Messina Cruise Terminal : Privé Taormina + Isola Bella + Arancino

We had the BEST day with Marco exploring Taormina and the surrounding area! Marco is incredibly knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and friendly—we truly felt like we were spending the day with family. Communication was seamless, and we learned so much throughout the day. Marco is a wealth of knowledge about history, architecture, art, food, culture, and nature. He took us to the best spot for cannoli and arancini, shared fun insights about The White Lotus and local shopping, and led us through quiet side streets away from the crowds. When our son decided he wanted some beach time, Marco quickly adjusted our plans and found the perfect drop-off spot. He even let us borrow his sunscreen and gave us great local tips! Marco's passion, flexibility, and kindness made this an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend Marco and this tour!

Apart from some confusion about pick up time at the beginning, this turned out to be an wonderful day. The passion and knowledge of the guide Marco was amazing. He dropped us off and picked us up a different spots so we did minimal walking with maximum time at the location. We are keen photographers so he went out of his way to point out the most awesome locations for views of the stunning countryside. His communication was good, he took us to lots of spots off the normal touristy routes, we had coffee at an interesting cafe full of artwork denoting mens genitals which was unique and made for some fun photos and good laughs. We shared food, wine and great conversation, he even sang on the trip back. Lovely and very relevant as it was the theme song from The Godfather which was filmed in Sicily. Absolutely recommended.

THIS is the company to TRUST! Every member of this company cares about you and takes care of you completely!! We had a terrible morning because our ship docked at a different location than what is normally used which left us separated from our guide. Even though we lost time in the morning, this company went out of their way to more than make up for it! When booking the excursion we asked them to take us to a specialty shop for some specific items. Imagine our surprise and pleasure to find out that the office manager went to the shop and got the items for us, then drove to meet us on tour, surprising us with the items! How gracious, kind and thoughtful, this allowed us to keep to the tour and get our items without wasting time. We cannot say enough about Prestelli Sicily Tours and will always use them when we travel to Sicily!
