Traveling is my passion, as it is talking to people to share stories and emotions. After spending 10 years working and traveling across Europe I eventually decided to come back to Sicily. Why? Goethe once wrote "Without Sicily, Italy creates no image in the soul: here is the key to everything". Sicily is a land of emotions: wonderful art, ancient history, delicious food and breathtaking views. As different travelers have different interests, I love to tailor-make the tours according to what travelers are willing to experience, so that to turn each tour into a truly, unforgettable experience. Any tour with me is hence more than just a tour, so please do not hesitate to contact me should you either want to make any changes to a tour I offer or to inquiry about a tour that you have in mind and want me to help organize it for you. I would love to make your dreams come true! I provide tours in French and Russian with my wife, as she is Russian and teaches French.

On this unique boat tour you will enjoy the azure Tyrrhenian Sea together and many caves and coves along the Palermo coastline. The Tyrrhenian Sea is part of the Mediterranean Sea off the western coast of Italy. It is named so from the Tyrrhenian people, identified with the Etruscans. While the skipper takes care of the navigation I will tell you about the history of the area. From April to October, and on some days in November, too, the sea temperature allows swimming and diving. It's not so uncommon to spot, during navigation, dolphins, as similar boats are used to go fishing and the dolphins are always willing to get a free meal! ***Other boat tours, also to the Aeolian Islands and to the Egadi Islands, are available: please inquire!*** ***Customized private boat tours for parties and other events are also available***
