Savoca Taormina: private cruise tours from Messina

Thank you for a terrific day in Messina!
We had a terrific day with Alessandro and Marisa. They collected us from the port in Messina without hassle and took us to visit Savoca and Taormina. Marisa shared her knowledge and stories with us along the way and gave us a fantastic recommendation for lunch. Alessandro kindly paid for sweets and entry fees for us. I would highly recommend their services for a personalised and enjoyable experience!

THE Best way to get to Taormina!!
What a fabulous day!! Pick up was punctual, vehicle was air conditioned & comfortable and our guide Alberto was a safe & patient driver. He also shared his local knowledge as we travelled to Taormina. We had plenty of free time to explore the village and historic Theatre. Alberto was friendly, helpful and kind. Don’t hesitate- book it before someone else does 10/10 ✅

WE had an absolutely wonderful day in Sicily with our fantastic guides, Alessandro and Hahan. They were both so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and really made the whole experience special. We visited Taormina and Castelmola, enjoyed the beautiful scenery and then had an amazing boat trip along the coast. The highlight was relaxing on the boat, enjoying the stunning views and sharing champagne together — such a lovely and memorable experience! 🥂⛵️ Alessandro and Hahan made us feel very welcome and looked after us throughout the day. Everything was organised so well, and their enthusiasm and local knowledge added so much to the tour. A truly beautiful day and one of the highlights of our trip. We would highly recommend this tour, especially with Alessandro and Hahan as guides! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ JANELLE NICCI AND SARA

Ciccio also treated us to a traditional Italian treat -:) He dropped us off right at our ship -:) There was eight of us and we all highly y Ciccio !

Savoca Taormina Castelmola : private cruise tours from Messina

The Best of Sicily
Our Godfather tour with Booking Sicily Tours was truly one of the most memorable days of our time in Sicily. From the moment we started, Marisa, Pari, and Alessandro made the experience feel so personal and special. They were warm, welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely seemed to love sharing Sicily with us. We never felt like we were just being taken from one stop to another — it felt like we were spending the day with friends who wanted us to really experience and appreciate these beautiful places. Visiting the three villages connected to The Godfather was incredible. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and hearing the stories and details about the filming locations made everything come alive. We had time to enjoy each village, take photos, soak in the atmosphere, and just appreciate how special it was to be there. What I will remember most, though, is how Marisa, Pari, and Alessandro treated us. Their kindness, humor, patience, and personal attention made such a difference. They helped turn a sightseeing tour into a day we will genuinely remember for years to come. Sicily itself is beautiful, but experiences like this are what make a trip unforgettable. Thank you Marisa, Pari, Alessandro, and Booking Sicily Tours for such an amazing day. If you are visiting Sicily, I cannot recommend them enough. ❤️🇮🇹 Will return. Ingrid

Un día excelente en Taurmina
Me and my friends group were cruising with Norwegian Cruise Line. When we got to Messina we met the agency on the street. They offered their service and we were assigned to Carmelo and Filipo as our guides. Carmelo and Filipo were excellent guides. They were very attentive and constantly concerned with ensuring our comfort. They also shared information about their beautiful island while showing us the scenery. Both are wonderful people who made us feel great throughout the tour. Best of all, they didn't rush us; they allowed us to enjoy the experience without any time pressure. At the end, Carmelo treated us to some delicious limoncello. I highly recommend the tour with Carmelo and Filipo—I guarantee you’ll have a wonderful time.
