      Yes of course, I can help you to extend the tour by 2-3 days to Aeolean Islands, from Catania - ie arranging the transfer, the ferry and the accommodation to Aeolean Islands. The airfare is not included but I can help you to coordinate that.

    Alice

    Asked on June 1st, 2025

    Can I add a second traveler days before the June 28th departure?

    Tour Details
    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten June 2025

      yes of course, you can add a second traveler fee days before the departure, but in any case there would be 2 travelers in double or twin room right?

  • M

    Melissa

    Asked on April 4th, 2025

    Am very interested in this tour for myself and my daughter of 17 yrs. Reading some of the reviews it is unclear to me whether the entrance to the various museums etc. (e.g Piazza Armerina) is included in the fee. Would be grateful for more details on this.

    Price / Availability
    Tour Details
    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      Kindly consider the tour description and What's Included and What's not included services. Under the What's not included, is specified that all entrances are not included in the general tour cost. However there are add-on packages to purchase all entrances and local city taxes.

    Belinda

    Asked on March 24th, 2025

    Are we in the town of Catania the night of the 15th as we have a flight at 6:00am to Tirana Albania on the 16th.

    Flights / Transfers
    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten March 2025

      Yes, you will be in Catania the night between the 15th and the 16th August. That's no problem also to arrange a private transfer for you to Catania Airport to catch the 6 am flight.

    • B

      Belinda

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Can you tell me who the tour guide will be in those dates? We would love Angelo. It's just that we have been on another tour with a different company and the tour guide was so bland and it affected the whole tour. Angelo has amazing reviews.

    • Soleto TravelOperatorWritten March 2025

      At the moment we do not have the guides schedule for August yet, it might be Angelo or Placido
