Carmelo Caruso was our wonderful guide through Inspector Montalbano’s favorite haunts, including the beautiful town of Scicli, the location of his beautiful office and Punta Secca, the wonderful Beach town where Montalbano spent much of his time. We learned much about Italian life from Carmelo, a warm, engaging man who loved his work and goes the extra kilometer to make sure you have a great time. A great way to see towns you might easily miss! Highly recommended!

Brilliant trip, really enjoyed it. Carmelo really took care of us and recommended a great restaurant for lunch. We also used the company to take us to the airport and Carmelo picked us up again. Highly recommended.
