Hello! I'm Salvina, I've been a qualified guide for Sicily since 1999, I'm very passionate about my job and this allows me to exercise the best part of myself, I chose this profession many years ago thanks to my passion for history and arts I have grown over the years with continuous insights following courses with experts in the field. I'm usually work with American and British people, I am a communicative person, and I greatly reflect the character of my own island, solarity, eclecticism and warmth. I love reading and observing nature, swimming is my hobby, and I love to be with my children. I love my island and this is the reasons why I offer thanks to my tours the possibility to appreciate all the aspects. In particular, the province of Messina with its breathtaking views and its incredible and sometimes tragic history will fascinate you, but not least through my experience it will be possible to organize with great flexibility what most suits the tourist who chooses these tours, so not only you can access the standard tour that is specified, but it will be possible to organize an extension to enjoy the wonders of our local food, a tour through the vineyards for tasting excellent wine, or recommend local shops. Certainly choosing one of the proposed tours will be pleasant because they represent the pearls of the east coast, you will have the opportunity to use my experience to spend a relaxing and unforgettable holiday in Sicily. If you are looking for a different tour than the ones published, please contact me and I will create a tailor-made one for you! So get ready, I'm waiting for you! I have been working as a qualified licensed guide of Sicily since 1999 I’m not a driver, my tours are included with transport and professional driver. If you have a car I can accompany you in your vehicle.
