About Roberto

Roberto is originally from the small seaside town of Licata in southwestern Sicily, near to Agrigento. He's spent his entire life on his home island and has been working as a private driver for almost 30 years.

Though he isn't licensed as a guide, 3 decades of touring with travelers have certainly rubbed off, and Roberto imbues his tours/transfers with fascinating information about Sicilian customs, local traditions, history, and curiosities.

Friendly and amiable, above all else Roberto is a true local. If you're looking to visit untouristed villages, secret beaches, or a hidden gem restaurant, ask away.

Because of the distances involved and to make better use of your transfer time, you always have the option to turn your transfer into what we call a hybrid tour-transfer. This means that you can make a half-day or a full-day out of your transfer, with the possibility of making stops in various towns and historical sites en route to your final destination. If you'd like to have a local guide for any of your stops, Roberto can always arrange for a trusted colleague to meet you and provide even more in-depth guidance and commentary.

All transfers are done in elegant Mercedes vehicles, either sedans or 7-seater vans.

A note from Roberto

Welcome to my island, beautiful Sicilia. I'm Roberto, a native of Licata and a private driver with over 27 years experience. Yikes... I suppose time does fly.

If you're looking to discover Sicily, it would be my pleasure to show you around the island.

My aim is always to introduce travelers to the beauty of my home, to share my knowledge of history and culture, and, of course, to get you where you need to go!

A transfer doesn't sound exciting, but that doesn't mean it can't be! To make the best use of your time, and so that you actually get to experience the places that we'll pass through, I like to make stops at historical sites (Segesta, Erice, Valley of the Temples, etc.) and in towns and cities. Because all my transfers are private, we can chat about what you're interested in, and come up with a personalized plan for the day.

And if you're just looking for the fastest route between two places, well, andiamo!

We were picked up directly at the airport. The suitcases were loaded and then the journey began. We had 2 babies and a toddler with us. Luckily we had enough space and the car was very clean. Roberto always offered to stop when we needed a break because of the (crying) babies :-)

Roberto picked us up at the airport in Catania and drove us to Licata. We were traveling with two babies and a toddler. Roberto was totally relaxed and understanding. He stopped whenever we asked. We would book him again and again :)
