Great tour. - Sandra was an excellent guide for our trip to Taormina and Castelmura. There were only two of us on the tour, so we were in her own car. I had toured Taormina from a cruise a few years ago, but had no idea from that tour how much I missed and how much there was to see. The area is spectacular and we learned a lot from Sandra. Highly recommended.

Wonderful Excursion! - We had a wonderful day with an excellent guide, Manuele. This was so much better then renting a car and driving on the twisty narrow roads. The towns are beautiful, unique, colorful and our guide brought it all to life.

One lost day / one lost day - English version below We had booked a tour of Taormina and Castelmola in French on Monday November 20 for Friday November 24. Last night at 5:30 p.m. we received a message saying that they didn't yet know which guide to assign us and asked if we wanted an English tour instead. We insisted on having the tour in French because it was more understandable for us. The next day, we went to the meeting place and after 50 minutes of waiting, we sent a message to find out where the guide was. It was only then that we were told that the guide "had a problem" without further details. If already the night before they didn't know which guide they were going to assign to us, it is even less credible to think that they really had one but that he had "a problem." The organization assured us that they could organize the activity tomorrow but, unlike others obviously, we have already planned our visits several days in advance. Thanks to your pitiful organization for ruining our day; all the tours having started, we lost a day during our short stay! Never again with you!

We insisted on the French tour as it is more understandable for us. The next day, at the meeting point, after waiting for 50 minutes, we sent a message to inquire about the guide's whereabouts. It was only then that we were informed the guide "encountered an issue" without further details. If the previous evening they couldn't determine our guide, it's even less credible to believe there was one, and he had an "issue." The organization assured us they could arrange the activity tomorrow, but unlike others, we had planned our visits several days in advance. Thanks to your pitiful organization, our day was ruined; all tours had started, and we lost a day on our short stay! Never again with your company!
