I have been working as a guide in my homeland, Sicily, for over six years. Before that, I spent five years in Australia working as a private driver and tour guide. I have completed various training and certification programs to start my own tour business in Taormina, Sicily. I was born and brought up in Sicily, and this beautiful land with its wholesome atmosphere holds a special place in my heart. It is full of rich history, traditions, stunning landscapes, vibrant colors, and delicious food. My passion for local traditions and the extraordinary Mediterranean landscapes of Sicily has made me knowledgeable about the area, and I am always ready to go the extra mile to ensure that my clients experience the best holiday possible. My tours are both professional and fun, and I always try to be helpful and friendly. Exceptional customer experience and safety are my top priorities, and I am always available to share my local knowledge with my clients, offering useful tips on where to go, what to visit, where to eat, and more. To provide an authentic and inspiring trip, I work only with small groups, giving my clients a unique insight into local life. If you have any questions about my tours or would like to know more about what I can offer, please don't hesitate to get in touch! You can even just drop me a line to say hello. I would be more than happy to answer your questions and help create a custom itinerary for you. My business vehicle is fully licensed. I am a fully licensed mountain guide, hiker, and driver. Due to certification requirements, I cannot be your tour guide inside museums and historical buildings.
