Testimonials

I have collaborated with Sunny Sicily for many, many years, and they are the best! They always take great care of our travelers.

We highly recommend Sunny Sicily! Every driver (Dominic, Patrick, Pier, Claudio and Guiseppe) we had the pleasure of meeting was kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. They were generous with their time, sharing their personal experiences, local recommendations, and helpful tips that made our travels even more enjoyable. We always felt safe, well looked after, and in very capable hands. It was clear that they genuinely cared about providing a great experience, not just getting us from one place to another. We would definitely use Sunny Sicily again and highly recommend them to anyone travelling around Sicily!

We had a wonderful experience with our private driver in Sicily and would highly recommend their services. From the beginning, they were professional, reliable, and incredibly accommodating — even when changes to our flight times required us to adjust our plans. One of the highlights of our trip was visiting the small villages of Vallelunga Pratameno and Mussomeli, where my family originated. Having a knowledgeable and dependable driver made it so much easier to navigate these smaller towns and visit places connected to my family history. It was a very meaningful day for us, and we were able to simply enjoy the experience without worrying about transportation or logistics. Throughout our time with them, communication was easy, the service was excellent, and we always felt well taken care of. Their flexibility and willingness to accommodate our plans made a real difference in our trip. We were extremely happy with the experience and would absolutely use them again on a future trip to Sicily. Highly recommended!

Thanks, Marcello, for making such wonderful arrangements for us. We LOVED both of our drivers; they were caring and wanted us to have a great experience each day. Dominic was extremely kind and helpful in every aspect; we knew we were in excellent hands. And Pier was lovely, especially on a long-haul driving day - he helped us make last minute plans in Enna, which we loved. He found a great restaurant for us there, Restaurant Centrale at the Hotel Bristol, which was one of the best restaurants we ate at in our 2 weeks in Sicily. We had an outstanding experience because of Sunny Sicily. Thank you!

My goal was to see the home that my Grandmother was born and raised in at a small town from Messina called San Pier Niceto. Marcello when out of his way to make this happen. Between his contacts and the assistance of our driver Palo and a guide Francesco that the company provided, I located and visited her address. Thanks to Marcello I had one of the best experience of my life. God bless him and the Sunny Sicily Services. I highly recommend this company.

Everything was fantastic and ran smoothly. We used their transfers all around Sicily and every driver was just as friendly as the last. The extra attention to helping us earlier than planned when a friend was stung was truly phenomenal. They continuously checked in to follow up even after their services were complete. Highly recommend!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! We used Sunny Sicily for both airport transfers, trips to and from Palermo to Taormina, and to Siracusa in late July. Everything was organized through Marcello, who was extremely responsive, thorough, and detail oriented. He also checked in throughout the trip to continue to confirm details and everything was perfect. We had multiple wonderful drivers, who were timely, knowledgeable, and friendly. All spoke English. Pierpaolo, Patrick, and Giancarlo were our favorites. Pierpaolo transported us across the island multiple times and was great about making restroom stops as needed and kindly treated my husband to an espresso. We really enjoyed getting to know him. Patrick gave us a tour around the island of Ortigia to help familiarize us with the island. Giancarlo gave us some terrific history and pointed out stops along the way in Palermo. Everyone really went above and beyond. The vehicles were beautiful (all Mercedes) and perfect for our family of 4. Everyone was very comfortable space-wise and with air conditioning. I would highly recommend using this service and would definitely use them again on future trips to Sicily!

We had a wonderful time and particularly liked the stop at the orchard. What an insightful addition to our introduction to Sicily.

Great experience all around. Prompt and professional with excellent communication.

Prompt and professional. All around great experience. Excellent communication.

Great trip with the family. My wife and I and 3 kids. Our driver Paolo was great and we really enjoyed the farm tours especially the cheese farm. Guides were solid and well spoken. I would definitely use this company again on my return to Sicily.

I am a Travel Agent in Australia and have personally used Sunny Sicily on numerous occassions. The service, attention to detail and the communication is brilliant. Dealing with the office and in particular Marcello has been nothing but perfect. I recently had a family of 8 travelling all around Sicily from the moment they arrived until their departure was seemless. Dont hesitate to book Sunny Sicily they always deliver 1010, well done guys!!

We found SunnySicily through Rick Steve book and from the moment we spoke with Paolo and Marcello, we received great attention and care to ensure that all our needs were met . Even our last minute requests were accommodated. A special thank you to our driver Pierre, who was incredibly friendly and kind. We always felt safe and comfortable and his warm personality made the journey even more enjoyable. Natalie and Luigi, our tour guides, were exceptional, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. They made every place come alive with fascinating stories. Overall, we had wonderful experience with transportations and tour guides.

We had a fantastic day with Patrick! Everything went as planned and he went above and beyond to make it a great day. We enjoyed our guided tour in Piazza Armerina and he made a surprise stop in Caltagirone which was very nice and we enjoyed. The trattoria for lunch was delicious! Highly recommend as communication throughout the entire process was fantastic.

