"We had a great time with Asya! Smart and super sweet. We had a large group of 11 and one with food allergies and she accommodated perfectly which is hard to do but did it with ease. She engaged the whole group and taught us a lot about the city while eating amazing food along the way. Come hungry :)"
"Asya was a great guide, showing us around the town while sampling great food and drinks! The personal connections she had with the restaurants and bakeries made the tour even better - especially the cannoli magician Roberto! She was super fun, and her knowledge of Sicilian history is amazing. She had great recommendations for places to visit, restaurants to try, and overly tourist places to stay away from, Thanks Asya! "
"Our dinner with Gloria was absolutely lovely from beginning to the end. The food and drink were authentic to the region, and taste and presentation were exceptional. Our conversation with Gloria and Nino was comfortable, like being with old friends. I highly recommend this experience during your travels to Catania!"

"We wanted to experience authentic Sicilian cuisine, and got a whole lot more. Gloria and Antonio were exceptional hosts, warm and welcoming right from the start We enjoyed an array of delectable dishes and lovely, easy-flowing conversation. One of the highlights of our trip."
"Gloria and Antonio looked after us so well.
We arrived to a home full of local delights to try and then proceeded on to a series of small dishes with matching wine. This is certainly one to try. Hospitality was amazing.

"Our tour of Taormina with Maria Grazia was a highlight of our trip. Maria is very knowledgeable and generously shared tips and information about our special interests. It was a pleasure to be guided by Maria to locations in Taormina that we would not have found on our own. I highly recommend this experience and have already recommended this to friends who are visiting later in the year. Thank you! "

Passionate about history and the Sicilian culture, he guided us off the main paths and we discovered Taormina through his eyes. Just fabulous and highly recommend this visit with Mirco who was delightful. "
