Organized and informative - Luca the tour guide was very organized and informative about Etna and the region. We had no wait getting on the Cable Car. Everything was timely. Plenty of time to do gift shops. He is clearly passionate, taking lava stones from Etna to give to his son.

Amazing Adventure! - We happened to tour the morning of June 2 when the first eruption had just started. Fabio was so enthusiastic and shared loads of interesting facts and pictures of past eruptions- everyone was excited to be there! We were unable to reach 2900m and had to travel via 4x4 vans instead of cable car but it did not take away from the experience at all. The bus overheated 2x on our climb out of the city up to the park but our driver Carmello was quick with the water to cool it down and get us back on our way. I would definitely recommend a TUI tour to anyone, they do an excellent job. Thanks Fabio for a fun-filled, memorable experience!

An amazing guide made up for the rare bad-weather day - Unfortunately we had rain and fog for most of our day, but our guide, Fabio, had so much amazing information to share that the tour was still WELL worth it. He gave the whole tour in English and German, switching back and forth seamlessly. It was a wonder to watch. Fabio was so friendly, answered all sorts of questions, and gave us advice about the rest of our stay in Sicily.
