Top Sicily Day Trips

Gianluca and his crew were so wonderful! Our day started out a bit rainy but they lifted our mood and brought so much knowledge and good vibes. We had a so much fun and got such a wonderful view of Taormina. The cold plunge into the sea was the cherry on top. Grazie Mille!!!

Our guide, Salvatore, made our day super special. He’s really interested in his work and is so knowledgeable, patient and friendly. He told us where we were going throughout the day and made sure we were safe. Nothing was too much trouble and we had plenty of time at each stop. Salvatore explained when Etna was formed, showed us old lava flows, took us into a lava tube and walked us up onto crater ridges. After a generous lunch at a local restaurant, we moved onto the incredible Alcantara Gorge. Fabulous rock formations and great end to the trip. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful places, great atmosphere, everything was perfectly timed, small group (just 4 of us!) and zero stress - never rushed, never boring. Huge thanks to our guide Salvatore, who was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the day flow effortlessly. Ortigia was charming, Noto was stunning, and the whole experience felt easy and enjoyable. Highly recommended!

A relaxed tour that gave a good experience of Mt Etna. You don't go up the cable car or near to the peak, but you end up seeing and walking around the lower craters. Unfortunately, we missed out on the sunset due to bad luck with the weather in mid October. Though you can change the date with some notice if your vacation schedule is flexible, which ours was not; so check the weather! However we still enjoyed the crater with fog rolling in and out, completely clear to silent hill in seconds, it really added to the surreal scene of the lava rocks. Beforehand we had gone to a honey producer where we tried local produce including different types of honey and snacks. We also went down into a small lava cave which had formed from previous lava flows. Despite the weather, Angelo kept us in good spirits and was very informative of the history of the region and of the volcano. I was also very impressed at how he was able to easily accommodate the split language group of French and English (and let me practice my Italian).

We thoroughly enjoyed our day at Mt Etna and the Alcantara Gorge with our guide, Sario. The first part of the day was focused on exploring the volcano followed by a fantastic lunch at a Mt Etna winery. We then explored the Alcantara Gorge in the afternoon - it was a great way to spend the day enjoying nature, would definitely recommend!

This tour was probably the best tour we have ever taken! Organized and breathtaking! We were on a small speed boat (no more than 12 people) and our guide Vito was the best! He truly loves what he does and it shows! The places he took us too to swim were the best we have ever seen. Thank you Vito for an unforgettable experience we will be back!

Took a boat ride along the coast to Isola Bella. The guide was amazing and super friendly and helpful. We spent an hour snorkeling in the beautiful green/blue waters that had a ton of fish and rocks to look at. Also had a few caves to explore. Definitely best snorkeling trip we have done!

Easily walkable from the centre of Taormina. Popular arias from well know operas with a tenor and soprano accompanied by a pianist. Charming little theatre with drinks and snacks provided in the interval. Starts at 9:15 pm and lasts for a couple of hours. Thoroughly enjoyable.
