An excellent tour. The Etna tour was superbly guided by Janet. She is knowledgeable about history and the natural environment and the group size (8 adults in comfortable minibus) ensured that duration of the fascinating walk was comfortable for everyone. The tour of a lava cave was an extra unexpected bonus to am appreciative group. The wine tasting at Murgo was exceptionally hospitable. in other countries, wine farms give you at most a couple of biscuits, if anything. Murgo's tasting platter (ham, salami, mortadella, 3 cheeses, olives, frittata, bread basket, etc) was almost a complete gourmet meal. The 5 wines tasted confirmed that this is one of Sicily's best wineries. Our guide Giuseppe was also a gold mine of information and generous with his advice on the best non-tourist trap gastronomic destinations. Altogether this tour is highly recommended!

We had two tours with the same guide, Giovanni. This one and then the Mount Etna sunset tour. Both were excellent! Giovanni was very attentive and knowledgable about history, geology, biology and current affairs too. The tour operator company is very flexible and reliable with prompt communication. We went on 3 tours with them. All of them were great experiences!

Very reliable and flexible company with prompt communication. We went on 3 tours with them, all of them were great. Giuseppe was a very entertaining and knowledgeable guide. The highlight of the day was Savoca for us, the scenic setting of the Godfather movie. Make sure to try the Lemon Granita at Bar Vitelli.

Amazingly well organised, catered for all our needs given the changing weather conditions. Stunning opportunity to see amazing views and to learn of both the history & the ongoing environmental impact of this region dealing with an active volcano. Well worth the time & money, you won’t be disappointed!

Giovanni was an excellent guide, and the pickup and drop off was great! The visit to the mountain itself made the experience well worth it, and the tasting afterwards was incredible. Overall, a great experience and well worth the money!
