Etna volcano area and wine day trip - The tour was very well planned to make sure we had a relaxing experience. Massimo, our tour guide, was really good with explaining everything to us in English. The winery tour and accompanying meal were excellent. Overall the tour was beyond our expectations. The next time we visit Sicily, we will definitely reach out to them again for a guided experience or a tailored multi-day program tailored to our interests.

Excellent tour of Mt Etna and Vineyard - We had an excellent, private tour with Massimo. He was a safe, courteous guide and driver. Massimo was knowledgeable and pointed out fun facts throughout the entire experience. At the vineyard, we had a private tour and tasting. Our original day had to be rescheduled due to weather - so thankful we were able to work it out. It was a great experience!

Great! - Lovely tour, a great combo for visiting Mt. Etna and having a wine experience. We walked to the bottom of an ancient crater and had loads of info. The winery was just great and the food too.

Great experience - Perfect experience. Great communication since the booking. Very professional and communicative. They sent us a pdf with all the details of the tour, great! The tour was planned the day before but it was perfect. They sent us the details of the driver and the plate number of the car. The transport was enjoyable and the visit to the winery was just amazing. Very knowledgeable, learn lots of things. Then we tasted the wines and the lunch was awesome with traditional food (we opted for the lunch). We spent a great time, I think almost 3 hours in total. Then we moved by car because we had to go to the volcano. Unfortunate the weather was very bad up there so we couldn’t walk that long but had the chance to visit the shops and take our time. Never pushed to be in a hurry. Much appreciated.

Amazing activity! - Amazing activity for a day! Stunning organization and trasportation. The Winery was so charming and we tasted 4 wines after walking in the vineayrd and also helped some farmers with the scissors :-) I loved the fact that after that we went up to Etna and walked on the board and inside an ancient crater.

Very interesting but value challenged - Mossimo did a good job of explaining the volcano and the rocks spewed from it. The lunch and wine tasting were an excellent time. Great little family winery where we bought bottles of wine, filled directly from the aging barrels, for 3 euros each. However the $600 for 3 of us was a bit too much. We could have easily driven to the south station of the volcano and walked around for the hour or so we were there. The lunch/wine tasting was $40 according to the winery owner. Again Mossimo was very informative and the lunch/ wine tasting was lovely. However, I would consider driving and making the winery reservation myself for that cost.

Do not book! - Do not book with this company, they increased the agreed upon price and she. I cancelled within the allowable window they refused to refund my money. Don’t get ripped off like me (out $420!) It’s a scam!
