Etna and Taormina Tour – 8 april 2019 – TripAdvisor reviews
We had a great day with Antonio, even though the weather forecast was rain and fog. He was nice enough to pick us up closer to where we were staying rather than in Catania, and drove us carefully around the winding streets so we didn’t get sick. He is very knowledgeable about the region, its history, botany, geology and weather. He timed our tour well so that we were on Mt Etna at the right time to catch an opening in the clouds and fog. Very friendly, we enjoyed Antonio’s company and hope to see him again!
Excellent sunset tour – 28 march 2019 – Tripadvisor Review
Had a great tour, plenty to do – food tasting, lava caves and a short hike at ~2000m – and moved at a nice pace. Watching the sunset from Etna was spectacular. Our guide (Ludovico) really knew his stuff and kept things interesting. Highly recommended!
Great tour to Etna 3000 and walk around high craters. Ideal to known the south face of the volcano. The guide Ludovico is a friendly and great expert in geology, geography and historic of this beautiful place.

We booked a half-day Etna tour and had a really fantastic experience! Our guide Florinda was excellent – very fun and knowledgable. We learned so many interesting things about the landscape and the region. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone!
We had the 1/2 day Etna tour and it was perfect! The guide appeared on time, he had a lot of information about Etna and the tour includes really nice places around the volkano.
We took a half day morning tour with the lovely Florinda from Excursions Etna. Extremely well organised, and perfectly timed to avoid the large groups arriving by coach. We were blessed with clear blue skies, and fantastic views. And what Florinda doesn’t know about Etna, isn’t worth knowing.
We were staying in Palermo, so we got the train down to Catania and picked up the tour from there. The train was cheap, easy and on time (a refreshing change if you’re from the UK!). This is a must see for your trip to Sicily.

We booked a half-a-day-tour to the Etna in September and it left us speechless!
Luigi, our tourguide, was incredibly informative, very friendly and funny and made sure that it was a day to remember.
We felt well taken care of and I would definitely recommend it!

We booked a half-a-day-tour to the Etna, which was amazing! Our guide Luigi was the best. He was super friendly, funny and answered even the stupidest questions: We had fun, learned a lot and had amazing views. On our way down we could even witness an explosion at the top. I would definitely recommend it!
Picked up at 7:30 am and headed up to Etna. What at first seemed very early for an average lazy tourist, it turned out to be a great trick as we were the first there and were able to enjoy the scenery in piece and quiet. On the way down we ran into numerous tourist buses piling up, so definitely to go up before everybody else.
All together we were a small group of 4, guided by Lucia who was super great. Always cheerful and with vast knowledge of vulcanoes and Etna’s nature.
All together it was a fantastic half day excursion I would recommend to anyone. Just be careful: when you get to Catania it seems like everybody with a car is also offering excursions to Etna, but obviously the quality of service may be questionable and eve though these agencies (or ‘agencies’) will most likely have Etna in their name, it is not the same company. However, the real Etna Excursions are very fast at answering to all inquiries, so it shouldn’t be a problem to book with the right people.

We did a morning/half-day Etna tour and our host was very informative and answered all our questions, alongside providing us with an amazing experience seeing the mountain and visiting interesting Geological aspects of Mount Etna.
We were on a cruise and therefore had limited time at port in Catania however Etna Tours accommodated us and assisted by arranging pick-up and drop-off at the Port entrance.
Highly recommend booking with this company if you want to see and experience all Mount Etna has to offer.