I booked a day trip for 2 with Sunny Sicily to take us from Siracusa to Ragusa and Modica. Marcello was in contact with us to confirm all of the details via whatapp before the trip. Patricio was a wonderful driver and he offered us plenty of time and advice at each of our stops. It made seeing both towns so seamless and stress free. Highly recommened.

We used this company to organize three private days in Sicily during our cruise, and the entire experience was exceptional from start to finish. Every transfer, guide, and stop was carefully planned, and the communication before and during the trip was outstanding. In Syracuse, our driver met us right at the port and took us to Noto for a visit to Caffè Sicilia, followed by a tour and wine tasting and lite lunch. The timing was perfect, the vehicle was comfortable, and our driver was punctual, friendly, and very professional. We never felt rushed, but we were always back at the ship with plenty of time to spare. From Porto Empedocle, we spent the morning at the Valley of the Temples and then continued to an almond and olive farm, where we learned about local agriculture and enjoyed delicious tastings. The day flowed smoothly, with tickets, timings, and driving distances all clearly thought through in advance. It was a great mix of history, scenery, and authentic Sicilian food. In Trapani, our driver‑guide helped us explore the area where my grandmother was from, which was very meaningful for our family. They shared local history and personal stories, walked with us through the town, and recommended a wonderful restaurant where we enjoyed a memorable meal. The guide clearly knew the area well and was sensitive to the emotional side of a roots visit, which made the day truly special. Traveling with four adults, we really appreciated how stress‑free everything was. All pickups were on time, the vans were clean and comfortable, and every day was customized to exactly what we wanted to see. I would highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Sicily, especially cruise passengers and families looking for personalized, well‑organized experiences.

Honestly I can't write a strong enough review for Sunny Sicily. Our guide Giancarlo exceeded any possible expectation. We hired them two days in advance of our trip with gave very little detail. Giancarlo did not care. He jumped in with nothing but passion and dedication. We were visiting the town my family came from. He made every effort to make sure our visit was unique and special which it certainly was. I can't say thank you enough.

Today was one of the best experiences of our lives. SunnySicily's level of service was way more than expected. What started out as simply hiring a driver to take us to a remote town to see where my grandfather was born, turned into a day where lifelong memories were made. From the moment our driver Patrick greeted us in the morning until he dropped us off, he was always attentive to our needs and went above and beyond with translating for us. He walked up and down the old Sicilian village and interpreted for us stories of my family's past, stories that would have been lost to time if not for him translating, ensuring we understood not only the words but the meaning. I cannot easily recall the last time my family received this level of service and it is so refreshing to know there are still kind people (and companies) who treat you like family in this world. I highly recommend SunnySicily and will book again on our next trip to Sicily, I very much look forward to seeing you again! Arrivederci!

Great service all around! The team was friendly, knowledgeable and always very attentive.

Hi Marcello, Today was one of the best experiences of my life. Thank you for accommodating us and we are so grateful for Patrick. From the moment he greeted us this morning until he dropped us off, he was always attentive to our needs and went above and beyond with translating for us. We spent the day with long lost relatives we never knew and made lifelong memories, which is what life is all about. Words cannot adequately describe the experience provided to us today. We will definitely call on you again the next time we are in Sicily! Highly recommend SunnySicily and look forward to seeing you again! arrivederci!

Marcello - thank you to you and the whole team for a fantastic trip. All of the transfers were very smooth. The wine tour was fantastic! Very memorable. We will be back and will recommend Sunny Sicily to many others. Ciao - Matt M

I had a 8 day itinerary in Sicily that just wrapped up. I flew into Palermo > and went Cefalu > Taoromina > Ortigia > Marzamemi > Pozollo Ferry terminal. Marcello and team at Sunny Sicily handled every transfer between these towns seamlessly. Excellent communication, excellent drivers in clean Mercedes cars and vans. He quoted it all up front, I paid in advance and all of the travel stress was handled. I had one driver (Dominic) three times. He was great at filling in all of the historical tidbits and setting me up for success in each town with restaurants and the type of wine I should be looking for etc. Highly recommend Sunny Sicily - I think I barely scratched the surface on what they can do because I know they do lots of fantastic tours as well but for seamless transfers this is a no-brainer.

Our group had a wonderful experience at a Noto day tour from Syracuse. "Guide and driver were amazing - knowledgeable, funny, articulate, patient….it was a great tour".

Marcello at Sunny Sicily was quick to respond and worked with me to build a great itinerary around my clients interests. As a US travel advisor, working with an experienced local DMC is key to creating a clients dream vacation- and Sunny Sicily delivered! The clients were very happy, and well taken care of during every aspect of their trip. I look forward to working with them again and highly recommend them for your visit to Sicily.
