  • Sicilian Secrets - Tour of Sicily and Malta 11 days reviewer 1
    · October 31st, 2024
    Overall it was a good tour. Itinerary was very good and included most, if not all, notable landmarks. Local guides conducting the tours were very knowledgeable and had good command of English. Hotels were in good locations and of average four stars quality. Having read reviews of this particular tour was helpful to set the right expectations, such as lots of walking, needing to take your own luggage to the tour bus etc. If you’re ok with these things, as we were, I would recommend the tour. The negative things were the meals. There were two lunches that were good, but the rest, as well as the two included dinners, were not and they took place in very crowded locations that did not seem to have adequate staff and lasted for too long.

    The tour was very well organized and we couldn’t have had a better tour leader. Angelo was always very kind and patient and went above and beyond to be helpful. We saw quite a bit of Sicily in just one week. Hotels were ok, 4 star by Sicilian standards I guess. Included lunches were good for the most part. The included dinners were substandard. We had a great group which added to the enjoyment of the tour. It would be helpful to know hotels we are staying in more than 5 days before tour starts so we can book our own airport transfers which would have been less expensive. Also more attention needs to be paid to the small details. Didn’t affect me much since I am on top of everything but still had to deal with and correct the minor mistakes in my booking. All in all a good trip!

    Overall the tour was well organised and you get to see a lot of sights in a short space of time. I had some difficulty in understanding our guides English. I would have preferred to have a local guide at each destination. I was most disappointed with the location in Malta. We were put up in St Julien which is not the lovely old historic part of Valetta, bit rather full.of night clubs and tacky bars. Not appropriate for a tour of this nature. I also found the tours operation of adding new people into the group in Palermo a little unsettling.

    I loved all of it! I especially enjoyed the villa at Amerina with the incredible mosaics. I think you could shorten the days and provide more free time. The ladies love to have some time for shopping! I think I have seen everything I would like to see. Excellent tour!

    Pace of the tour was great. Hotels were in excellent locations. Angelo our tour guide was sentational. Would recommend adding an extra night on Agrigento so time could be allocated to use beach and hotel facilities.
