    The Sicily Self Drive tour is simply marvellous! It’s like having your own little Italian adventure, but with the freedom to explore at your leisure. The history, the culture, the breathtaking views - it’s all there for you to discover. The only thing that’s a bit of a letdown is the lack of luxury. A touch more indulgence would have made it perfect. But don’t let that put you off, it’s still a splendid way to see Sicily.

    Thank you for your feedback. I am so glad that your tour reflected what you booked for: a self-driver trip is the best way to discover a land, Sicily region is one of the best place in Italy, good choice and all the best!

    The Sicily Self Drive tour is a total blast! You get to roll at your own pace and really dig into the heart of Sicily. It’s like a mixtape of all the cool stuff - history, culture, scenery - all in your hands. The only bummer? Time. Just when you’re getting into the groove, you gotta move. A little extra time would’ve been the cherry on top. But, it’s still a wicked ride. So, if you’re up for an adventure that’s a bit off the beaten track, this is your gig!

    The Sicily Self Drive tour is a near-perfect blend of adventure and autonomy. The breathtaking landscapes and the rich, authentic Sicilian cuisine make for an unforgettable experience. The thrill of navigating through Sicily’s narrow, winding roads adds to the sense of adventure, although it can be a bit challenging for those unaccustomed to such terrain. A minor area for improvement would be providing more detailed information about certain sites. Despite this, the tour is well-organized and offers a deep dive into the heart of Sicily. It’s an excellent choice for those seeking a mix of adventure and cultural immersion.

    The Sicily Self Drive tour was a thrilling journey. The self-drive aspect offered a sense of independence, navigating through Sicily’s stunning landscapes. The food was a highlight, with traditional Sicilian dishes providing a delightful culinary experience. The navigation was smooth and beautiful, with narrow, winding roads bringing increadible views of the island. Hotel selection was good, but I missed a luxury option.
