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.

Salvina was just THE best guide that we could have asked for EVER! Her knowledge was informative and endless and she is a really fun person, so we were very happy to have chosen her as our Taormina guide. It really was a pleasure to be in her company for 3 hours and we could easily have spent all day with her and still wanted more! You absolutely will not be disappointed on her tour; Salvina + Taormina = satisfaction...so book her today to avoid disappointment!
Salvina was very knowledgeable and interesting.She was most enthusiastic about Taormina and gave us a great historical overview of the area. Highly recommend her as a guide.
Salvina is a charming, witty and expert guide in Taormina. We learned so much about the city's rich and complicated past. We ended with a lovely food and wine tasting on a beautiful balcony restaurant. Highly recommend you choose Salvina for your memorable and interesting time in stunning Taormina. You won't be disappointed.
Salvina is very client oriented and friendly. It was a pleasure to spend the 3 hours together. She is very knowledgeable about history and anthropology as well as the culture of Taormina. At the end of the Tour the restaurant she suggested, Shelter Ristorante and Pizzeria, was outstanding. We returned another day and had a delightful lunch of eggplant Parmigiana, seafood risotto, mushroom omelet Planeta Segreta Bianco which was outstanding.
I had a wonderful few hours walking around Taormina with Salvina. Salvina is passionate about her job and very knowledgeable about both Taormina and the history of Sicily. You get a really good understanding of the history of Taormina and Sicily while walking around and seeing the wonderful sights the city has to offer. Salvina is personable and easy to talk to so the time flew by. And it finished with a delicious plate of Sicilian delicacies and glass of wine.
