Etnatribe makes up for Viator’s poor customer service and communication.
Our guide Nando from Etnatribe was fabulous despite Viator’s not accurate description of the tour or their communication of where we were meeting. Otherwise, we had a wonderful day with Nando. I tried to book directly with Etnatribe because my experience with Viator as a third-party has never really worked well for me and now I know I will never do it again. Book direct with Etnatribe for this tour and ask for Nando, and you won’t be disappointed.

Excellent value. Excellent guide
Excellent trip. Aided by Salvo the guide who was cheerful, friendly and importantly full of knowledge about the places and happy to answer questions. The small party is much better and the transport was comfortable. If you want a day getting to know thos area you can't get better value for money.

Brilliant guided tour to Noto, Ortiga and Syracuse
We had a days tour with Salvatori who was brilliant! He remembered our names throughout the day (nice personal touch) and brought the places to life and was very knowledgeable and accommodating.
He made the tour fun and we thought he was the most excellent! And perfect guide!
The places were beautiful- we enjoyed this so much!

Great day out
Good day out seeing 3 different areas. Noto was lovely but it has to be a quick trek round if you want to see all the churches. Guide Salvatore pointed out best ones to save some time. Then we headed to Ortiga the old town of Syracuse…. Lovely walk with guide then free time to explore. Finally the archeological site in Syracuse… giant ear was amazing and Greek theatre. Was really too hot to explore any further.

Just fine, not great
The tour guide didn't provide as much information as I wanted - just a few minute of explanation when we arrived at a site and then we had time to explore on our own. I ended up trying to listen in on other tour groups that provided additional information. Our guide also reacted surprisingly negatively to certain questions as if he didn't want his authority questioned, which wasn't what we intended by the questions we just wanted more information. For the price it was definitely a disappointment - I really regret not just figuring out public transit to the locations given that the value of the tour mostly just provided transportation and not guided explanation.

Lovely trip with a very nice guide
Lovely tour with Salvo! Very nice that we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Our group of 8 English speakers were very comfortable in the luxury van. Salvo is very knowledgeable and friendly. It was nice to have a review of each location and them Freedom to explore on our own.
