Luxury Tours & Tailor-made Journeys in Italy

Salvo was like traveling with a good friend, we had a lovely time on the drives and wonderful conversations. ... Angela and Salvo from Sicilian Soul definitely treated us like family!

We particularly appreciated how flexible the day was. Salvo adjusted the order of the Etna and Silvestri Craters visits to make the most of the queues and the weather forecast, rather than simply sticking rigidly to a timetable.

It was my birthday the day of the Mount Etna/Winery tour and Salvo had arranged ahead of time to have a birthday cake made for me and delivered to the winery. This has definitely been a birthday to remember.

We went on three different tours, The Godfather tour, Wine Tasting & Mt. Etna and finally a trip to Syracusa and Ortiga. Salvo was very kind and accommodating, always explaining some hidden detail that we did not know about.

This experience was the highlight of our 2 week cruise in Europe! ... Angela and her whole family overwhelmed us with delicious food and wine, and made us feel right at home.

Salvo was very knowledgable and friendly. We saw lots that we wouldn’t have on a traditional excursion. Gorgeous lunch in Savoca also.

They are a wonderful family that gave us a glimpse of the food that makes Sicily a great place to experience traditional recipes with a modern flair. ... You need to go hungry because it’s an overwhelming abundance and variety of food that was shared.

The meal, atmosphere, host family and overall day was simply one of the best experiences I have been a part of on any journey.

Our guide, Salvo, was excellent - so friendly, accommodating, funny, and simply a delight. ... We did a few other tours during this trip but this was by far our favorite!!

Hotels, transportation, breakfasts, lunches, and every detail were taken care of, allowing us to simply relax and enjoy the experience. We never had to worry about planning or logistics.

The most emotional part was being able to visit the town where my grandparents were born before leaving for America many years ago. A journey I will always carry in my heart.

Our knowledgeable and pleasant driver Salvo, showed us around on unique and magnificent Etna, and into a lavagrote. ... He also took us to what must be one of the best vineyard experiences in the Etna area.

The experience of the Etna tour, touching the lava, tasting the delicious products of a honey farm and enjoying the best Etna wines in a real winery ... was something we will always carry in our hearts.

Visiting Savoca and Forza d’Agrò was exciting, especially for fans of The Godfather. The guide was very knowledgeable and engaging, and the places are even more fascinating in person.

Under the warm guidance of Miss Angela and her incredibly friendly son Gaetano, we learned to make fresh pasta, authentic parmigiana, and a heavenly tiramisù. ... It felt like being welcomed into a real Sicilian family.
