Wonderful experience for short day trip! Tour guide Andrea was welcoming, give historical insights into Sicily and never made us feel rushed. He showed us wonderful sights of this part of Sicily and introduced us to some unique aspect to Sicilian culture! Truly one of the best trips we have been on. Left us wanting nothing, other than to return to Sicily!
Thank you so much. I'll be waiting for you on the next trip to Sicily.
Isabela was a wonderful tour guide! She was knowledgeable, friendly, efficient, and very easy to communicate with. We loved the Cathedral and astronomical clock in Messina, a fabulous lunch at Mama Rosa’s in Taormina, everything Godfather in Savaca, ending with a stop to Turrisi in Castelmola. Highly recommend booking with Isabela!
thanks to you see you next sicilycoppola
Definitely overpriced. I paid 800$ and I think they must have given me the worst tour guide, as we were not able to understand a word she said. It was frustrating experience because we kept trying to understand as she took us around to talk about all the beautiful structures and scenery but basically impossible. She wasn’t Italian and her accent was incomprehensible. I wish I just booked the shared and saved my money. The tour guide would have been easier to understand.
Good morning, madam, but I don't understand why this review. I think our collaborators, who we make available to you at the end of the tour, are appreciated for the work they do. I remind you that you have a companion who we provide, but not an official guide. I personally apologize again if you didn't get along well with our collaborator.
This was a well organized and informative tour. Our driver, Nicola, and guide Alexandria were wonderful to work with. We saw many interesting things and were treated to cannoli, almond wine, and plenty of bottled water on our hot day. We were given time with our guide as well as time on our own. This tour was a must and we loved seeing the very different towns!
Grazie
Our group of 15 had a wonderful time! Oleksandra met us at our cruise ship with a smile and was lovely throughout the tour. Our first stop was Castelmola, a quaint beautiful village high above with fantastic views. Next stop was Taormina which speaks for itself. Lastly we had lunch at Da Giovanni overlooking Isola beach. Delish! Prior to being dropped off at the ship, we saw some beautiful sights in Messina. Overall, our tour was fantastic and I highly recommend booking with Sicily Tour by Coppola.
thank you so much
This is the best way to see Sicily when on a cruise ship stop! The people are warm and welcoming. They modify the trip to your interests and keep you ahead of the large tour bus groups that clog up the scenery with too many people! The guide points out all the points of interest. Highly recommend taking a private tour over a big bus group!
A thousand thanks
Timely WhatsApp messages made for a very smooth meet-up, just outside the cruise port gate. During the car ride Gabri shared a lot of information with us about the history, culture, flag and foods of Sicily. Each stop on the journey was both educational and scenic. Our group thoroughly enjoyed this excursion.
Thanks a lot, see you next time from sicilytourcoppola
We had the best time ever with Nicola, Angelica, and Alberto. The tour went perfectly, Angelica and her partner Alberto, were knowledgeable, and so much fun..we saw amazing sites, and beautiful places. I highly recommend this tour, you will not be disappointed. Kudos to Nicola’s driving and singing skills.
Thank you so much for your singing talent, thank you so much see you next time
We absolutely loved our tour. Nicola and Andrea were wonderful. They stopped along the way for all of the scenic photo stops, had fun surprises for us along the way and went above and beyond for my friends and I. It was a wonderful day that we highly recommend. I feel that we had a great view of Sicily.
Thank you so much. I hope to see you and your family again soon. Greetings from Sicily Coppola.
Amazing, driver l Nikola and tour guide Angelica were amazing
Grazieeee
