Exciting and enjoyable visit to Etna and Alcantara!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour. Alex our guide was very informative. His knowledge of volcanoes is second to none! Would recommend taking water shoes to the gorge. Both sights are breathtaking and very beautiful. Well worth doing!

Enta tour

We were so lucky to book a tour with Lady Enna—this was one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily. Alex’s knowledge and kindness went above and beyond. His experience and genuine excitement made it clear we had the best guide. You could see the respect he has among other guides—they would call out to him, joke around, and clearly enjoy his company. It was amazing to witness. Thank you, Alex! We’ll definitely be recommending you to all our friends as the best tour in Sicily.
