Guest's review of Saga Holidays

“Seriously Sicily”

★★☆☆☆

written by on 10/07/2018

Noto. Hotel Grand Hotel Sofia. Too far from the village. Hotel food very poor. Evening waiting staff 3 in number very unhappy nag so rude.
Palermo Hotel Garibaldi central hotel but noisy position 3 nights too long.
Maxara del Vallo Hotel Mahara comfy rooms nice position. Town ever very small guided tour went on and on and on really nothing too see. Food menu the same as 1st hotel.
4 hours to last hotel in Giardina Naxos but Saga stretched it out with stops on those unfurl service stations. Why the last stop for a lunch was only 35 mins from the hotel why could we not eat lunch near the hotel there were plenty of places. Hotel Hellenia Yachting Hotel very comfy rooms very expensive drinks and guess what the same menu as the other 2 hotels Saga guests seem to have a different menu to other guests.
Optional extra excursions are expensive and are only churches of different sizes. The chocolate factory was not worth a visit.
Note local bus to Taomina is 3 euros return 20 mins travel time. Saga charge 10 times that amount. Unless you like seeing church after church give this tour a miss. Good point countryside is pretty but you only see from coach

Totally agree! I must of been on that same holiday as you. Please don't bother folks if you want to be standing for long lengths of time in the heat listening to the same history but different guide. I think we must have visted at least 8-10 churches. 3 on the first day. The Cathedral is Spectacular but I question the opulence when the money could be spent on poorer souls. Food was awful in all hotels except Palermo as it wasn't included. Never been so glad to get home.
