Hi Andrea: Are you on the October 26 sailing of the Equinox? If you have not already done so, join us on our roll call on Cruise Critic (http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1501925).
As for private shore excursions in Messina, I have booked Mario Astone. (My tour is full. I may have a couple cancelling. I will know this week.) I know he has a brother that also is a driver/guide. He can be reached via Mario's website (http://www.sicilywithmario.com/default.asp?lang=en&p=default).
APTours gets great reviews on all the boards for tours in Naples (http://www.aptours.it/).
Hope this helps.
Hi Barb - we are signed up for the Oct 26 sailing as we are for the roll call on cruise critic. We are a group of four now. If you have any cancellations please let me know. Thanks again for the advice on tour guides.
Hi Andrea - I kinda thought it was you & Joel.
