Tom, the guide, is excellent!

Five stars because Tom, our guide, was brilliant. From pick up to drop off he took great care of all the guests, spoke 3 languages, was so passionate about the region and so knowledgeable. The 7 hours flew by and we had a great time.

One of the best Tours ever !

One of the best tours we have done on holidays and we have done a lot Worldwide. The tour was made very personal and enjoyable by the brilliant guide Simone. He has a wealth of knowledge on any subject about Sicily and a fantastic ambassador for the Island !!! Thoroughly enjoyable day and highly recommend !!

Once in a lifetime experience on volcano

Experience was amazing and memorable. Extra fees amount was little surprising, because it was bigger than the actual fee in the beginning. Length of visit was enough and propriate. Atmosphere in our own little group (8+guide) was warm and nice. Crowd size in our own little group was good. The group on the top of the Etna was too big. We couldn't hear anything. One of our groupmember fell down and got bruises on her face. After that we wandered why many other groups had helmets but we didn't have. Also the tasting was kind of disappointment, and the staff in the tasting wasn't concentrating us and the situation. She was chatting with her friends. On the other way round our own groupleader and guide Stephano Nicotra was so nice, kind, charming, kind and took good care of us all groupmembers. This experience is best for adventurers.

Mount Etna sunset

My husband and I had a fantastic Mount Etna tour with our guide, Bruna. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the experience both fun and informative. We chose the sunset tour, and the views over the volcanic landscape were breathtaking. Exploring the lava caves added an extra sense of adventure. Bruna’s passion and knowledge brought Mount Etna’s history to life and made us appreciate this incredible natural wonder even more. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Sicily. It was one of the highlights of our trip.

Amazing experience

We had a wonderful experience on our Mount Etna tour, and much of that was thanks to our guide, Simone. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about the history, geology, and culture of the region. The scenery was breathtaking, and Simone ensured we had plenty of opportunities to take in the views and capture memorable photos. He was attentive, patient, and happy to answer questions. After Etna, we made a stop and had a tasting of many different local products, which was also amazing. If you're planning a visit to Mount Etna, we highly recommend this tour. Our guide’s expertise and enthusiasm made our visit truly special and unforgettable. Thank you, Simone, for an amazing experience!

Except for a great guide

Salvo is a great guide who knows a lot about Mount Etna and Sicilian culture, especially because he is from here, and having a local explain it with such passion is very beautiful.

Brilliant trip, would recommend!

Brilliant day doing this tour. Picked up exactly at the time specified in a nice AC’d van, up to etna. Had a great hike up to the craters and the tour guide was so informative and helpful. The tasting was great and good fun, and no pushy sales. Had lunch there and it was fairly cheap. Quick stop off at a cave which was great to see, but not ideal if you’re not steady on your feet ( you could wait at the top though and it’s only 5/10 mins if not your thing). All in all, well worth doing!
