Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Our tour of Toarmina with these delightful ladies was like a tour with friends. Their warmth and friendliness was equalled by their local knowledge and passion for the town. Finishing with an aperol spritz was the perfect way to end a charming afternoon learning about Toarmina! We would highly recommend!"
"If you are coming to Taormina and do one thing, let it be this: book time with Welmoed and Marlies. From the very first second, they radiated so much warmth and joy that I felt like I was meeting girlfriends I’d known my whole life. Within minutes, we were laughing, sharing stories, and I knew instantly I was in the best possible hands. But don’t mistake their friendliness for casualness—these two are pros. Their knowledge of Taormina is endless: the history, the hidden symbolism carved into the architecture, the legends passed down through generations. They don’t just recite facts; they make the city come alive in a way that pulls you right into its magic. What blew me away most was how much they care. They didn’t just guide me—they took care of me. They went out of their way to help with everything from booking a stunning beach club to arranging taxis to introducing me to their trusted driver. Every detail was thought of, every question answered, every worry smoothed out. Traveling can sometimes feel stressful or overwhelming—Welmoed and Marlies remove all of that. They make Taormina feel like home. And then there’s the personal side—the stories about their families, the way they connect with you on a real, human level. By the end, I didn’t just feel like I had seen Taormina; I felt like I had been welcomed into it. If you want a cookie-cutter tour, look elsewhere. If you want an unforgettable experience, new friends, and the kind of memories you’ll be talking about for years—then do yourself the biggest favor and book Welmoed and Marlies. Honestly, I can’t imagine Taormina without them "

"Our adult family of four really enjoyed touring Taormina with Mirco. His passion for Sicily, Taormina, and its history was evident, and his ability to show us around that charming town everywhere while avoiding the crowds was very appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed the beauty and tranquility of the Parco Florence Trevelyan. First rate tour! "
"Ho trascorso una mattinata indimenticabile a Taormina, accompagnato da due competenti guide olandesi, già immerse nella vita siciliana. La loro gentilezza e dedizione mi hanno permesso di apprendere l'essenziale, ma soprattutto mi hanno invitato a tornare l'anno prossimo per un altro tour più approfondito, sempre con la loro guida. Una delle mie migliori esperienze con guide in Italia, in una parte così speciale della Sicilia."
"Mirco is an extremely knowkedgeable and friendly guide who did a great job introducing us to Taormina. We wound our way through the back streets avoiding the heavy tourist main thruways but never missing an important or interesting spot. Mirco's advice proved spot on throughout the rest of our visit."
"We spent the day exploring Taormina and had a wonderful day! It was great to see the city from a locals point of view ! I definitely recommend this service ! We felt like we were getting to see the ins and outs of Taormina that a regular tourist may not experience ! "
"Mirco was an excellent guide and gave us a fantastic local tour of the VERY touristy town of Taormina. We saw sights and learned about thr history of the town that we wouldn't have normally seen on our own. It feels like we got a perspective of the city that tourists do not normally get to see or learn about. Mirco was so kind and flexible with us as well. We would highly recommend taking a tour with Mirco anytime!"
"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! "
"Mirco is the secret to visiting Taormina! 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. "
"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!"
