Nice day in small group - It was a beautiful day. Angelo took us to places where we had nice views. He was very friendly, polite and helpful. It was a much better option than wandering around alone or being in a huge group. He invited us for a drink and dessert. Also offered water whenever needed. I’m very pleased. Thank you Angelo again. 🌞

Wonderful experience. Highly recommend Angelo !! - We did the Godfather and the Taormina trip with Angelo’s team. I found him via Facebook and contacted him via WhatsApp . Angelo was quick to respond, He answered all our questions. On the day of the trip, he along with his team were waiting with our name signs to pick us up. Our tour guide, Alexandra was great. She explained everything while we were being driven. The driver was great too. He took pictures for us and guided us to the best photo spots. Enough time was given to us for sightseeing, taking pictures, having lunch and shopping at both the places. It was a perfect trip and all credit goes to Angelo and his wonderful team. We highly recommend him. Very trust worthy and honest. He went over and beyond for us. Whenever we will visit Sicily, we will always contact Angelo for our trips. Thank you Angelo.

So glad we booked this tour - While preparing for a Mediterranean Cruise I discovered Angelo's tour for when we were stopping at Port in Messina. We are so glad we did this Tour. Angelo was so easy to work with and made sure we had a great day. It was a small group with others from our cruise and he took us to several beautiful locations with lots of time to explore on our own and capture some beautiful photos. All this while being mindful to get us back to the port on time. The last stop was at a beautiful church and then we just needed to cross the street to re-enter the port. I am so glad we booked with Angelo instead of trying to navigate local transportation on our own or book a tour with an oversized group thru the cruise line.

A day in excellent company among the beauties of Sicily - Angelo is an attentive and super helpful person. Sunny and really nice. We spent a wonderful day in his company among the beauties of Castelmola, Taormina and Messina and savoring the specialties offered including a superlative coffee granita with cream. Unforgettable. Punctual in returning to the ship. I highly recommend it for organization and value for money.
