily, we will definitely schedule tours with Tatianna.

Sicilian Gems - Tatiana and Giuseppe (driver) were terrific. Tatiana is warm, accommodating, and shares all her extensive knowledge about Sicily, cephalu and caccamo castle. She is very passionate about Sicily. She showed us lots of hidden gems in Cefalu and caccamo castle. She also recommended amazing things for Palermo. Even though it was a rainy day Tatiana filled our excursion with sunshine! She is a Sicilian gem !

Cerfalu is Amazing, but the castle was a let down. - Tour of Cerfalu was fantastic. The Castillo di Carrabo not so much. Cerfalu was beautiful and so much to see. A tour of this amazing village alone was great. The tour of Castillo di Carrabo was not worth the time or the steep walk up. If the total trip was to Cerfalu we would have been happier, especially if it included lunch. Since it did not include lunch the tour overall is way too expensive.
