A really nice day - A truly excellent experience.
We were a group of 8 people, between us a Spanish couple, the other couples all unknown. Our guide was Salvatore (Salvo), extremely helpful and very passionate. The tour starts from Catania and throughout the journey we were explained the nature of the territory and the differences between the city and the Etna area. Salvatore turned out to be a perfect cicero. The Spanish couple were pleasantly amazed at their ability to skilfully switch from an explanation in Italian to one in Spanish and this immediately denoted their professionalism.
What about Etna? A fascinating giant and definitely to know. We met him through the quad bike. We had never tried it. Try it on Mount Etna is to be done.
Keep it up!!!
We really recommend it to everyone

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

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.
