Meet Giorgio, your local guide in Sicily

Giorgio organized a fantastic tour of Segesta, Erice and the Trapani salt pans for my family. We departed from Palermo. Along the route to Segesta, Giorgio pointed out various areas of interest including different types of agricultural land, old rail lines, and the various towns we passed through. Once in Segesta, we went up to the acropolis and Greek Theater. The view was breathtaking, and Georgio pointed out different landmarks visible from the mountaintop. We explored several of the excavated building sites and the theater before moving down the hill to the reconstructed temple itself. From Segesta we headed to Erice, where we took in various vistas, notable buildings, and sampled delicious local food. We also saw a bit of the Easter Passion procession through town, which was a definite highlight. We went on to view the salt pans outside of Trapani before heading to Montelepre, our final destination. Our tour with Giorgio was a highlight of our trip to Sicily! We appreciated that he was so accomodating in personalizing the tour to meet our needs.

Was hoping to get one driver for our entire stay in Sicily, but ended up with 4 different drivers. They were all generally very nice, arrived on time, but sometimes had problems getting around in the cities where we stayed. Not always their problem, many times the streets were pedestrian only, but sometimes it seemed as if they were not completely familiar with the city we were in. Overall however, they were generally good, but we did have to do alot of walking. Would have been better if we had 1 driver the whole time who we could get to know and who would be a little more responsive to what we were looking to do.

Giorgio was excellent. The tour was great. We had a lovely lovely day in Segesta and Erica. Thank you again.

Had a great day at the Valley of the Temples with Giorgio. He was a wealth of information and very helpful with suggestions on activities we should do on our own. Giorgio’s attention to detail and explanation of the various temples was fantastic. It was well worth the visit and would recommend the trip to anyone interested in learning more about the history of Sicily.

We had the most wonderful time in Sicily with Giorgio Calo'. There is certainly no doubt that Giorgio's input as our guide and driver during the tour was instrumental in making this holiday such a fantastic experience. Giorgio has a wealth of deep knowledge of Sicily's ancient history, archeology, culture, tradition, and food which is second to none. His life experience and his unmissable passion for Sicily has also shaped his vast knowledge of the island's recent history, its politics and economics. Over the course of 7 days, we enjoyed the tours that were also delivered with utmost professionalism and courtesy. We toured much of the island with Giorgio, visiting many of the famous sites. We are experienced travellers and have previously been in many tours in different parts of the world. However, we can certainly say that Giorgio's service as tour guide and driver was exceptional. We therefore recommend him very highly to all visitors who wish to have a memorable holiday on this beautiful Island.
