My Birthday was Celebrated "In Style" on the tour in Sicily thanks to our Tour Guide Richard Ellis.

He is Extremely Professional and Competent and Genuinely Cared about each person on the Tour. So when it was MY BIRTHDAY which was celebrated on a Tour of the Zingaro Marine and Nature Reserve he bought a Beautiful Bottle of Prosecco to share with all on the cruise and that evening for dinner he organised a Special Birthday Cake for me... A MAGIC BIRTHDAY... Thanks Richard and CHEERS To You.
