Could you please send me some recent reviews of this tour (from 2025 and 2026)?

You can see reviews for 'The Sicilian' via TrustPilot here.

Would need to be staying in a place with an elevator or on the first floor. Is this possible? My 81st birthday is in March. Is this tour still available to me? Is there a luggage limit? Can pay for extra if necessary.

Yes, there is availability for two single rooms and there is not an age limit on our tours as long as you feel comfortable with the itinerary. We can request a low floor number or room close to the elevator but cannot guarantee confirmation of the request with every hotel. The bag limit is one per person. Due to limited coach capacity, this single bag should have dimensions not exceeding 30 x 21 x 11 inches, and a weight not exceeding 50 lbs (22 kg). Hand luggage is limited to 12 x 11 x 6 inches, and may not have wheels for safety reasons; a small backpack is suitable to fit a camera, book, water bottle, wallet, and any medications. Due to the many vacation variations, it is not possible to provide extra luggage availability or pricing for every tour, which is why our baggage policy is one suitcase and one hand luggage.

Is your tour conducted in english only or repeated in multiple languages? Im looking for english only, no repeats.

Our tours are conducted in English only.

Does the price include airfair

We do not include flights for this tour. You will be responsible for your flights to the start and end of the tour.

Can dietary restrictions be accommodated on the Sicilian tour?

Yes, dietary restrictions can usually be accommodated with advance notice.

Do tours offer options for meals or must participants adhere to a preset menu?

Participants may skip included dinners if they prefer to explore local dining options independently.

Are there 2 spots left for the trip, The Sicilians, on 9/27 to 10/6?

We will be happy to have her join our tour. We just ask that she is comfortable with a moderate amount of walking. She may be required to climb a full flight of steps and there may slso be some uneven terrain.

Can you tell me what time the tours depart the hotels in the morning?

You will have breakfast in the mornings (around 6AM) and the tour will start after breakfast (around 8 or 9 AM).

What is the cancellation policy for the Sicilian tour?

The deposit for the Sicilian tour is non-refundable.

Can you book an extra night at the hotel where our tour starts in Palermo?

Would like to book our flight asap as the plane is also filling up.

All in all, Scicily was beautiful! It met our expectations. If I have any criticism it would be that I would have liked to see more of Palermo. The hotels were all excellent as well as the breakfasts served every morning as well as the suppers except our farewell one. The ambiance and location was amazing but the food was so so. The visit to the jewelry place, we should have been told in advance in order that we research and would have been better prepared to buy since we are dealing with a significant amount of money. Our tour guide Fabiola was excellent! She called us family and that’s exactly what we became. The bus was super comfortable and we had an amazing driver, bravo Salvatore.Show more

Our tour guide, Mario, did everything in his power to keep us safe, secure when we needed extra and personal assistance, comfortable and informed. This made the entire trip one to remember. Not just for enjoyment and relaxation but also for comfort, caring and the knowledge that we were safe and protected. That is number 1 in my book! The feeling of security whether in an unfamiliar environment or personal and unexpected incidents and issues was immeasurable and most important to me. I have traveled with many different tour companies but this time I needed extra advice and attention and it was met with the highest caring, concern and efficiency. For that I am forever grateful,Show more
