“fantastic and knowledgeable guide, such an interesting visit to Etna. The lunch in the vineyard was outstanding and really added to the experience. a longer time in Taormina would have been appreciated. recommend buying a skip the line ticket for the amphitheatre. it would have been good to have water supplied from a chill box in the vehicle. we quickly drank our supplies and felt very thirsty returning to the vehicle after walking at Etna”

“It was one of the best experience EVER. We found out so many interesting things and we were speechless when we arrived at the final destination. The driver Orazio, it’s a 10+ driver, person and guide. He explained absolutely everything since he took us from the hotel. He was so polite and he had answers for every question we had. It’s different when you hear what happened in the past and all the historical stories, from a local person. We also tasted the local honey, chocolate, liquor, thanks to Orazio. He gave me and my little brother, the best ‘Etna Visit’ ever. He even showed us one of the Palaces…”
