Unforgettable!!! We saw the lunar eclipse on Mount Etna guided by Lino and Augusto, wonderful people in addition to being very prepared guides and attentive to everything. Etna Passion is our go-to! We are on our fifth excursion together between Etna and Catania and every time it is more exciting! And we already can't wait to set off with them again! Highly recommended!
I had a very nice tour with my girlfriend. Augusto has a fun fact about everything and was very cozy. We've been on etna and watched the sunset. Really beautiful! Thanks Augusto for the nice tour.
Our guide Augusto was wonderful, he told us very interesting facts and made everything super educational. The tour went by with laughter, images, and fantastic stops, without forgetting the gastronomy. We are truly delighted with the guided tour, it was the best one we have done in a long time. Also, he always offers to take photos so you have memories of every spot.
Incredible. Augusto was so amazing. He even sent us stuff afterwards that connected to my love of art and history. He is a gem! He spoke to us in both Italian and English and provided snacks and wine. I would do this tour 100x more if I could. Thank you Augusto!!!
Our Mount Etna tour was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Sicily! Augusto was an exceptional guide—warm, genuine, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable. His passion for Mount Etna was contagious, and we learned so much from him throughout the day. What really stood out was how engaging he made the experience for our 9-year-old. Augusto kept the tour exciting and interactive, making it just as memorable for our son as it was for us. He also went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, answered every question thoughtfully, and ensured we were enjoying every moment. The tour itself was perfectly paced and offered a wonderful variety of experiences. We explored several different areas of Mount Etna, each with its own unique landscape and fascinating history, giving us a real appreciation for this incredible volcano. We left with a wealth of knowledge and unforgettable memories. We highly recommend this tour—especially if you’re lucky enough to have Augusto as your guide!
What a special and memorable experience this was. Super cool! Augusto is a really fantastic man with a lot of knowledge. He tells all about ethna and history with passion and enthusiasm. He took my mother very sweetly on her arm at slightly more difficult walkable parts and took many beautiful pictures of us. A better guide we could not ask for. I recommend everyone to book this tour!
Augusto was a wonderful host and guide. He brings mamma Etna to life with passion and knowledge. He was kind, caring and considerate. He went at our pace and was full of wonderful useful information both about Etna and Sicily. His geological knowledge was wonderful, and we will never forget our time with him on Etna
7 of us did the Etna and Toarmina tour with Augusto and Lino and it was fantastic. A whole day tour, with so much to see and learn. My children were fascinated and learnt so much about Sicily and Etna. Augusto and Lino were brilliant with the kids, and so knowledgeable.
We really enjoyed the day at Etna with our guide Augusto. We received a lot of information about stones and history. Even though the day was rather cold and windy, we enjoyed the stay and the company of Augusto. He is truly recommended.
Beautiful day spent on Mount Etna with Lino, our naturalist guide. With professionalism and charming irony, he told us about the past and present of our beloved 'muntagna.' Milena.
