Amazing day on Mount Aetna with Massimo - As we all know, there are many options to choose from while making plans abroad, but this site is so honest with their review system. We were hesitant to go because Etna had erupted a few days earlier, leaving us a bit scared… the operator and Massimo our driver assured us that they wouldn’t do anything to put us in harms way, and that was the absolute truth. From the moment Massimo picked us up in, is very clean car right on time the service was impeccable through the entire day. Massimo said there was no request too big. He was spot on service impeccable, the trip to the top of the volcano was Seamless… the lift up the mountain was clean and efficient. We were able to rent a winter coat and you need leggings and closed toed shoes preferably dark shoes because the dust is on your shoes for sure… Bring a hat definitely leggings or jeans not shorts once up at the top. The walk around the craters was phenomenal picture taking incredible. The people mover vehicle that took us to the top again super clean great operation. And then to the winery 2 Bros. owned and took care of us like we were family. The wife cooked us an authentic Sicilian lunch with Panini, fresh cheese, olives, eggplant, pasta, almond cookies, four kinds of wine and way too much food. The wine tasting was bottomless. Massimo made sure he stayed with us the whole time and felt like there was never a time where we were in need of anything. Don’t hesitate to take this trip. You will not be disappointed.! Thank you to Massimo . Scott and Donna Florida

Fun day of sightseeing and wine tasting all in one day - Massimo made our day extra special. Not only did he provide excellent information about Mount Etna and provide great conversation but he also went out of his way to help us find Sicilian Limoncello and a snacks for later. He is highly recommended. Great day of sightseeing at Mount Etna and wine tasting at a beautiful winery all rolled into one with options to buy goodies and souvenirs.

Recommend 100% - Our tour was expertly planned and guided. Corrado, our guide, knew everything about Mt Etna! He explained the science, the history, the geography. We rode the cable car and hiked. He then took us caving which was absolutely amazing. Our final stop at a family winery was spectacular. We tasted limited edition wines and had a farm to table meal. Recommend 100%

Wonderful private tour experience with Corrado - My husband and I had an amazing experience with our private tour guide, Corrado. Corrado was extremely kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating. It was a full day experience, he picked us up from our hotel and drove us in his car all day. We got to skip all the lines during the Mount Etna tour. The views were amazing! Corrado even had jackets and hats for us because it got very cold up in Mt Etna. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes, however they did have a shoe rental. We visited a beekeeping farm store for a honey and olive oil tasting - we bought some goods to bring back home with us. We finished the day with a wine tour and tasting and lunch which was lovely. I highly recommend this tour with Corrado - his service was amazing.

The best way to see Etna and experience Sicily - Alessandro was so much more than what we expected! His sharing of details about Sicily, Etna, the history of the areas we were touring and the knowledge about the results and benefits of the land being formed by volcanic activity was so very interesting! And the place he chose for our wine tasting and wonderful chance to dine in true Sicilian food was the perfect experience! I would recommend this trip to anyone!

Discover Etna and a wonderful wine tasting - Excellent adventure to see Etna and enjoy a local winery with local dishes as well as taste a huge variety of honey. Our guide Alessandro was such a joy! We learned so much about the local towns at the foothills of Etna and drove through some beautiful countryside. Alessandro took us to a winery owned by two brothers where we tasted some wonderful wines and had our first taste of almond wine( very tasty). We also were treated to some local Sicilian dishes where the majority of the ingredients were grown there and we have never tasted anything so good.

Lovely day at Mt Etna! - We met Alesandro at pickup arranged through Prestelli for a day at Mt Etna and a wine tasting. What an experience. He really knew the area and showed us such beautiful micro climates during the trip. Walk was wonderful as were the tastings both at base of our walk and afterwards at a small winery where we both tasted wine and enjoyed a lovely lunch. The winery guide then took us for a short walk of the vineyard and olive growth. Quite the adventure!!
