The tour of Mt Etna and surrounds was a great day. Paolo was a funny, informative and interesting guide and he managed to bond our diverse group so that everyone had a good time. The places we visited were interesting and we were given free time on Etna itself but with a useful tip for the easiest ascent if we... More

Andrea picked us up exactly on time and gave us far more than we expected, including key concepts and history of not only the spectacular volcano but the culture of the island and other fascinating info. Best of all, he was a great guy, very friendly and humorous. Highly recommend this tour, and especially with him. Also, he speaks virtually... More

I was left abandoned by another tour company the evening before an etna tour, and was desperate to find another one at 19h. thanks to a very efficient Vagabonda on the trip advisor forum I discovered the Etna sicily touring association, and within the hour I had a day trip organised for 8.30am the next day. Etna Sicily Touring go... More

We spent a great day with Paolo driving around Catania and Etna hills. Everything was just above expectations. Well done. Paolo organised the best lunch I had in Italy. Great restaurant, staff trying to impress us, best pasta I ever had -) I wish we had more tours like this. Cheers

We are a group of 6 on a cruise. We had a great full day tour- fish & produce market, four wheel driving experience, cave exploration and of course Mt. Etna. This was topped off by a wonderful Sicilian lunch and his lovely wife joined us. A wonderful day of unusual, off the beaten track experiences..

My wife and I were part of a group of six that went on a day tour with Etna Sicily Touring off our cruise ship. After seeing the people from the ship piling into busses to ride up Mt. Etna we were very happy to have booked this four-wheel drive tour. Our guide was very knowledgable and loved sharing information... More

We are group of 5 from cruise ship. we had a full day tour with Paolo and he brought us to Taormina & Castelmola first since it was raining very hard. Then he went to show us the Alcantara and it was beautiful even though it was pouring. Finally we went to Mt.Etna and despite the cold, heavy rain and... More

Because I wanted a tour specifically highlighting the geology of Mt. Etna, after some discussion, we decided the best option for me was a private 8-hour tour dedicated to only the geological history and features (completely skipping the "views").  Of course it was more expensive excursion, but it was a life-time experience for someone with a geology minor, so that...

Our group of 4 adults had very personal reasons for visiting Sicily, or more specifically Mount Etna, last month. For my sister and I it was a special pilgrimage to thank the people of Maletto who rescued and helped my father and his crew who crashed into the mountain back in 1943. For this reason we didn't want to travel... More

Paolo, the tour leader, is doing a wonderful job! Top informed and very nice! Visit the places at Aetna where you won't encounter dozens of mass-tourism buses...
