Rex - Well organized tour everything works like promised . Tickets were waiting for us with explanations were to meet and name of our guide

“ A Must Do Trip “ - The exploration of the beautiful city of Catania -the drive from the port to that city is scenic and Loredana our guide was very informative . Similaly the drive up Mt Etna - amazing and such a difference from Catania. To have both experiences in 1 day was life changing. It may have been a long day but to don2 countries an a volcano all in that period was a unique travel experience . Loredana was essential to this experience. She was knowledgeable engaging informative and very attentive to each of your member. Her ability to keep us interested and together whilst walking through the bustling city of Catania - showed her experience and professionalism. Tour members responded accordingly and ensued we were back on the bus in time. Noting the distance we had to cover we complied on doing so Loredana thanked us several times for that compliance. Gian - Franco the driver also needs to be mentioned. Whilst there was an accident on the return trip to the port and a traffic delay of 45 minutes Gian Franco managed to return us on time to catch the ferry. He also navigated the bus around hairpin bends up the mountain to Mt Etna. Notwithstanding going on several tours around the world - this one remains memorable your 2 tour guides Loredana and Gian Franco made this possible. Thank you.

A really nice day out - A really enjoyable excursion. There was plenty of time in Catania and also on Etna. This trip was really good for having a taste of Italy. It was a long day as we left the hotel at 05:45 and returned at 00:30 but I definitely recommend this if staying on Malta.

Mt. Etna was on fire! - Wasn't sure about it in the first place because it was more than a full day experience but believe me, it worth it 100%! You gave plenty of time in Catania and Mt Etna as well so you have the chance to walk around, experiment in the city etc and also to go up to the Mt. Etna with the lift (lifetime experience for me). If you would like to see Catania and Mt. Etna please do this trip!🫶🏻 Our bus driver and tour guy was both 10-star review!! Do it, do it, do it!!

From Malta to Sicily - It is an early departure, but you can spend time on board. The food in Catania is delicious, and the sweets are also volatile. It was a bit cold at the end of the ropeway on Mount Etna, but it was a pleasant experience in the refreshing air.

Better explanation, better trip - Bus driver and bus: 5 stars. Tour guide: 5 stars. Ferry: 5 stars. Mt Etna: 5 stars. Catania: 5 stars. Food in both locations: 5 stars. VIATOR: 3 STARS! Please state in your tour description that customers will need to pay an extra 52€ per person to get near the top of Mt Etna and that they won’t have time to get a guide to go to the ACTIVE volcano crater on top. That said, the 7 DORMANT craters you can see after paying a 5€ per person fee is still pretty impressive. Also, the trip goes to Mt Etna first, THEN Catania. This makes sense considering the timing, but also should be explained in the trip description(it’s the opposite presently). A clearer explanation will prevent disappointment and confusion for some of your customers.

Trip was as described in... - Trip was as described in terms of time. It's a long day though. My one complaint was the van - the seats were uncomfortable. If you’re over 5’5””, it’s going to be a long day!

Long trip made longer by unacceptable rules - This is a long day with short outside experiences. The stop in Catania was nice however only 2.5 hours long so difficult to do anything other than have lunch and a short wander. Mt Etna was what it said. A good one to tick off the list. Restaurants are quite fairly priced but souvenirs are pricey. 3 hours 20 mins was a long time here unless you're hiking. The description of the trip on Viator is very vague with no real itinerary given. Lastly be mindful that although the bus is luxury, there is no WiFi, no phone charging and you are bombarded all the time with reminders to use the toilets at restaurants not on the coach. This seemed to be the main concern of the guide as well as congratulating us all for ' being professional tourists' for being on time. This and the fact we were told there is no eating or drinking on the bus was pretty unacceptable for a tour of this length and cost.

So-so - First or all, the catamaran is amazingly clean, orderly and on time. But...the food is expensive and tasteless and there is absolutely noone to keep order on the ship. Kids screaming, running around, parents after them, teenagers screaming, cheering, simply an awful experience. The guide is ok. Have seen many better ones. She does say many basic/general things about the places you will visit, but what I minded was that she doesn't take you from place to place explaining you the things you see, bacground, history, she just shows you the main squares and lets you rome around alone. You have aprox 2h on every location, which is not enough to see things and eat relaxed. You have to rush with everything. The bus was perfect though. Air-conditioning working,comfy and clean. Catania is worth visiting, historical and beautiful. The Etna visit was disappointing. Short, we didn't get enough time to climb to the top. The cable cars quite flimsy. Had no explanation from the tourguide, had to eavesdrop to another guide who actually went with the people he was guiding to learn smth about the site. But seeing it was amazing. Would definitely go, but with another agency.

Waste of a day - Catania was dirty and rushed train was told was well worth doing all we seen was a tour of graffiti!!! Mt Etna was not enough time to see valcano.
