Weekend in Sicilia - The scenery and tha whole day was outstanding. We traveled in a brand new Mercedes Benz car but the guide/driver, Mimmo was the best. He was a professional and friendly guide. We strongly recommend him and the tour.

Great Experience in Style - This was a great tour. Our driver was the utmost in politeness and had the ability to drive in the traffic chaos of Palermo. We met our guide there and she was wonderful. We had originally booked with another company that canceled us with no reason. We then rebooked only to find they didn’t have an English guide. Viator suggested this company and they were amazing! Granted it is a bit pricey, but we felt it was totally worth it.

Great day in Agrigento and Scala dei Turchi - Sergio was our driver for our day out to Agrigento; From Palermo, the drive was not short, but Sergio made it very enjoyable. he gave us a lot of information about the different areas of Sicily; he found us an amazing location for lunch right near Scala dei Turchi. Our car was very nice, he had cold waters back for us at the car after each of our stops. Our tour guide (Anna) at Akragas in the Valley of the Temples was very knowledgeable and allowed us all the time we wanted to take pictures and ask questions. This experience is very much recommended.

It should be called a visit to the Valley of the Temples only. - Our only time in Agrigento was the 5 minute drive to get to the start of the tour of the Valley of the Temples on time. It was the main event. The guide there was informative and there was a lot to see. The driver mumbled a lot and had very limited English. He suggested a lunch spot but it was closed and we ended up with a mediocre panino at a random cafe. Somewhat disappointing. The stop at Scala de Turchi was very short, really just a photo op. The Valley of the Temples was the best part by far.

Not a good value for your money - Our driver Sergio was great. 5 stars for his service. There was just not enough to see on this tour. Especially given the price of it it is just not a good value for the money.
