Unforgettable, awe-inspiring, and joyful. Absolute value for money. Just do it!!! - Our three guided walking adventures with Dottoressa Enrica de Melio deeply enriched our experience of south-eastern Sicily and totally exceeded our expectations. Enrica's extensive knowledge and joy in her profession and her considerable talent for communicating her great love for the land and the treasured histories of its people opened our hearts and minds to this beautiful and intriguing area. Her ability to convey technical information through engaging storytelling has now turned us into amateur "stone detectives"!
Enrica demonstrates true professionalism, from initial communication through to her extensive guiding experience and local knowledge. She timed our tours to avoid the heat of the day. At all times, she was unobtrusively mindful of our safety and comfort. Enrica is a wonderful ambassador for South Eastern Sicily. Her warm and engaging personality encapsulates Sicilian hospitality at its best. Our walking tours were rich and enjoyable experiences of unparalleled value. Do not hesitate. We absolutely recommend this tour planning and guiding service!
