An exclusive tour to Cefalu and Monreale - This has been one of the best tours I’ve ever experienced in Sicily! Our guide, Alexandra, was incredibly nice and passionate about her work. Our driver, Marco, was also excellent. We had a fantastic time in Cefalù!

Great experience! - We had such a great experience with Alexandra! She was very informative and you can tell she really enjoys what she does and loves Sicily! Which we also really love now and can't wait to come back to. We were very lucky to have the tour to ourselves and had an overall amazing experience. She was also really helpful with other suggestions around Palermo. We highly suggest booking with this company. They were great with communicating with us from the moment we booked and even offered to help with other suggestions in Palermo.

Customer service comes first - Tatiana really puts the customer first. She did not cancel the tour when it was only my wife and I. She even brought towels for us to borrow. When she told us that Monreale is known for bread, she went the extra mile to find us a bakery to buy the bread. She is very enthusiastic about the history of the area. We were tired and finished early. She was so nice and went out of her way to take us to our hotel.

Great day trip - Our guide, Tatiana could not have been more helpful, flexible and accommodating. She is very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sharing what she knows. One of my goals for the trip was to have time to climb La Rocca in Cefalù and she made sure to arrange that. Since we only had a limited time in Sicily, this tour allowed me to share with my brother and son the fabulous cathedral AND the marvelous town of Cefalù.

They made our day! - Before we even reached Palermo they were in contact with us, giving us great tips and help. The tour was a complete pleasure, Alicia is the sweetest guide I have ever met and made sure that we all had a wonderful time. She encouraged us to ask any questions about anything, saying “Don’t be shy!” We certainly weren’t shy and we had a wonderful time. If you want to go with someone whose objective is for you to enjoy your visit, this is them!

Not the tour if you want a knowledgeable guide to describe the mosaics at the Monreale and Cefalù cathedrals - This was the wrong tour for us. I expected a knowledgeable guide to describe the beautiful mosaics in Monreale and Cefalù cathedrals. Instead, we got a cursory tour of Morreale and no guided tour at all at Cefalù cathedral. In addition, our guide left us for several hours; paying for a guide was not worth it at all. On the other hand, our driver was great. He drove us quickly and safely through the tricky streets of Monreale and Cefalù. He gave us information on sights on the drive from Monreale to Cefalù, when our guide was not with us. Although our guide wasn’t worth the cost, we were able to adjust the timing of our trip because we were the only ones on the tour. I would recommend more time in Monreale than the tour suggests.
