An unforgettable experience! - We are a small group with both elderly people and young child. The company made a tailered trip for us and the guide Alessandra is not only professional but also very kind! I really learned a lot of from her about the Sicilian culture and the volcano Etna. Thank you!

A great fun trip to Etna - We are a big group of family and friends having a get together and celebrations in Sicily. Five of us decided to take a late afternoon trip up Etna. We were collected from our hotel on time by our driver Fabrizio. He headed out of town where we stopped at a factory shop where we sampled local wines, olive oils and honey with the option to buy products. We headed up to the craters at 2000M where unfortunately it started to drizzle. We had time for a snack in the coffee shop and a browse in the gift shop which was all fairly reasonably priced. Unfortunately the rain and wind got worse and we rushed our walk around the craters. We opted to leave and head back down to Catania. Our driver Fabrizio was very friendly and told us various facts along our journey. We all had a great time and weren’t too disappointed with the unfortunate weather. We were dropped back at our hotel and all agreed it was a memorable trip.

Great Etna experience with great guide - Although the weather conditions were not perfect and he notified us we still wanted to go. Another people cancelled the tour but, so he did the tour only for us (2 people). We really appreciate it. The tour guide Fabrizio was very kind and generous. He told us everything about Etna, asked about us, so we were having a very good time not only talking about Etna but also some small talks. He gave us time to look around on the top, made some stops to take pictures. It was very cool experience. Will come back when there will be better conditions and will not snow, because the wind was crazy up there😅 It was beautiful with the snow, but we couldn’t walk long enough. Thank you Fabrizio!

Great Mt. Etna Guide! - We had a great experience with Fabrizio touring Mt. Etna. Due to high winds, we couldn't really enjoy the Silvestri Craters, but we did experience it and then went to a +a for warm drinks and more history of the volcano and the area. Finally, he brought us to Oro di Etna for a wonderful wine tasting and lunch. Beware, it's not a light lunch as advertised, but he said it is for Sicilians. 😆 I would definitely recommend this tour guide!

Etna 2000 and wine tour - We loved the visit to the Etna, and the wine degustation was amazing! Great food (in fact worth to call a proper lunch) and wine, very friendly multilingual staff. However, the best about our trip was our guide Claudio, a very informed and talkative local who talked not only about Etna and wine but also about Sicilian history and customs.

For the travellers, this is very convient. There was a stop at a farm for some local products tastings, the price wmare reasonable.
