Lorenzo was a great and capable driver. The tour was self-guided which we enjoyed doing on our own at our own pace. He gave a recommendation of where to eat in Cefalu. We really enjoyed visiting all three towns and seeing the beautiful countryside and coast line!

Nothing! I understood it to be a guided trip. The driver dropped us off at two different locations and told us he would pick us later. We paid well over $500 Euros for a driver and not a guide. We could have hired a taxi and got a better experience. Your description of the the guided trip was very misleading, it was not guided. If you were to offer me a refund, I would happily accept it.
