Everything was fantastic.... - Everything was fantastic. Etna tour was great and lunch at Enoteca was perfect. Our guide did a fantastic job. Finished with so.e downtown Gelato.

Simone is the best tour guide in all of Catania - I really have to give all the credit to Simone, he was so passionate about the region, super knowledgeable and overall worked really hard to help us understand the history and culture of Etna and the surrounding areas. He’s extremely thoughtful and personable - you all should give him a raise because he made the trip special and helped turn a group of strangers into friends by the end of the day

Very beautiful she excursion on Etna! - Our guide was passionate and very available to answer our questions. We are very satisfied with the experience.

Great experience with Eduardo! - Eduardo was a really great guide. He’s interested and interesting and very kind. He took us in front of our hotel and started explaining a lot of things about Etna. I strongly recommend!

A great trip - A fantastic trip and well worth the price. The cable car to Mount Etna was amazing . The host was very friendly and informative

Very interesting hike! - Very interesting excursion. The landscape is so unusual and it is amazing how soon plants start to colonize the lava. The weather was sunny and we saw a few of the craters. We also enjoyed the tasting session afterwards and bought a few oils and pistachio products

Mt Etna ❤️ - Our guide Carmelo was so informative. He took great care of me and my 2 friends. I would definitely recommend him as a guide and would love to go back again!

A little disappointed - It was very expensive for what they really do; they just pick you up and leave you there. The guide/driver did a good job; it tells you a lot of things and facts during the trip and explains all you need to do if you want to explore more by yourself. If you want to really experience the Etna, you need to pay a lot for the rest. Also, they include a visit to a place just in time for lunch, so you don't have a choice and just buy your food there. Also, they offer all their local products here, so it could be convenient, but don't let you explore other options; I will call this a classic tourist trap. This could be fine if the price would've been cheaper.

Too Much Time Spent Picking People Up - We had to get picked up first and dropped off last and that used A LOT of our limited time. The tour and tasting was great because the guide did really well. Florence was informative and super friendly. She was personable and made the trip worthwhile. We learned a lot of stuff from her. She drove really well, too. People should have to meet at a central location. I would not recommend this tour because it took so much extra time (3 hours) driving through traffic to pick up people.

False advertising. Read what is actually included - So, although it’s worth going to mt Etna and our guide was very polite and knowledgeable, the description of the tour is misleading. Here is the what you actually get with the 45$: You get picked up from Catania or Taormina and driven to a parking lot with cafes at a certain altitude of the mountain, not where you would really want to stay. Just hundreds of tourists and cafes etc. The only other thing the tour includes is stopping at one of those tourist trap cafes/souvenir shop where you are offered samples of olive oil, marmalade, honey and liquors but it honestly has a very touristy feel to it and it’s obviously not a farm as advertised. Also the tour includes stopping at a cave where you can walk in for maybe 15-20 minutes where the lava had passed a few years back and then driven home. So, with the tour you are basically driven up to the parking lot and told that if you want to actually see the craters, you have to pay 78€! extra for cablecar and bus to take you up. At this point I’m guessing everyone just says what we said: since we’re up here, we might as well. But this is false advertising I regret to say and I just felt like a dumb tourist the whole way through. Etna is beautiful though!!!
