DENNAS Posted February 2, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Can't seem to find many suggestions for Private (or Shared Shuttle) Tour Companies in Messina-Sicily. Want to do the Taormina/Godfather/Castlemola Day trip for my family of 3 OR get a group together from RCCL Jewel on June 3rd 2017. My Roll Call is SUPER quiet. I know about Italy Tour Sharing, aka Joe Bananas, but for us 3, it's $150 each, seems high to me, although it is an all day tour. Would love to do some price compares against other high rated Tour Co's. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted February 2, 2017 #2 Share Posted February 2, 2017 As discussed here frequently, the wonderful Rome in Limo operates in Sicily. I am curious what you consider an appropriate price. $450 for 8 or 9 hours is NOT high. Europe is not cheaper than the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindy Posted February 3, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I'm booked to do that tour with Sicily Life in April. Their price at the time I booked was 300 Euros for up to 4 people. Here's a link to the tour on their website: https://www.sicilylife.com/sicily-tours/unknown-sicilian-villages-godfather-tour Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DENNAS Posted February 3, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Thanks!! I checked into Sicily Life. Great reviews fair price! Appreciate the info- CruiserBruce- for just my family- was hoping to keep it around 100 each max- but I totally understand Europe isn't inexpensive. I'll take a look at Rome in Limo too!

hubofhockey Posted February 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Another option is Sicily with Mario. We toured with him a few years ago and would recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt. Orca Posted February 11, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 11, 2017 We are using http://www.sicilyshoretours.com And they were super efficient about responding. They have a "live chat" option on their webpage and I didn't think anyone would be around to respond but I was wrong. The tour we booked is 265€ for the car/driver, not per person. We're going to The Godfather towns and Taormina. It's a 5.5 hour tour. Castlmona isn't included but he stops at a viewpoint of the volcano. No guarantee on visibility. (I have seen Mt. Ranier about 20% of all the times I've been to Seattle.). Note, this is an English speaking driver who tells stories and anecdotes but is NOT an official tour guide who walks around everywhere with you.

TeeRick Posted May 6, 2018 #10 Share Posted May 6, 2018 We are using Sicily with Mario- highly recommended and reasonable price! We did Sicily with Mario last year (June 2017). Group of 8 people. They were excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
