MARCO IS FANTASTIC! GREAT DAY❤️ - We were fortunate enough to have nobody else join us in the day for the tour so benefitted from a private tour around Etna & Taormina. Marco (the tour guide) was so knowledgeable of his city and the area, very easy to talk to and friendly I feel I have made a friend in him and will continue to keep in touch for many years. Thanks guys would recommend Scott & Chloe Vickers

Excellent - Amazing amazing experience. Tour guide (Marco) was patient, down to earth and spoke great English (hard to find around here). Took his time to explain every part of tour and allowed me the chance to explore when I could. Highly recommend!
