          What a marvellous day we had in Sicily with Nicola Coppola and Silvi. Nice vehicle, excellent driving, charming people. Nico is a real character, lots of fun and laughs. Delightful surprises! If you love "The Godfather" the village of Savoca is a must see.. One of the best ever private tours.

          Great way to see Sicily!
          Tour was amazing! Got to see so many sights and take a lot of great photos. Plus we had time to be on our own and do what we wanted during the tour. The driver and guide were so great at making the day special for us.

          Reliable driver and photo ops too!
          Nicola picked us up at the port and brought us to Taormina. He brought us to a couple of extra sites to take a few quick photos. It was a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend Nicola for your next experience in the Messina region. Grazie Nicola!

          Yana is an incredible guide and so kind. We had a great time and got to see some beautiful parts of Sicily. Even had a clear view of Mount Etna! Travel was comfortable and waters were provided. Our group of 10 had a great time.

          Amazing! 5 stars is not enough!
          Amazing!!! Can’t compliment this company enough! First the owner, Nicola, caught my mistake when I booked our group tour on the wrong day at port for our cruise by cross checking our ship information and fixed it for us. Like wow… talk about saving the day! The day of the tour we had lovely Silvia as our guide (native to the area) and she was so knowledgeable, kind, answered all our questions and took us to the most amazing destinations. Highly recommend!!! Don’t even think and just book! We were so thrilled with their service, we asked Nicola if he could set up a tour for us the following day (at a completely different port in Italy) and low and behold, he called a friend and experienced another incredible day!! Oh and don’t be surprised if Nicola pops up at your destination and requests a photo!

        We were speechless. The views were breathtaking! The day was spectacular and we cannot say enough about Sicily Tour by Coppola. We were met by Niccola Coppola in Messina and travelled to Castelmola. What a lovely village. Niccola took us to a quaint but 'memorable' local bar and restaurant to start and then we enjoyed the shops the beautiful church and amazing vistas before heading to Taormina. No wonder Taormina is called the Pearl of the Ionian Sea. Stunning. Wonderful views, fabulous restaurants and Cathedrals that amaze. We retunred to Messina where we spent some time learning some fascinating history, seeing the port, another amazing cathedral, The bell tower of the Cathedral of Messina contains the biggest and most complex mechanical and astronomical clock in the world. We loved Niccola and Sicily Tour by Coppola!

        We stayed for a family holiday in Messina. Mr. Alberto Maimone Nicola's nephew spent a whole day with us. He showed us Castelmola (We also went to Bar Turrisi), Taormina and even Messina. Alberto and a very polite and kind man offered us a tasting of the typical wines of Casteloma and also the granita and the Messinese cannoli. Thank you Alberto and Nicola we had an unforgettable holiday!

        We took a private tour with Nicholas and Axel. They were absolutely outstanding from start to finish. They were on time, provided us with cold drinks, amazing history/information on all the stops and treated us to cannoli at the end. Axel was so kind with our two boys (10 and 8) and made it interesting for them too. Highly recommend this tour!
