MR AND MRS RANDALL, USA, Sicily September 2019
We would like to take a moment to say how much we enjoyed our recent small-group tour of Sicily. After having a wonderful experience last year on Secret Italia’s Spain tour, we were concerned that our expectations for this year’s tour might be set too high. Would the hotels meet the same high standards of comfort, location, and service? Would the included meals be as thoughtfully selected, flavorful, and interesting, and introduce us to the unique cuisine and culture of this island? Would the local guides at our various stops succeed in bringing to life the long and varied history of the island in an interesting and engaging way? And what about the pace of the trip? Would we spend enough time in each location to actually get to know these places? And at the same time, would we cover enough of the island to understand its diversity and contrasts? And last but not least, would our Sicily tour director and driver provide the same exceptional level of service that we experienced last year? The answers, of course, are yes, yes, yes, yes, and yes! Simply stated, this tour was excellent in every way. Secret Italia puts a great deal of thought and planning into their tours, and it shows in every respect. We especially want to acknowledge our tour director, Rosaria.What a gem! Thoroughly professional, very well prepared, engaging, and cheerful. She was always happy to recommend a restaurant, make a reservation, or suggest points of interest to explore in our free time. And she succeeded in keeping our group focused and on schedule throughout the trip, all the while maintaining her bubbly sense of humor. One could not ask for better service. In short, we thoroughly enjoyed our small-group tour of Sicily, and we are already looking forward to our next Secret Italia adventure.

MRS J MITCHELL (CANADA) Sicily 12 days October 2019
My husband and I just finished our 11 day Secret Italia tour with Luca. It was one of the best tours we have ever been on and Luca was fantastic.The attention to detail was evident, the pace of the tour was perfect, the activities well planned and the variety greatly appreciated.The quality and location. of the hotels excellent and the food experiences fantastic. Our only complaint is that we put on a few pounds.A very special thanks and acknowledgement to Luca. His caring, thoughtful and professional manner are to be commended. We also loved his sense of humor and of course his beautiful voice which touched us all.Our tour group was also exceptional. We all got along so well and commented many times how much we liked travelling with a smaller group of travellers. The van we traveled in was very comfortable and our driver Giuseppe was very good. We felt safe and relaxed.You have truly discovered the secret of what it takes to create an exceptional tour experience and we will definitely spread the word.

MR LOPEZ, USA Sicily tour October 19
I wanted to drop you a note to pass along my impressions and my gratitude to you and your company for our marvelous tour of Sicily.From start to finish it was perfection. Everything happened like clockwork. Every connection, every hotel welcome and farewell, every restaurant and ancillary tour.It was remarkable.My husband is very well read about ancient history, I am not. Your tour guide, Luca, was very well spoken and opened our eyes to the history of this magnificent place. Everyday was a new experience and new complex information was pulled together and presented from beginning to end. At the end of the day the group would marvel at the days experiences. It was clear that you and your company have spent many thought filled hours to present to us a cohesive history of a very complex, and it would appear divisive culture that has survived and flourished in a way the whole world needs to know.I wish I was able to communicate to you adequately how much the gift of this tour has changed my life.We (the whole tour group) do know that this sort of success only comes from the top down. Thank you. Keep up the astonishing work you do. The world is becoming a smaller place. Secret Italia is helping to make it a world we can understand and embrace.On a side note my husband developed a kidney stone just prior to reaching Catania and your guide, Luca, stepped in. While keeping the rest of the group on schedule, he and the driver ensured we were quickly attended to and the situation resolved. Securing another cultural experience for our memories. We will always be grateful for this attention and the Italian healthcare system. Also a note the driver was incredible, calm, kind – everyday.Thank you again for this incredible experience. We wish you all the success your hard work deserves. We would recommend your company without reservation and we look forward to the opportunity of another tour with your company.

