Nice Danielle - Danielle..... a very very nice gentleman!! He waited for us in front of the ship, then we asked him about the van and then about Etna. We talked and joked throughout the trip and learned a lot about Sicily. He took us to see more than we had anticipated and we thank him for that. It was a very beautiful and unforgettable experience and he will be remembered as one of the best guides. Thank you Danielle! Jasmina,Toni,Arno,Romina

Amazing memories - We had an amazing trip! From start to finish, everything was wonderful. Our guide was flexible with our 3 year old and my mother who needed to utilize a wheelchair for distance. With pickup right at the port and a prompt drop off, it was a great for our cruise! Less expensive than the cruise and a greater experience than offered by the cruise. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience in Sicily. We would recommend Best Sicily Excursions to anyone looking to maximize their time, with a friendly guide!
