    Excellent Tours! Highly recommend!

    James_K, Mar 2026
    We highly recommend this tour! The entire family enjoyed it and we would do it again. If English is your primary language, I will say that we had to communicate through Google Translate a bit much. While English is our primary language my daughter has a good grasp of Italian, which helped us through this.

    Loved the small group for my family if 6. We were able to customize what we wanted to do and see. Our guide Cheecho was fabulous, friendly and so personable. Would highly recommend him. We were on a cruise and this was by far our most favorite. Mt Etna was amazing and Taormina was absolutely stunning.
