Excellent day in Sicily during our cruise stop in Palermo - Umberto speaks excellent English and will customize your tour to your liking. His restaurant recommendation was exactly what we were looking for! He is VERY knowledgeable about the area and has many years experience as a guide. The van is comfortable, clean and rides smooth. Highly recommend this tour...it will not disappoint.

a great day - Umberto, our driver and guide, spoke fluent English and went out of his way to ensure we had a good day. As we were the only couple, we modified our itinerary to visit Cefalu and Monreale Cathedral. The van was very comfortable and we felt safe with Umberto’s handling of the Sicilian traffic. This was an expensive trip but we benefited from Umberto’s local knowledge of restaurants and saw much more in a day than we could have achieved by ourselves. Cefalu and Monreale are truly beautiful locations and well worth visiting. Thank you Umberto for a lovely day.

A brilliant way to spend the day. And Umberto is great! - An absolutely fantastic day. Umberto, our driver, was very friendly and informative. He shared interesting history and knowledge of the area and showed us the sights without being intrusive. An absolutely lovely gentleman. Castelbuono is steeped in history and local customs and you get to try some of the local produce, which tastes amazing. The castel itself is also a must see. In celafu we were left to our own devices and we spent our time having lunch at a restaurant overlooking the sea, wandering up to the cathedral and the paddling in the sea! Overall an excellent day. Would highly recommend.

Guide was knowledgeable and very helpful - Guide Cristiano was very good: knowledgeable and very helpful. Cefalú was very busy and touristy. Castelbuono: visit to castle was very informative and the stores unique, for instance Fiasconaro and Tummanello

Great day cruise excursion - We had an amazing trip and day adventure on our port to Palermo. We went to Cefalù. The gelato in the Square by the Duomo was absolutely incredible. We spent time on the beach and the water was amazing. We also got to see the church in the city of Monreal. It was beautiful. The views of Palermo from that area were amazing. This was a great experience for our family.

Stroll the strand in charming Cefalù - We loved the unexpected beauty of charming Castel Buono. Cefalù is a great place to stroll along the beach or shop on narrow streets.
