Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"We spent half a day with Mirco passing through the less travelled alleyways and secret corners of this wonderful city. Mirco obviously enjoys passing on his knowledge and his absolute love of all things Sicilian. His English is perfect which combined with his enthusiasm for the local history meant this was an engaging, informative addition to our stay in the city. Thank you Mirco and good luck to you and your girlfriend."
"Mirco hat uns durch Gassen geführt, die ein wenig abseits der touristischen Pfade lagen und hat uns tips gegeben, die wir nicht auf dem Schirm hatten"
