Testimonials
MR ALSCHULER AND MRS HENDLER (USA)
Dear Aldo,Sorry for the delay, but we did want to let you know what a wonderful time we had on the Sicily tour last month.The itinerary was terrific – both inclusive and varied. By the end, we felt we had explored so many places, and had so many experiences that we would never been able to find on our own. The activity level for the tour was perfectly paced, with a great balance of planned activities and free time. The group lunches and dinners were all well done and delicious. Rosaria was fabulous. She was knowledgeable, well organized, warm, friendly, and concerned that each of us have the best possible experience. She gave us some great advice and watched over our food carefully to make sure that Roberta was not served anything she is allergic to. She coped expertly with unexpected problems, such as a food festival that caused an unexpected traffic and parking problem. Her pride in being from Sicily, and her joy in sharing its wonders and secrets with us was infectious, and made the whole trip special.We also appreciated how well you and Katrin run the company, both in your planning and in your correspondence with us before the tour. All in all, it was a great trip and we would definitely recommend your tour to anyone planning a trip to Sicily.

MR AND MRS WHITE (USA)
We were brand new to the ‘group tour’ experience. Each new day had us thinking about how selecting the Secret Italia tour was so much the right choice for this trip. We had a terrific time. The itinerary, the mix and balance each day, the choices of sites, and the pacing showed that our tour was designed with care, not merely assembled. That we were getting a sense of Sicily, not just checking off sites to see.Rosaria was a wonder for her energy, enthusiasm, and unwavering helpfulness.And for transforming a mix of cautious strangers into a group of traveling friends.

I wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed our tour of Sicily.Our accommodations were wonderful, luckily I was Mary’s roommate and got to share the deluxe hotel rooms! Also all of the restaurants were excellent. My favorite was Rita, Susanna and Alessandro’s home.Our driver Andrea was excellent on all of the difficult roads up and down the mountains.And Luca was a remarkable tour guide. Our entire family fell in love with him! He is a very special person. So personable, knowledgeable, and talented.Everything combined made for an unforgettable vacation with family and friends. Thank you again. Looking forward to my next Secret Italia trip!

MR AND MRS MARANVILLE (USA), Sardinia & Corsica May 25
Jim and I wanted you to know that the Sardinia/ Corsica trip was wonderful. Beyond our expectations. The hotel rooms, and the ones with a sea view, were spectacular. Piero’s sharing of his knowledge of the Islands was a great learning experience. The vistas, the wine makers, the bread maker, the olive oil master-all wonderful. And then the food- fabulous just thinking of the various foods and desserts make me want dinner. For me Sardegna was the best. Jim and were able to include a pre/trip visit to reacquaint with a 1st cousin, that I had not seen in 35 years , and his family. At the end of the tour, we flew to Marseille to reacquaint with a 1st cousin I had not seen in 65 years! They were special visits. I say thank you very much and who knows there could be another Secret Italia trip in our future

MRS VIRGINIA MCCORMAC (USA
Bonnie Morosi and I traveled with your tour in May and it was wonderful! Your planning and choice of hotels and sites were memorable. The lunch with Rita and Suzanne was excellent and what lovely people. Christian, our driver, was so professional and a pleasure to be with as we drove from one destination to another. Our guides were knowledgeable and informative, and I streamed 245 pictures home with typed descriptions. Coming to Sicily connected me to my heritage and I felt as though I had visited family. Thank you for the pristine planning and for checking on every day to make sure we were happy. I will visit Sicily often. I am encouraging my friends to visit Sicily and use Secret Italia tours. It was a remarkable two weeks!

MR AND MRS GOODMAN (USA), Puglia & Basilicata September 2019
Hi Aldo, We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our recent Secret Italia Tour of Puglia. We have traveled a lot all over Europe, but our time in Puglia was probably the best vacation we’ve ever had. Every little detail was planned to perfection, and Paola was the epitome of an informed, fun and caring tour leader. Our hotels were very comfortable and offered delicious breakfasts. The restaurants (and other food offerings) were wonderful. The many sites we visited were interesting and varied. There was free time included so we could also explore on our own or rest. The small bus that ferried us from place to place was comfortable and always waiting for us at the appointed time and place. We saw a lot, ate a lot, laughed a lot and learned a lot – doesn’t get any better than that! Our thanks and congratulations to you for offering such a fine tour. Hope to travel with Secret Italia Tours to another interesting place!

