Experience the best of
Taormina with Withlocals

"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. "

"We had a great morning exploring Taormina with Maria Grazia! She was very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and we learned a lot about the city, its culture and history. Highly recommend her tour!"

"We were 2 retired couples on an extended tour of Sicily with Taormina our next to last stop. Asya brought so many historical details to life, highlighting Taormina’s place in the multicultural multilayered experience that is Sicily. She is extremely knowledgeable, bubbly, warm and considerate- we would book with her again."

"Maria Grazia provided a unique and memorable experience for our group of people ranging in age from 23 - 71! She was a wealth of local and historical knowledge and opened our eyes to some of the hidden secrets of Taormina and Sicily! She went out of her way to also provide additional recommendations and advice for our other stops within Sicily. She even assisted us with trying to discover our family heritage. She is so thoughtful, kind and a fun sense of humor too!"
