Claudio and Phillippo were very knowledgeable and entertaining. Caludio's English was perfect and he continuously explained all the sites and areas we were passing on our way to Modica. Phillipo's driving was perfect and he was very accommodating, professional and friendly. Upon arriving in Modica we were met by Francesca who was the ultimate guide. She is personable and extremely informative as we went through Modica and on to the Chocolate Factory. While there she introduced us to the owner and made sure we had a wonderful tour and tasted everything. As we walked through the town she took us to shops where we purchased wine , cheese and other items. She was with us the entire time and made the experience both informative and fun. My 14 year old son was enthralled with her descriptions and observations.