MR AND MRS TAYLOR, AUSTRALIA Sicily and Malta September 2019
We are now back in Australia and trying to get ourselves back into the right time zone.We wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed both of our trips.We love Malta!!!!!It is surprising how little people know about Malta, so we have been spreading the news.The itinerary was very well balanced with plenty to see and always plenty to eat and drink. From Band Clubs to amazing restaurants and from ancient ruins to beautiful churches.The crystal clear blue water and the contrast of the cream stone buildings.We were blessed with an engaging group of people with whom to share our experiences and have a good laugh.We also need to thank Cynthia who was an amazing guide.She was extremely knowledgeable and she exudes a love for her country. She was very caring and always attentive to any of our needs.Not that there were many because the tour was so well organised.We are telling everyone to GO TO MALTA it is really beautiful and despite its size there is PLENTY TO DO.Sicily was also an amazing experience and again our group was a great mix of wonderful people. There were so many wonderful shared experiences and great discussions.We have told them all that they should go to Malta!!Sicily was an extensive tour packed with so many wonderful things to see and we wouldn’t have wanted to miss any of them. So much history in such a small country. Amazingly intact ancient ruins and UNESCO listed churches,wine, salt, olives and olive oil and beautiful small towns. Something interesting and different every day from the Mafia to the opera.We have to make a special mention of the amazing Rosi. The enjoyment of our tour was definitely helped by her engaging personality, her incredible knowledge and her wonderful sense of humour.
Her care for everyone on the tour, whatever their needs and particularly her help and care on the night that David was injured and had to make a little trip to hospital. That definitely was one occasion when I desperately wished that I spoke Sicilian. I would love to have understood what she was saying to those boys on the bikes.Thank you again. It was so good to meet you both in Malta. We will definitely be spreading the news about your wonderful Secret Italia Tours.

MR AND MRS BIANCO (USA) SICILY, Sept 2019
We are so pleased to tell you that our recent trip to Sicily was absolutely amazing. Though our travels have been many, we can truthfully say going to Sicily was on the top of our list as our favorite.All of the hotels, had their own charm but the Hotel in Taormina ranked as our ultimate favorite. Since we’ve returned home we have sung your praises to our family and friends.There is just one complaint….it comes from our stomachs. We are no longer eating all the delicious meals we had on the trip. Now it’s just three meals with no antipasto no primo or second courses. We would be remiss if we did not give accolades to our charming, delightful, and very knowledgeable guide, Rosaria. Actually, all of the different city guides did a very fine job.Hopefully we will continue to have good health so we could take another Secret Italia trip.

MR AND MRS BRAYBON (AUSTRALIA)
Gary and I have just returned home to Melbourne and I wanted to express our delight with our recent tour in Puglia with Paola and 10 other wonderful fellow travellers.The tour covered so many different aspects of the area and we were able to gain a real sense of the area and the people. Paola is amazing, intelligent, knowledgeable and seriously personable.Her manner with a small group of people is respectful but very engaging, enabling each member of the group to feel catered for and acknowledged.Paola is one of the best guides we have ever had the privilege to share a journey with and her professionalism and warmth enhanced this small group tour.The itinerary was fantastic, enabling us to enjoy a great variety of experiences in an informed,interesting manner yet allowing enough time to explore and enjoy the different locations without a feeling of being rushed.The different meals were wonderful and the choice of restaurants and the variety of styles enabled us to appreciate the culinary delights of the region.A fantastic trip and we would recommend your tours to all fellow travellers. I have read you new brochure, [a very stunning presentation] and would now like some more detail about the tours in regard to dates

MR AND MRS STERLING (USA) Sicily, May 24
Sam and I would like to thank you for your wonderful Sicily Land of Contrast Tour! In 2016 we went with Paola on your Unknown Puglia and Matera Delights and we had a fabulous time. So many beautiful villages and wonderful food! We still talk about it to friends.While on that tour we met other couples who had taken your Sicily tour and highly recommended it. They were enthusiastic about recommending it, in fact! So it was on our list as a “must do”.We loved every minute of Sicily Land of Contrast! We are still basking in the memories of the beautiful sights, wonderful people, the history and the great food. Our only regret is that we wished we had more time there! We love the special touches that you provide on your tours from knowledgeable local guides to the visits for a lovely lunch at the olive oil farm (what a delightful treat!), the delicious home made lunch at the farm in Mitogio and the Palazzo visit. Such personal encounters with the “real Italy” help to make your tours so special.We have to also praise the wonderful meals at the restaurants you chose – we enjoyed and took pictures of every feast!Last but not least I want to share that we loved traveling with Luca. He was a fabulous tour leader! He helped to make this trip one of our favorites. He was very thoughtful and also quite entertaining. Luca went above and beyond helping us with things – like making reservations, sending a package home from the post office and arranging for a cab for us to go to a performance in Syracuse. He was very attentive to us all and also made sure that we were pleased with our hotel rooms – which we were, indeed! We especially loved our hotel in Taormina. We have and will continue to recommend your tours to our family and friends!
