Smooth trip with pick up and drop off at the place we were staying in Catania. Francesco was an excellent guide. The tour was ideal for first time visitors, offering a mix of guided and free time, and a variety of activities, from easy trekking on Etna to exploring a lava cave, testing local honey and exploring on our own beautiful Taormina. Ideal for those who do not feel comfortable driving around on their own. We enjoy the trip very much. Thank you Francesco!
Salvatore was very helpful and informative. The visit was fun with Mt. Etna, wine tasting, and a visit to Taormina. The pick up and drop off to Catania went very smoothly.
Best trip if you want an easy, but beautifull hike & wine tasting. Salvo knows lot of thing about Etna and also the area of the montain. Sunset and alá a rubel also marveloous
Excellent half day stroll with Florence and Eduardo our French guides. They are lovers of their profession and they pass it on to us wonderfully. Never shy of explanations or changes of itinerary to accommodate a last minute physical problem. The Mama Etna excursion on their side was very pleasant and rich in discovery
Fantastic time, could not have been any better. All scheduling went as planned. Simone is very knowlegable, funny, and respectful. We had a nice group, put his one on your list.
Being above the clouds at mt. Etna was amazing. I would have liked to try the e bikes to go up the mountain but wasn't sure if i needed more experience.
The guide was well informed and entertaining. I also enjoyed the tasting at the end and meeting the oither people .
It was a great experience, a wonderful place and a great guide, but you can't get 7 people in such a small SUV, and whose trunk door was broken.
Pick up and drop off in front of our accommodation Small hike around the craters Visit of a cave Tasting of local products
Amazing trip and great guide! Absolutely worth the money and there’s nothing to complain about! Made my day
