Must do experience - Must do experience. Lori was our guide and we had a fantastic time. We opted for the cable car and off road experience and it was phenomenal. There is a good bit of walking/hiking and our shoes were pretty dirty afterwards. Definitely rent the jacket for $5 if you don’t bring one.

Such a good way to see Mount Etna and Taormina if you’re on a tight schedule but want to see it all - Really great experience it was a good amount of time exploring Taormina which was beautiful and good start to the day going in the morning to beat the crowds. At Mount Etna we did the cable car and bus route which was incredible, would recommend hiring a jacket for the day as it was cheap and it does get freezing at the top. The tasting was a pleasant experience too and good end to the day

Allessandro, "Magnficant Guide" to Mt. Etna/Taormina - First, Allessandro our driver and guide was exceptional. He was extremely knowledgeable and continually provided historical elements. He provided answers to all of our questions throughout the day. He shared his photos of Mt. Etna erupting, breath taking. An must excursion for anyone visiting Catania. Request Allessandro as your guide.
