5.00Marco was a friendly and fun companion throughout the day and very informative. He has an in depth knowledge of Etna and Sicily in gender. And also about the behaviour of bees which made the honey and wine tasting even more fascinating. He also went the extra mile sending directions to my phone for other towns we wanted to see - perfect viewpoints and places to park etc. Thank you Marco!
Highly recommended: Mt. Etna with Marco

5.00I had a fantastic tour to Mt. Etna today with Marco including stops for coffee, lunch and tastings (honey, olive oil and wine). He is the best guide I ever had. I learned much about the Sicilian cuisine, culture, history and habits. Don't miss that experience during your stay and thanks a lot for a wonderful day.

5.00We booked on invidual tour with Marco. He took us to the Etna and a couple of others craters within the area. My ten years old received a lot information and enjoyed the entire trip very much. We can only recommend booking a trip with Marco the trip was its money worth.
