I and my wife went on a private tour of Noto, Modica and Ragusa with Alessio, the owner of Sicily Grand Tour. Alessio is a native of Sicily and speaks very clear English without any Italian accent, which is a great plus; particularly when he has to drive the car with his mask on and speak. He is very knowledgeable not just about Sicily but also gave informative tidbits of faraway cities like Trieste in the northeast of Italy. We found him very personable as he was always keen to engage in conversation, enthusiastically clicked our pictures with a DSLR, and of course took us to the best spots in each of the three towns. I can easily recommend him for Sicily tours as his communication/approach right from the time I contacted him via email/whatsapp until the very end of the tour was prompt, clear and amicable. SD

We had a great time at Nonna Amalia's home cooking experience. The cooking class was hosted by Valeria at her gorgeous home and the kitchen was fully equipped. We choose to cook homemade pasta (tagliatelle) with tomato sauce and ravioli filled with pureed eggplant. It all turned out being great! For the dessert we made paste di mandorla! Everything was delicious and we really enjoyed the experience. I can really recommend this cooking class if you are looking to learn some Sicilian home cooking.

We experienced a misunderstanding, causing us to pay for the cable railway to go to the top of mount Etna without using it. The bus driver, Alessandro, was extremely understanding and helped us to get the money back. Top service and a very nice experience.
