THIS is the company to TRUST! Every member of this company cares about you and takes care of you completely!! We had a terrible morning because our ship docked at a different location than what is normally used which left us separated from our guide. Even though we lost time in the morning, this company went out of their way to more than make up for it! When booking the excursion we asked them to take us to a specialty shop for some specific items. Imagine our surprise and pleasure to find out that the office manager went to the shop and got the items for us, then drove to meet us on tour, surprising us with the items! How gracious, kind and thoughtful, this allowed us to keep to the tour and get our items without wasting time. We cannot say enough about Prestelli Sicily Tours and will always use them when we travel to Sicily!

What a magical day touring wineries in Mt. Etna region! Elena was a fantastic guide and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. All 3 wineries were diverse and incredible. Was a dream day for me and my fiance.

We actually did two tours with Prestelli - this one and the six hour tour to 3 wineries. The tour guides were top notch - Alessandra for our Mt. Etna tour, and Elena for the winery tours. Both were extremely knowledgeable as well as wonderful to talk to. We highly enjoyed walking around Mt. Etna and were lucky to have a beautiful day with clear views. The company itself was extremely easy to deal with. Highly recommend using them!

We actually did two tours with Prestelli - this one and one to Mt. Etna walk with lunch and wine tasting at a winery. The tour guides were top notch - Alessandra for our Mt. Etna tour, and Elena for the winery tours. Both were extremely knowledgeable as well as wonderful to talk to. My favorite winery was one I actually chose - Filippo Grasso. The only thing I would inquire about is how many wines you will actually taste at each winery. Some of the wineries seemed more interested in giving you a lot of food and less wine - still wonderful but we were expecting more wine and less food. The company itself was extremely easy to deal with. Highly recommend using them!

We had the pleasure of touring Ortigia with the most wonderful guide, Biagio Giaccone through Prestelli tours. Prestelli were very easy and flexible to work with. Biagio was incredibly knowledgable, informative, interesting and fun. He was such a pleasure to spend time with provided an insiders perspective to the beautiful and rich history, culture, and charm of Ortigia.

We loved the Godfather tour. Our guide Bruno shared many insights of the movies being filmed. Bruno was a terrific guide. He made our tour very memorable.

Prestelli Tours was a pleasure to work with from beginning to end. The office staff answered emailed questions very promptly during the planning phase, which made it so easy. What’s more, they didn’t even request a deposit. Payment is requested in cash at the time of the tour. And then the tour: our guide Alberto picked us up right at our hotel in Taormina and he was wonderful. He is studying for his advanced degree in vulcanology at the local university, and has lived his whole life with Etna outside his bedroom window. He couldn’t have been more friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. First we stopped at a place to taste and buy local honey and wine, then on up the mountain to a lava tube where we hiked in a hundred meters or so. The ground was very rocky and uneven, so wear good shoes! Then on to the parking area near the cable car. We opted not to go up and hike further upslope, but there are lots of very cool extinct cones to hike on near the parking lot. The views are amazing, the place is otherworldly. Then on to a winery for a tasting and lunch. Prestelli has a relationship with several local wineries, we were taken to La Gelsomina, which I highly recommend for its charming owner who was happy to chat with us about the wine and his wine business. The food was very good as well. We also visited a second winery which also served food. This place, Gambino, was a much bigger and slicker operation, with lots of tour buses rolling through, but still very pleasant. At the end of the day we were tired, full and happy. Highly recommend Prestelli.

We had a lovely day with our informative guide, Carmelo, who was very wine knowledgeable. A wonderful lunch at Vini Lizzio and arancini at Nero vineyards. Highly recommended.

We had a fabulous day tasting MT Etna wines with Roberto. The producers were all small and incredibly welcoming. And the wine was fantastic. Roberto was a knowledgeable and warm host. Whether you are a wine lover or just looking for a day full of stunning views away from the Taormina tourists, I highly recommend!!

We really enjoyed this tour recommend for anyone a fan of the Godfather movies you see the towns and the church. The drive was very pretty and Bruno was a great tour guide ask for him if you book. The lunch was very good too. Excellent tour.

Overall, the combination of excellent wines, beautiful scenery, and passionate storytelling made this wine tour a must-do for any wine enthusiast visiting Sicily. I left with not only new favorites but also a deeper appreciation for Sicilian winemaking traditions. Highly recommended!

We took a private day tour to three Etna Wineries. Prestelli is simply the best. We had the most wonderful day visiting three very unique and different types of vineyards. One included a beautiful lunch. But what made our experience even better was Prestelli's accommodation to a last minute port change from our Ritz Carlton Yacht itinerary which put us into Sircusa the day before we originally scheduled . I contacted them less than 48 hours before our arrival to Siracusa, and they worked so hard to accommodate the change and the day was absolutely perfect. I would definitely use Prestelli again and will let anyone know how dependable and wonderful they are to work with.

This was by far the best tour in Taormina we did! It was more than just the Godfather movie history, it was a beautiful tour through the hill towns of the area . Bruno is by far the very best tour guide we ever had and much to our surprise and good fortune the same guide we had last April 2023. He is dedicated to preserving the beautiful and rich history of Taormina. In addition the late lunch was the very best food we had in Sicily . Thank you Bruno for making this one of our best experiences in Taormina and one we’ll never forget !

This was an truly exceptional experience largely due to our tour guide Alessandra. She was wonderful in communicating with us the night before so we were all set for the morning. She is a born and raised in the area and took the time to share a lot of great history and current events with us while expertly driving us around the Etna countryside. We learned and laughed a lot! The wineries were each unique and lovely with great hosts, wine and food. We especially loved our visit with the two brothers and the lunch they prepared for us. It felt very boutique and special and the small batch wines they shared were truly unique and while we each had our own cars and drivers we met two other lovely couples which was unexpected and fun. All in all it was a great value and experience!

This is our second time in Sicily and this tour represents all the beauty of the island. The mountains and the sea. Our guide Francesco was kind and never rushed us. The arancini were tasty. Thank you for the unforgettable day.
