Customer Reviews
I booked a tour Etna+Lunch+Taormina and it was wonderful. The tour was well organized, engaging, and I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to explore Mount Etna up close. What truly impressed me was our guide, Danilo. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion made the entire experience unforgettable. He speaks excellent English and really took great care of all of us throughout the tour. Since half of the group was Italian, Danilo effortlessly switched between English and Italian — an incredible linguistic transition! On top of that, his knowledge, from history to science, is truly remarkable. And he loves Etna so it is a genuine story. Thank you to Danilo and the whole Etna Experience team for such a wonderful day — I will happily recommend you to others!
What a fabulous experience! I joined the sunset tour with Etna Experience and it was absolutely fabulous and definitely one of the highlights of my time in Sicily. The weather was perfect, time on the volcano ample and all-encompassing, sunset absolutely stunning and above all, Andrea was a wonderful guide - passionate, knowledgeable, friendly, professional with a great sense of humour, he really made the whole experience that much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this experience to those looking to explore Mt Etna while in Catania.
I highly recommend the day trip to mount Etna and Taormina with a lunch break! The tour exceeded all my expectations. Our guide was not only incredibly knowledgeable about the region’s history, geology, and culture, but also radiated warmth and enthusiasm, making everyone feel welcome from the start while switching in two languages. The itinerary struck a perfect balance between adventure and relaxation. Exploring Etna’s unique landscape, wandering the charming streets of Taormina, and pausing for breathtaking views at every turn. The lunch in a local vineyard was a true highlight: delicious Sicilian dishes and good wines. Every detail was well organized, and the group atmosphere was very comfortable thanks to the guide’s engaging approach. I learned so much and felt completely immersed in Sicilian life for the day. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the best of Sicily in a friendly, authentic, and unforgettable way.
