    Orazio was a great guide and good driver. We had so fun and learned so much about the area, the movie and of course the mafia! We visited the beautiful villages, church and met an 89 years young man who was in the Godfather film! Lunch at the end was delicious. Totally recommend this tour!

    We really enjoyed this tour, the places you visit are beautiful, the guide Antonio was very knowledgable and made the day very interesting. Lunch was in a nice small restaurant. This tour shows you locations of the film but also gives you a lot of Italian history I would highly recommend it

    Tour guide Denise was terrific. Loved the unique scenery and history of parts of Sicily we would otherwise not know existed. Good tie-in with The Godfather trilogy. Great lunch and great group of people.
