Corrado was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great time walking around Noto and learning about its history. The arancini at the end were delicious. I highly recommend this tour.
Biagio was a very personable guide. He is from Sicily and gave us insights to culture as well as history. He took us to wonderful quality shops and for the most amazing pastries and coffee! A must do
We had a great guide, who knew the town really well. He picked us up on time and kept us entertained the whole car ride. I was with a teenager which is not always an easy task! We walked the town and then ended at a pastry shop and had the most amazing canolis! I highly recommend. Tour guide was Biagio.
Corrado was a consummate professional and made the trip smooth and enjoyable. Noto is a beautiful town and well worth the visit! We also ate the best arancino of our lives thanks to Corrado’s guidance.
This tour was exceptional. Our guide Corrado was so knowledgeable and hospitable. Noto is a beautiful town and the arancino we ate at the end of the trip was the best we’ve ever eaten.
We enjoyed BIAGIO’s hospitality, knowledge and wealth of information. Noto is a must see and is best with BIAGIO explaining the architecture and stories behind the buildings. Thank you!
Excellent private tour! We were picked up from our cruise ship and taken to explore Sicily. They were very flexible and willing to make the tour unique to the things we wanted to do and arranged everything for us. Gambino winery was amazing and a must! Bruno was an excellent tour guide and driver! Highly highly recommend!
Biagio was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and with very good English. We learned so much about beautiful Noto. We went to an authentic Sicilian bakery for cannoli - delicious! Also time for shopping. Highly recommend this tour.
Prestelli tours built a custom itinerary for us starting in Noto and then on to a very special wine tasting and finishing at Marzememi. Michael was a great tour guide and Maritza was a wonderful driver. We learned so much and really enjoyed every moment. Wonderful day with Prestelli tours. Would never have experienced such places without the Prestelli tours
Very enjoyable afternoon driving to Noto and walking the streets with an exceptional guide, then back Syracuse for coffee and gelato on the square. The best cannoli ever in Noto
