What is the difference between a Driver and Guide ?
 

An English Speaking Driver is not a guide. He will drive you during your journey, helping you to enjoy the experience of seeing the sights close-up. He will give you general information and take care of the practical details of your day itinerary by contacting your local guide, restaurant and escorting you safely to your hotel or cruise-ship. The driver will be waiting outside sites.

A local Guide is the acknowledged expert of the area you are visiting. He has an in depth knowledge of the subject and can illustrate archaeological areas, museums and other places of interest in your language and with great clarity. We strongly advise you to hire a local guide in places like  Greek Theatre in Taormina, the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, the Roman villa at Piazza Armerina, the Baroque towns in Val di Noto all Unesco world heritage sites and in places like Siracusa , Ragusa , Cefalu’ , Catania and Palermo.
