    Bartolomeo was so helpful. We wanted to see a lot in just one day with a car and driver - the catacombs , a winery, Monreale, and the cave sanctuary of Saint Rosalia. He worked closely with me to make it happen. He is charming, responsive, and informative. He also navigates Palermo with practiced skill - no mean feat. My husband and I recommend him highly.

    Bartolomeo was fantastic very knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great break for lunch at a local seafood restaurant which was delicious.

After pick up at our hotel, the drive from Palermo to Segesta took about an hour, very comfortable ride in a well-stocked (with water and candy) Mercedes van. Bartolomeo arranged for a wonderful guide to walk...
