    Jerry our tour guide was wonderful! He’s lived in Taormina for 30+ years and knew it’s history really well. He was patient and kind with our kids ages 3, 4, 6 and 12. The last stop for a sunset drink was gorgeous and relaxing.

    What a wonderful and beautiful way to learn about this beautiful city! Marco was so enthusiastic about everything that he made you love it all the more. Beautiful timing as well to see things as the light goes down on this beautiful part of Sicily. I highly recommend this tour for a very enjoyable experience and with a very nice drink and view to enjoy at the end!

    Marco was our guide and was very knowledgeable. He showed us all the important sights and experience pained them all to us. We had a slight mishap and he was extremely helpful. I totally recommend him. If I return I would definitely ask for him to be our guide again.

    We spent a great time with our savvy and entertaining guide Marco. Thanks to him, we saw Taormina through the eyes of a local person.

    Was the second tour with this company and we have discovered unimaginable corners of Taormina. We also visited the beautiful national park with plants and flowers from all over the world and the Duomo. We walked in the main street of the town (Corso Umberto) a mix of colors and smells. Our guide was informative and patient. We are happy because we have seen the real Taormina. At the end of the tour we tasted a good glass of Sicilian wine on a terrace with a wonderful view. Thank you.

    First of all, let me say that I fell in love with Taormina. Our guide was excellent. He explained the history, architecture and customs of the city to us. He also made great suggestions for places we should visit on our own. He took us to places off the beaten track and illustrated the layers of history in his beautiful city. We finished the tour with a great cocktail on the terrace of a restaurant where the Etna volcano was visible.

    That was absolutely gorgeous and must do in your life. We will remember this experience forever. Fantastic view, excursion, the whole atmosphere, food. This day we will remember forever as one of the best day in our life. We also took other tours from Prestelli and they were perfect. Thank you very much for one of the best days in our lives. You are the best!

    We had holiday Taormina for five days and did lots of exploring, but doing this tour allowed us to see parts of the town we would never have discovered by ourselves. Chiara was kind, engaging, and super passionate about Taormina. Memorable day. Would highly recommend this tour.
