Reviews
Even if you don't like the film(s) it's a great tour with fab views!
Melbournenitee, 01-11-2022
As a fan of the Godfather movies the thought of visiting some of the filming locations in Sicily was very enticing. Not filmed in the town of Corleone as portrayed in the films; it was filmed in 2 small villages high up in the hills. One is Forza d'Agro and the other is Savoca with the obligator stop at Bar Vitellil.
The tour was 8 people and we travelled in an air conditioned mini bus and left at 10 am from Taormina getting to the villages before the big tour groups to allow a really peaceful visit . The guide provided a lot of history of the mafia in Sicily for context as well as info on the filming and locations of the films.
Even if you’re not a fan of the films the scenery is breathtaking.
The tour included a Sicilian lunch (Pasta Norma) at a lovely restaurant in the second village.
Would recommend this tour if you’re a fan of the films and Sicily in general.
Lovely day with Rosario

Rosario was a wonderful guide, and we had a great day out. It was so nice to be picked up at our villa, especially when we were exploring villages with narrow streets and difficult parking. We had a lovely lunch between our explorations.
This Godfather Tour Makes you an Offer you can't Refuse...like lunch!

My wife and I treated ourselves and our oldest daughter and husband and two small kids to a weekend trip to Sicily. When my wife told me about the Godfather tour and as a huge fan of The Godfather trilogy, I had to do this tour and I wasn't disappointed. (I think that's a run-on sentence} Denise, our tour guide, was absolutely incredible!! She provided lots of trivia, gave us background information on the areas we visited drove that van like a boss. She brought the sunshine to the party! The views of the sea are absolutely stunning as well as looking toward the mountains. The filming locations were a treat to see. I was going to post pictures, but why don't you be surprised when you get here to see for yourselves. The tour included everything advertised. When arriving in one small village,, we stopped for cappucino because it was before 11 a.m. at a little coffee shop where the film crew had their coffee. We saw a few filming locations then moved on to the town of Savoca where we did more sight seeing and had a wonderful lunch with our group. I made a few friends, three from the UK, a couple from Canada and of course, my wife and best friend as well as I'm a great friend and admirer of my self! It was a great day!
