Discover Sicily gave me exactly that - a taste of this beautiful island. Loved the trip to Etna, the Roman villa with its fantastic mosaics, the Valley of Temples. Our tour guide was knowledgeable and friendly, attentive to the group’s requests. The big question is whether I’d book with Just You again - answer, a resounding “Yes”.
