    Daniele was our driver/guide. Liked him. Safe driver in comfortable van; 6 of us on the tour

    Comprehensive excursion. Communications excellent as was the pace of the 6+ hr. excursion. We walked inside a lava cave, hiked on the snow capped volcano & saw up close the devastating force of lava flows.

    I’m 70 & loved it. I skipped the longer hike on the snow (too slippery even with hiking shoes). exploring the inside of the lava cave was a bit out of my comfort zone (but I did it). I’d recommend wearing sturdy garden gloves to crawl through parts of that lava cave. Maybe the tour operator should have some at hand for the older guests who must crawl to get through a very low lava rock ceiling. Not complaining, loved it, but the gloves would’ve been appreciated. Ended up with a few scratches on my palms.

    It’s fairly priced. It was a day of learning about Mt Etna. Highly recommended despite my observations. Do it.

    We had a great experience visiting Mount Etna. They are super friendly, and that tour was a nice length of time.
    Two brothers started this and we had wine tasting afterward that was included, which was a nice surprise and very fun

    Nando was a very experienced guide and was very nice to get along with. He explained everything in detail and made sure we were safe the whole time. This tour is definitely worth the money and is a once in a lifetime experience which everyone should do at least once when visiting Catania. Thank you Nando for making this a great experience!!

    Covered with snow, very striking landscapes. Tour guide was very informative, pacing also good- certain downhill paths were slippery and not easy but everything manageable for a beginner, with plenty of small breaks. Very decent gear was provided by the tour before the trek. Would recommend!

    The weather wasn’t great and was snowy and icy which caused some other trips to be cancelled. The cable car was not open due to the weather but our guide Guiseppe helped us organise a quad bike tour which was really fun and I would recommend. It was very well organised. The wine tasting was excellent with 4 wines tasted and olive oil. We were provided with lots of great tasting food so go hungry. We bought lots of wine and oil but there was no pressure to buy
    Guiseppe was fun and really knowledgeable and was happy to answer questions and give recommendations of places to eat and places to visit
    Thank you Guiseppe you were amazing!

    Wonderful tour with nice people. We spent a lovely day including food testing. The guide new what he was talking about and gave us a very good impression of the Etna and surroundings.

    Great day trip, and Lorena our tour guide was so friendly and knew so much about all the places. Beautiful cities and nice to see more than one place. Very well organised and easy transport throughout the day.

    Great tour. A quick way to see as much of the volcano as you really need to with a fun/informative guide. Farm tour is more of a quick taste test where you can buy products, not a meal or anything. Very cool overall.

    Super cool experience, was from the most beautiful views I ever seen in my life. It’s a really worthy experience, needs some leg strength and some good physical condition as there is a lot of walking and the altitude doesn’t really help the breathing problems. There are alternatives to do the same with a van

    I would recommend the adventurous hike to anyone considering it, including members of my own family visiting later this year. The route was challenging but never felt unsafe or like a chore. Alessio was a fun guide with a lot of knowledge about local nature and history (and spoke impeccable English)

    Very interesting excursion. The landscape is so unusual and it is amazing how soon plants start to colonize the lava. The weather was sunny and we saw a few of the craters. We also enjoyed the tasting session afterwards and bought a few oils and pistachio products

    Incredible 1/2 day on the boat with Joelle and the Captain Giovanni. Joelle is smart and very well informed who seemed to really enjoy teaching us about the history and area as we sailed. We stopped at Ali Costello and swam while Joelle made us snacks and drinks which we enjoyed before we began our sail back to Catania. Very relaxing. Boat is very comfortable for sailing, and enjoyed making new (international) friends on the trip. Highly recommended would do it again if we stayed longer!

    As a hiking enthusiast, this was a must-do on my 62nd birthday trip to Sicily. My daughter arranged the tour when we returned from hiking in the Dolomites. Our guide was Massimo and he was incredibly knowledgeable, gracious and patient. His focus was on safety and he was accommodating of all fitness levels and hiking paces. Our hike was on October 16th and we were grateful to share it with new friends from several countries. The views were magnificent and the camaraderie and conversation were lovely. Since my husband is working in Sicily, we will definitely do this again when friends visit. Thank you, Massimo! 💚