MR AND MRS BLACKWELL, USA Sicily September 2019
We arrived home late Sunday evening and find it difficult to believe our wonderful experience in Sicily is over. We waited almost a year since we booked the tour and now that it’s over we want you to know it exceeded our expectations. We now understand what it means that if you haven’t been to Sicily, you haven’t been to Italy.The tour went without any problems. Rosaria is an amazing tour manager who took care of all of our needs and more. Everything we did and everywhere we went was timed perfectly between Rosaria and Giuseppe, the hotels, restaurants and local guides. Rosaria’s knowledge of the island, cities, archaeological sites, demographics and traditions is quite extensive. We don’t think we asked her anything she couldn’t be counted on to answer. Rosaria is a confident and caring and accomplished manager. It was her personality that impressed us most, however. She was always cheerful, optimistic, engaging and has a great sense of humor. She told wonderful stories about her family and provided many insights into Sicilian traditions and food, of which we ate far too much. And her love for her homeland and her job beautifully color everything she does and says.You have done a masterful job seeking out interesting places to stay, visit and eat. You have certainly done extensive research. A shorter tour of the temple and a little longer general tour of the town might have been more enjoyable.Not that you had anything to do with it, but the weather was as gorgeous as the sights. In Taormina neither of us could believe the views we had from our room, sunrise over the sea and sunset over Mount Etna. Sicily is a beautiful and magical island and we want to thank you again for our special time with Secret Italia Tours and, of course, for Rosaria.

DAVID AND HILARY BIRTWHISTLE (AUSTRALIA)
My wife Hilary and I participated in the Secret Portugal tour conducted in May 2016.I have to say that we thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. The carefully-designed itinerary covered many of the most of historical and interesting parts of the very beautiful country. The small buses were comfortable and facilitated access to areas such as the tightly-winding roads through the terraces of the Douro where the views were remarkable. Meals provided in the wineries were excellent. All of the hotels were very good and we found travelling with a small, friendly group added to the holiday experience.Our guide Carla gave us good insights into the history and the customs and way of life of Portugal.She was an outstanding tour leader,always pleasant, nothing was too much trouble and she constantly ensured that we were doing things that we enjoyed. I really appreciated her depth of knowledge and sense of humour. Her patient explanations and stories about the country considerably added to our enjoyment of the tour

ROSEMARY VILLANI (CANADA)
Just completed the amazing Sardinia and Corsica tour with Secret Italia. Many many thanks to Aldo for this wonderful experience and his endless energy and cheerfulness to make this trip go off without any problems. The sites, accommodations, restaurants, size of the group and pace was top notch – way surpassed my expectation. He made sure all of the details were to your satisfaction. Thanks also to Ricardo for guiding us and Stefano for driving us around Sardinia. And to Sandy for driving us to our destinations in Sardinia.I highly recommend this tour with Secret Italia. It’s well worth it.

MRS AND MRS WISE (USA)
The tour met or exceeded all our expectations. It is a 10 of 10! Having Rosaria, who is such a knowledgeable and well-organized person as our tour leader, meant that everything went very smoothly throughout the tour. Her love of Sicily is contagious. She was always one step ahead in terms of coordination and ready to provide suggestions or assistance, but also made the trip fun and interesting. All of the staff we met affiliated with Secret Italia contributed to making the trip especially enjoyable and congenial and we also appreciated the special local tour guides who enriched our experience of the site visits. The Secret Italia Land of Contrasts tours was so special because of the way the itinerary was put together and the charming hotels we were able to enjoy along the way.We appreciated the careful selection of venues and the diversity of activities in the program very much and take a hat off to you.

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 FLYNN (AUSTRALIA)
We have finally returned home to Australia after two months in Europe/U.K. and we would like you to know how much we enjoyed our tours with your company (Puglia/Basilicata and Sicily). Very well organized. Everything ran like clockwork. Beautiful accommodation, delicious food, interesting experiences, comfortable vehicles with excellent drivers. However, the ‘icing on the cake’ were the two tours managers, Paula and Daniela.True professionals, excellent knowledge, enthusiasm and love for their regions and a great sense of fun. If the rest of your tour managers are of the same caliber as these two ladies, you must have a very successful business. You appear to have the knack of choosing the right people and we hope you thoroughly appreciate them. We hope to travel with your company again one day.
