5/5
The Sicily trip was a good experience. Monica is a very friendly and communicative person who created a good mood during the trip. The trip itself was well organized and included relaxing on beautiful beaches as well as various local experiences (making typical Sicilian food, chocolate tasting) and sightseeing.

The entire town participates in the festivities, with locals dressed in medieval attire, musicians playing traditional instruments, and artisans showcasing their crafts.
