All driving, no sightseeing, no english. - This tour did not have an English speaking driver or guide. In fact he was a driver only and no guide is provided at any point in this tour. Our driver Enrico was timely, kind, and helpful despite the language barrier. He went out of his way when a cell phone was lost on our way back. We appreciate his effort very much. Unfortunately this tour allowed virtually no time to see and learn about the sights. After about a 90 minute drive we arrived at Trapani, we had one hour, he was unable to provide any information about the area. After restrooms there was really 45 minutes left including the walk back to the van. After another drive we arrive in Erice. He said we need to be back in 20 minutes!!! We had to have him write it out so we could understand. Through complicated language we agreed on 35 minutes. This did not leave enough time to get to the scenic view points or really get beyond the entrance square. Lines in restrooms etc. Then off to Marsala to see the salt flats and a boat tour. The salt flats were interesting looking but the recorded narration did not spend one minute talking about the salt production etc. The recording alternated between English and Italian versions. Strictly historical information of the area. After the recording the captain turned on music so loud the we had to yell to ask to have it turned down. The boat captain also did not speak English. This tour has little value if you want see or learn anything about the sites. The description said driver/guide. This means local driver only who speaks only the the local language.
