    Authentic tour of Toarmina

    "The walking tour was a great walk around more hidden areas of Toarmina and even if the main streets were full the paths we took were quiet and able to take pictures of the city. Your included more of the history of old toarmina and what the town was built on."

    Had a great time with Mirco.

    "Mirco is very knowledgeable on Tourminia since he lives there. He showed us the back streets to avoid the crowd and the real part of the city. Thank you! Mirco!"

    Esperienza meravigliosa

    "Due ore davvero bellissime alla scoperta di Taormina! Io e la mia compagna abbiamo avuto la fortuna di avere Mirco come guida: gentilissimo, simpatico e soprattutto super preparato. Ci ha accompagnati per la città raccontandoci la sua storia, ma anche tante piccole curiosità e aneddoti che hanno reso il tour molto più interessante e piacevole. È riuscito a farci vivere Taormina con leggerezza, senza mai rendere la visita pesante o noiosa. E poi, come se non bastasse, l’Etna in eruzione sullo sfondo ha fatto il resto, regalandoci un ricordo che difficilmente dimenticheremo! Grazie Mirco per le bellissime due ore passate insieme, è stato davvero un piacere. Assolutamente consigliato!"

    Muy recomendable

    "La visita a Taormina con Mirco ha sido una delicia. Amable, tranquilo y un derroche de información, se ha adaptado en todo momento a nosotros y nos ha enseñado rincones fuera del circuito turístico habitual. Ha sido estupendo."

    Taormina wunderbar erlebt

    Lovely and determined

    "Asya met us at Porta Messina on a rainy day. The weather did not deter her enthusiasm or love of Taormina.. She walked everywhere with us and sought shelter wherever possible. Her main objective was for us to enjoy it tour and she succeeded! Very knowledgeable, super pleasant and cognizant of our needs and comfort. We had two children in our group and she pivoted to keep them happy. Never thought I would enjoy a rainy tour. Thoroughly enjoyed our time with Asya and would recommend her!"
