Costly tour
Christine L
, Oct 2019
We wish we had the option to go with a group tour when we booked with Viator. We could not find one and had no choice but to book the costly so called private tour. We are disappointed with Viator and will not book future tours with Viator. It was expected to be a fully guided tour but we did not get that fully guided tour. There were places we visited where we were left to explore on our own and at Segesta we were hooked on to another group without our tour guide cum driver. Clearly not what we paid for!

hi if you were wrong to buy this tour that was too expensive for you (you bought it, the platform works very well and is very clear) and you are angry, it is not our fault, we have been doing this tour for many years always in the same way , they have always been private tours for 1 to 8 people. all our customers have always been enthusiastic and happy, as can be seen from the many positive reviews. You have only found unnecessary excuses. "Your time alone is for lunch or shopping" as scheduled. We always do our best and respect the programs, we are sorry if you have not understood it.

Castelbuono was GREAT!!

Our guide was Humberto, he showed around the town. Then he brought us to a restaurant. Vincenzo was a cook. He made us sandwiches, appetizers, and coke & wine. We ate a tiny balcony overlooking the village. Humberto was great. I didn't care for Cefalu!

What an amazing day with Umberto touring the island of Sicily. We visited Castelbuono and it was delightful. We highly recommend this tour. The village was charming quiet peaceful and not very crowded. We had an amazing lunch specially prepared for us. What an experience! Umberto was a great guide and enjoyed his time immensely.

Cefalu and Castelbuono tour from Palermo
Teresa K
, Sep 2018
This tour was amazing. First we visited Castelbuono. A hidden jewel for sure. It was like being set back in time. The trash is picked up by donkey! The town is adorable and looks like Tuscany.Cefalu is so beautiful! The chairs are about 25Euros for 2 chairs. It's worth it. Bring your own towels. The sand is soft and the water so clear and blue. I loved the private tour! Bring your swimsuits as you want to enjoy that water!

prima dagtocht

Een prima gids/chauffeur, die goed Engels sprak. Hij liet ons kennis maken met de cultuur en de lokale mensen die ons de producten van het land lieten proeven. Ook liet hij ons de kathedraal van Cefalu zien en vertelde hoe die tot stand was gekomen. (sage).
