Titianna was a great guide . Very educational experience . True feeling for the Sicilian lifestyle. Foods are natural, and the people make good use of natures bounty. Including lava which is used and repurposed very well from making buildings that stand for lifetimes to ornamental objects.

Great way to start a trip to Catania for first timers. Works well if you arrive early to your hotel without being able to check in.

Our guide was so knowledgeable about the history of Catania and she made it fascinating to listen to! I learned so much about this city the first day I arrived so it was very helpful.

Our tour guide, Esandro, was a gifted professional, with a Geograpy qualification and a sound knowledge of geology, and local history, which made his explanations of this city, where lava has played such a significant part, so interesting.

Excellent tour, very entertaining and educational. I found the pace good, not too rushed or too slow and a good balance.

The walking tour was wonderful. The guide had been a college professor. His knowledge of the area, customs, and historical significance was outstanding.

Excellent informative tour by a very engaging and charming guide. She explained in detail the Feast of St. Agatha , which just happened to be taking place during our visit

Our driver/guide was terrific. Very knowledgeable and informative, a safe driver. The sights on Mt. Etna were awesome- not to be missed. Be sure to dress warmly as it gets very cold and windy up there.
