10 out of 10! - Fantastic tour guides. Great variety of activities, many places were breathtaking. The meals were outstanding. We liked that on some days down time / personal time built in the schedule. Nice hotels. Felt safe the entire trip. We were expecting a lot from the trip and it exceeded our expectations. Trip was well worth it!

An amazing introduction to Sicily - The tour was fantastic. There were six of us which made it very comfortable in the van. The sights were well chosen and the pace of the tour was perfect. All three hotels were in excellent locations to the pedestrian areas of the cities. All guides were knowledgeable and friendly. Every day on the tour we received a text explaining the next day's agenda which was very helpful. We extended our stay in both Catania and Palermo - which I would recommend. Massimo and Sicily Adventures were great in helping us book extra days at the same hotels used in our tour, and in planning extra excursions.

A great tour of Sicily - From start to finish, this tour did not disappoint. The guides were all very knowledgeable and friendly. It was a perfect way to see Sicily. We had enough free time to shop and explore on our own. I highly recommend it.

Superb curated tour of Sicily - Massimo and his team have designed a fantastic exploration of some of the best places in Sicily. The hotels they chose, the activities and meals, even the drivers and the tour guides were all superb. Will definitely be coming back for another one of their tours.

Excellent Tour - This was a great tour! They were always on time and transportation to and from airports and venues was seamless. What really made this tour were the fantastic guides who clearly loved wine, food, and Sicily! They all spoke english extremely well, were fun and personable and some great walking tours and good sampling in each venue! Would fully recommend.

Ideal Trip Around Sicily - We got a complete feeling for the entire island on this tour. Taormina was spectacular as expected, but the surprise was how much we loved Siracusa/Ortigia. The hotels were very comfortable, and all of the drivers and guides were knowledgeable. It was a perfect blend of guided experiences with plenty of time to explore on our own. We only wish there was a Sicily Activities group in every country that we visit in the future. Thanks to everyone who made this an unforgettable vacation.

The best tour I have ever experienced in the best place I have ever been. - This was actually an 11 day customized small group tour (2-7 persons). Because it was off season, it was a private tour. Valeria customized this tour via a face call months before. If I was rating this tour on a scale of 1-100 I would rate it a 200. The tour exceeded any and all expectations we had. I thought originally it was a little pricy, but now I will say it was worth every cent. Our driver, Michele, became a personal friend and we will get together when we return. He was knowledgeable, punctual, and a joy to be with. Nothing I can think to say will give the praise he deserves. All the guides were wonderful, as was every excursion. The hotels were great, with the last two, in Taormina and Móndelo, were an example of saving the best for last. The breakfasts in each hotel put breakfasts in the U.S. hotels to shame. The lunches that were included were also excellent. And the island, what can I say about Sicily? Sicily is a magical place where the land meets the sky, the food is delicious, and the people are warm and friendly. We will definitely return in the future and are already talking about our next trip there. I have a fair amount of travel under my belt, but I have never been to a place I loved as much.

BEST SICILIAN EXPERIENCE EVER!!! - We had an incredible 4 day trip ! Starting with the delicious street food tour of Catania with the warm & hospitable Denise. Next, we spent two days with the knowledgeable and insightful Orazio who we hiked Etna with, experienced the exquisite Etna wines, and explored the Godfather villages. Plus, the deeply passionate and inspiring Alfredo who brought to life the essence of Greco-Roman history on our walking tour of the Ancient Teatro Greco of Taormina! Lastly, we finished off our incredible Sicilian trip with the energetic & engaging Antonio exploring the splendid Sicilian cities of Siracusa, Ortigia and Noto to experience the best late baroque architecture Italy/ Sicily has to offer, as well as the filming location of one of the best Tornatore films (Malena) .. It truly felt we were living through a Morricone film score.. Sicily activities was there every step of the booking process to paying attention to all of our needs all the way to our departure! Graziana provided us consistent communication throughout and we will surely be back to utilize their incredible services! If you find yourself in Sicily in the near future, there is no better place to organize the Sicilian trip of a lifetime; full of culture, food, incredible sights and even more incredible people! Siete veramente 🔝🔝🔝🫶🏼😊
