Great tour and so fun to see the Godfather locations. We are really glad we did it. We loved the towns we visited. They were so beautiful. We especially loved Savoca and the walk you could do there!
Loved the tour! Sam and Gino were fantastic. Sam really showed his passion for what we were touring. It made the experience that much better. Gino got us there quickly and safely, thank you! It is as much a tour of Sicily as it is for the Godfather, which we really enjoyed. We got to explore plenty on our own as well and at our own pace. I’d highly recommend this tour to anyone!
Very informative and relaxing! Samuel and Gino were great! Gino made a scary ride for us very relaxing. Samuel was such an informed young man. He made it fun and personal. Look forward to seeing his name on the big screen one day! Could not imagine two better gentlemen to show me the home of my grandparents! Such a great day for all of us! Don’t miss out on this expedience! Grazie!!!!
We recently had a wonderful experience on the Godfather tour in Sicily with our family of 6! Our guide, Sam, was incredibly accommodating and friendly. We were visiting our son, who's currently deployed there, and Sam was great about adjusting the tour schedule to fit our needs. While the tour was originally advertised as four hours, Sam informed us that it usually lasts around six. He kindly helped us cut it down to four hours, allowing us to meet up with our son afterwards, which we really appreciated.
Sam’s knowledge of the Godfather film and its director was impressive, and he shared some great insights along the way. Adding a bit more historical context about Sicily itself would enhance the experience even further. Overall, we had a fantastic time exploring iconic filming locations. If you’re a fan of the Godfather or just want to see Sicily through a unique lens, this tour is definitely worth it! Thank you, Sam, for a memorable day! 🎬
We had an amazing private tour with Sam as our guide and Gino as our driver. Both were absolutely wonderful—professional, friendly, and timely. The van was perfect: clean, comfortable, and ideal for our group of four.
Sam was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Messina and every stop we made. He blended in just the right amount of humor and personal anecdotes, making us feel like we were on a scenic drive with a friend rather than on a formal tour.
Each stop had the perfect amount of time to explore without feeling rushed. Sam also gave us great recommendations on what to see and where to eat, which added to the experience.
It was a lovely and memorable tour, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!
Michael was extremely personable and friendly. He was a great driver and tour guide. Not only knowledgeable about The Godfather but also about the history of the area. We didn’t feel rushed at all and he offered suggestions for food and other sights to see. I would highly recommend this tour. It was well worth the cost. Thank you
Seeing the church where Pacino was married along with the bar vitiello. The scenery around the mountains was breathtaking
Michael our guide was the best. He was informative, entertaining, and funny. We had a great time. We would recommend getting a tour with him. All the best to your wife and kids.

Thank you very much for your review.
We hope to see you again in Sicily. Kind regards
We recently went on the Godfather tour with Salvatore. The tour was wonderful...everything that we anticipated plus more. Salvatore was a wonderful tour guide as I have physical limitations and this was taken into consideration. We enjoyed seeing the roads from the Godfather movie, learning history of Sicily as well as the astrological clock. Was awesome and would definitely book with Salvatore again.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
Thank you very much for your feedback. Warm regards from Sicily
Easy pick up, with simple directions, the guide was funny, informative and helpful with suggestions of what to do. Only visited two places Forza d’Agro great views high up in the hills, a lovely small quaint town and Taormina a tourist packed town. A mall with shops, bars and restaurants in great settings off to the sides.

Thank you very much for your feedback. We sent your message to our guide. He is very happy for that. Kind regards
Without question this was a highlight of our trip to Sicily. Yes, scenery. Yes, historical significance. Yes, scenes from The Godfather. But most importantly Michael was the key to it all. Knowledgeable, friendly, responsive to our schedule and needs. Great English. We learned so much not just about the tour, but about the surroundings, and history on the way to and back. And importantly a deeper understanding of the people of Sicily, which is home to our forefathers. We would book this trip over and over, and ONLY with Michael! We look forward to our next visit, with Sicily and with him!
This private tour was amazing. Our guide, Michael, was so informative and had suggestions on a location change to miss the large crowds. I highly recommend this private tour for your group
Fantastic time! We were lucky ended up being the only ones on our tour so it was private. Our driver was amazing and catered to us all day. Very informative and very exciting sitespecially to see. The surrounding area is beautiful and definitely not to be missed along the way! Highly recommend
Our guide and driver met us on the port and we had a truly lovely day. Nothing was too much trouble a truly special day and one which anyone would enjoy.
Dear Sam~

벤츠차량도 훌륭했습니다.
Sam. 건강하고 행복하세요~
