Amazing! Please book this trip. Our host Umberto was not only knowledgeable, accommodating but also went above and beyond in or opinion. We could not have asked for more. A great excursion to beautiful places in north sicily. A hidden gem tour! Thank you so much. We loved our day
Flawless experience from start to finish. Friendly staff,great value, and I'd recommend it to anyone
It a must do. Cefalù is a beautiful town. We will return in summer. Our driver Christian went above a beyond to make sure we enjoy the whole experience.
Great trip and a terrific guide! He showed my wife and I around and we had a terrific time seeing everything and exploring the food.
Super trip, umberto was a great guide. Castelbuono is charming and tranquil. Lovely food tasting experiences with the local produce. Cefalu is just a gorgeous combination of architecture and a beautiful beach set against the mountains. Even in late October it was warm and sunny and a real treat. Lovely trip and not too far in the car from Palermo.
We visited two very walkable and friendly towns. Wonderful 'local' experience! We loved our day with Umberto.
Beautiful place to visit!! Our tour guide, Christian was wonderful! Worth every penny!! Great day trip!!
Cristian was a wonderful guide. We enjoyed the tour very much. It was great to get out of Palermo to see other places in Sicily with friends. The van was comfortable and clean.
The driver was very good and pleasant to talk to. The car was very comfortable and good a/c on a really hot day: Castelbuono is a ‘must see’ location. A worthwhile visit. cefalu was good too.
We had a wonderful day visiting Castelbuono and Cefalu with Cristian. Even before we’d left Palermo Cristian was pointing out highlights for us to see. On the very comfortable drive Cristian explained how life had changed in the various towns we passed through giving us a good insight into the area’s past and present. The old town in Castelbuono is lovely and so relaxing after the hustle and bustle of Palermo. Cristian walked us through the atmospheric old town stopping for us to sample local specialties. We then visited the beautiful medieval castle which is well worth a visit. We then drove on to Cefalu. At this time of the year Cefalu is a busy, busy seaside town and the beach was packed. A walk up and down the narrow main street before a well earned lunch along the beachfront. Cristian was a marvellous guide. Always helpful and keen to share his love of Sicily and its culture. This is a must-do tour especially if you want to see more than Palermo.
