About this trip
This is a private, fully guided tour around Sicily, starting and finishing in Palermo, with your own driver and local guides throughout. It's built for a relaxed pace, with comfort and elegance the focus rather than budget travel.
Food and wine feature heavily, with tastings of local specialties built into the eight days alongside daily breakfast and dinner. Accommodation is in 4-star hotels the whole way round.
Being private, the itinerary moves at your speed rather than a fixed group schedule, which suits couples, solo travellers and older travellers who want guided sightseeing without the logistics.
What you'll do
- Private driver and local guides for the full circuit from Palermo back to Palermo
- Wine and food tastings of Sicilian specialties along the route
- Daily breakfast and dinner included
- Stay in 4-star hotels throughout the island

Worth it if you get a knowledgeable, English-speaking driver and confirm logistics beforehand. Think twice if you need detailed guidance or have tight airport timing.
- Driver quality makes or breaks this tour; exceptional ones like Marco, Francesco, and Emmanuela elevate it dramatically.
- Airport pickup and hotel handover failures reported; confirm accommodation and transport details before arrival to avoid midnight chaos.
- English-speaking driver not guaranteed; several visitors got non-English speakers who couldn't provide historical context or site guidance.
- Eight days feels rushed despite excellent sites; some days pack too much in, leaving minimal free time to absorb locations.
