What people love about touring Sicily solo
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily 6 days
The tour guide, Placido, was excellent as well as the bus driver. They had good rapport with the group. We saw amazing sights, the accommodations were good, especially in Agrigento, and the commentary was good. Some things to improve: it should be highlighted that this is a WALKING tour and requires some mobility. We had three people who were challenged daily and the group was significantly slowed down as a result; also, there should be better communication between the tour company and cities and provinces about local events which might hinder the passage of the tour bus. (In our case it was a cycling race, which made it impossible to cross the road to our destination of Marsala and a wine tasting.) ; and finally, each day there were additional costs to get into sights. Each day it should be mentioned which places are optional and at what cost. We have already mentioned the tour to people we have met with good reviews but the above improvements would make it even better.
- Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily and Malta 11 days
unfortunately, Me and other passengers got sick with some kind of virus. Very unpleasant.
- Sicilian Secrets - Mini Tour of Sicily 5 days
The guide is very professional. The overall tour in Sicilia is so impressive. Overall the agenda every day was well managed and we really enjoy the whole trip

Plan your visit during spring (April-May) or fall (September-October) when the weather is mild and tourist spots are less crowded.
