Sicily Family Trips/Tours Reviews
- Luxury Private Tour of Sicily: Highlights
I was struck by the attention to detail even in a simple and friendly context.
The sightseeing places were beautiful and would have liked to have spent more time in each place felt a little rushed with no time to enjoy each sight, too much to see in 5 days. Bus should be only 20 or less as too many people created some stress for the leader and 3 languages, became a headache at times. Choices of the first 2 hotels were great ?, the last one felt over crowded and food was not good. Our tour guide was wonderful she was helpful and very patient in the stressful times.
