Fantasic Tour
WE had an absolutely wonderful day in Sicily with our fantastic guides, Alessandro and Hahan. They were both so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, and really made the whole experience special. We visited Taormina and Castelmola, enjoyed the beautiful scenery and then had an amazing boat trip along the coast. The highlight was relaxing on the boat, enjoying the stunning views and sharing champagne together — such a lovely and memorable experience! 🥂⛵️ Alessandro and Hahan made us feel very welcome and looked after us throughout the day. Everything was organised so well, and their enthusiasm and local knowledge added so much to the tour. A truly beautiful day and one of the highlights of our trip. We would highly recommend this tour, especially with Alessandro and Hahan as guides! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ JANELLE NICCI AND SARA

An unforgettable Etna experience with an exceptional guide!
The Lady Etna tour was a fantastic way to experience both the natural beauty and history of Mount Etna, combined with a wonderful visit to the local Gambino Winery.Alex was one of the best guides we’ve ever come across. His passion, enthusiasm, and knowledge of Etna really brought the experience to life, and he made the tour both informative and engaging.The food and wine tasting at Gambino Winery was another highlight — fantastic local food, excellent wines, and a lovely atmosphere. The small-group format made the experience feel personal and relaxed.Everything was extremely well organised, including a punctual pick-up and plenty of interesting information throughout the day.Highly recommended — a perfect combination of Etna, history, food, wine, and an outstanding guide!

Outstanding Travel Experience
Carmelo was such an excellent guide! I was worried about getting enough time on Mt. Etna and feeling too rushed going from the cruise port but Carmelo made EVERY moment count. The entire drive he was educating us on Mt. Etna, the science of volcanos, the history of Sicily, the region, Messina, and sooo many more things! He took us to so many other cool stops for food and the gorges, just truly an amazing experience! Alex was also and amazing driver, cannot recommend this excursion enough!

AMAZING & EXCELLENT Experience!
Alessandro and our tour guide Marissa were absolutely fantastic! They took great care of us. Brought us to amazing picture worthy spots. Explain the history along with local info of all the spots they were taking us to. We especially had fun eating at the restaurant with amazing Greek food! Not to mention the bar where Alessandro had a plate two drinks and some souvenirs because it was our 30th wedding anniversary. If you want a really amazing tour that is private and personal…. Plus you’re treated like a VIP …You will not be disappointed!

Adventurous day on Mt Etna!

Adventurous day on Mt Etna!
We had an absolutely wonderful day with our guide Hana and driver Andrea. After a quick pick up from the cruise port we headed to our first stop - Mt Etna. Our visit coincided with the start of the activity there so we weren’t sure what we would be able to do.After visiting the cones at the bottom, we were able to take the cable car to nearly the top - around 2500m. During our visit we experienced sun, rain, fog and more sun. It was an incredible visit. From there we headed to Taormina and the Greek Theatre. This was a breathtaking sight.Rather than a sit down lunch we opted for street food - which was delicious.Throughout our guide was knowledgeable and informative and our driver knew all the spots to stop for great photos.Highly recommend!!

Marco was fantastic! He tailored the tour and we managed to do the cable car/jeep on Mt.Etna, visited a winery and had a great lunch there, and visited Taormina. He was informative, funny, thoughtful, and fully committed to make our day the best day possible. We highly recommend this company and Marco as the tour guide!

Perfect for our group trip
If you are traveling with pals, book this instead of taking public transportation. The experience was exceptional from beginning to end. The staff was punctual, the vehicle was a high-end, and the driving was extremely safe. The visit lasted about 7 plus hours and included stops at all of the major attractions, including the Duomo and the Ponte Vecchio. The atmosphere was light and enjoyable, and it was a relief not to have to deal with admission fee lines or navigation.

A Hidden Gem in Sicily - Cantine Bonfiglio

A Hidden Gem in Sicily - Cantine Bonfiglio
Visiting this family-run winery nestled on a sun-kissed hill in Sicily was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth that made the experience feel deeply personal.What truly set this visit apart was hearing the family's rich history of winemaking - passed down through generations with pride and passion. Each wine we tasted had its own story, and learning the meaning behind the names added a beautiful layer of every sip.We were given a rare opportunity to see the entire winemaking process up close, from vine to bottle. The attention to detail was inspiring. The tasting itself was a delight: a selection of wines paired perfectly with local cheeses, fruits and nuts that elevated the flavors and made the experience unforgettable.This wasn’t just a winery visit - it was a journey into tradition, storytelling, and Sicilian soul. Highly recommended for anyone seeking authenticity, beauty, and a true taste of Sicily.
