Hello guys! My wife and I are planning on a hike and trek on Mount Etna next week. We both are very experienced walks. However, we only packed sneakers, so I'm a bit concerned about the current hiking condition on the mountain.

There is some snow on Etna, and you would require trekking boots. However you can join up to 1.900 meters but ascent to the top is not so easy in this part of the year. For extra details surf on http://www.funiviaetna.com

Godfather Tour? From where? Costs? Details and recommendations?

Several villages and buildings havebeen involved as film locations ... it depends how long you will spend in Sicily and in which part of the Island you will lodge.
What we usually recommend is visiting Savoca, a small village located in the Messina district and not too far away from Taormina. Here you can visit the Wedding Church (theone used for the film) as well as you can have a tasting of Lemon Granita (a sort of sorbet-ice cream) with a delicious brioche.
The easy way to explore the village --instead of walking up and down -- is hiring a tuc-tuc service which cost a few euros ... really nice experience.
Contact us at info@tourofsicily.com to have more details and costs sharing also your group size and travel dates.

Hi there, I and based in Australia and would like to inquire about the best way to move from Palermo to Taormina. We are a Group of four people.

There several ways to move from Palermo to Taormina. Let me start from the BEST to the worse.
AAA: the best is hiring one driver-escort in Palermo able to drive to Taormina providing two important stopovers: one in Agrigento to allow you to visit the Temples Valley. Then continuing to Piazza Armerina giving you the chance to visit the Roman Villa. End of the day-trip directly to Taormina.
Based on it, we do arrange two different solutions:
1) a hosted tour: every Wednesday http://www.around-sicily.com/sicily-tours/Regular-Excursions.pdf
2) a private tour: daily, http://www.around-sicily.com/scheda.asp?IdItem=175&IdTours=IT
BBB: you can also move using the train www.trenitalia.com
CCC: you can move using public bus with bus Exchange in Catania (Palermo/Catania then to Taormina)
DDD: hiring an Italian speaking driver for a traight transfer http://www.around-sicily.com/transfer_booking.asp

We are porting Messina the first week of December ... do you provide excursion to the Etna volcano?

December is low season, as well as is winter .... the Etna volcano is full of snow and because of it is not feasible ascent to the top (summit).
We usually recommend to visit Taormina and the Godfather villages or Castelmola ... or in alternative just the slopes of the Etna volcano where we usually arrange a lovely winery experience with tasting of local wines.

we are considering Sicily as a next destination for our 2015 vacation. We are planning an average of 8 days. What route do you recommend?

we usually do not provide just a route since the itinerary is customized based on your needs and expectations .... in general, based on 8 days (7 nights), we do recommend Palermo, Agrigento & Taormina BUT also Palermo, Siracusa and Taormina are a great combo.

Surfing on your web site I have found the information that you usually use driver-escort. What does it mean?

the driver escort is a guy able to provide basic historical and cultural information BUT he is not a local guide and because of it he cannot escort you to visit monuments and historical/archaeological sites.
Feel free to write us at info@tourofsicily.com to have more details .. an offer .... as well as the costs to hire a local guide.
Our staff is always at your disposal

Do you handle services in Palermo or can you accommodate us for the entire Island?
