I loved this tour so much! Sicily is a beautifully diverse island, and the tour was well curated. A perfect combination of food, historical city sites, food, charming small towns, food, UNESCO sites, and more food. Do yourself a favor and don't skip the optional tour to Trapani and Erice. The hotels were comfortable and well appointed. Each with their own distinct characteristics. Saving the best for last...what a treat to have Alessandro as our guide. The man is clearly passionate about Sicily and made every aspect of the tour an evocative experience. He's wicked smart, fun, and a pure joy to be around. He made us feel welcome and taken care of. A+ all the way around. Also, shout out to Antonio. Best bus driver ever! I also did the Malta extension with an equally passionate guide. So much history, more food, and an amazing resort style hotel.

This was our second Smartours vacation and we loved our Flavors of Sicily trip - so many beautiful sights, such delicious food, great variety of interesting stops and generous samplings of local products and the key to any good tour, a top class tour guide. Alessandro was the BEST - knowledgeable, considerate and so good at creating the perfect atmosphere to build a "family" out of our group. Just fantastic to have someone with his depth of knowledge of the island's amazing history and culture. Just the right amount of guided visits and free time to explore and we were very grateful for Alessandro's advice on things to do and explore on our own. Felt like we got to see so much of Sicily and were able to relax and enjoy the spectacular views as our driver, Antonio, deftly negotiated the sometimes very challenging driving conditions. Great memories and looking forward to choosing another Smartours trip for next year.

I loved this tour. The pacing was manageable and all the cities and sights we visited were great. A special mention about our tour director- Sara and our bus driver- Marco, they both made the tour very enjoyable. Very very special people. They truly are valuable members of the SmarTours team. The only negative comment I have is the hotel in Palermo which was not up to standard as compared to other hotels I stayed at on this tour and other SmarTours.
