What are people saying about Sicily

Jane_M, Oct 2026

The scenery on the ride...

The scenery on the ride to both of these towns was amazing,, BUT--this tour is not for the faint of heart.. Our group consisted of 70 and 80 year olds, and we found walking up the hills, quite difficult.. A lot of walking just from the parking lot to the towns and then uphill both ways..

The ultimate Mount Etna tour-highly recommended!

We booked this tour to Mount Etna and this was spectacular from start to finish!

Gianni and the other guide brought us into a stunning volcanic lava cave where they explained about the cave history and legends of the region! Very interesting and fascinating! They are very knowledgeable and wonderful tour guides! The tour ended with a visit to the Gambino winery where we tested the Gambino wines all then with a great quality and good taste!

Don’t miss this experience !

An absolute highlight—Alex is the best guide! Our Mt. Etna hiking experience far exceeded all of our expectations, and that is entirely thanks to our fantastic guide, Alex! He truly made the whole experience for us. His knowledge and passion for the volcano were completely contagious, and we learned so much throughout the hike. To top it all off, the wine tasting at the end was incredibly fun and absolutely delicious. If you are planning a trip to Etna, do yourself a favor and book this—hopefully with Alex!

Great way to see the city and enjoy some tasty bites along the way!

Carlo did a fantastic job taking us around the city and showing us a variety of local tasty bites. We left full! It was a fun and casual day and Carlo made it so much fun. I recommend this especially if you only have a short time in Palermo. We still had time to walk around afterwards, but we felt like we had a better understanding of city and its culture.

Taormina: Sicilian Street Food & Wine Tour by Do Eat Better

Christine_B, Oct 2026

Lovely walk with food and history

Our guide, Alessandro was knowledgable, personable and interesting. We were able to try local dishes in spite of the torrential downpour - luckily, our group had good humor about the rain! Also, our group was as curious about history and food as we were, which made for a lovely evening. I would have liked there to be a small meat or fish dish (we had arancini, antipasto with wine tasting, focaccia with toppings and a cannoli), but that is my only suggestion. Do pin on your map the arancini restaurant! We tried to find it again down the many side streets but could not (we did easily find the other restaurants)

Simon_T, Oct 2026

Amazing tour of Etna

An excellent experience with Alessandro. He was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about volcanos and Mount Etna and the local region. Tour started with delicious wine at a family vineyard on the slopes after a walk through the vines and the opportunity to see the locals at work picking and sorting the grapes. The tour up Mount Etna was really informative taking in historic lava flows, tunnels and breathtaking views, ending with a lovely lunch at a chalet restaurant near to the cable car to the volcano summit.

Beaches, Blue Water, and Boat Rides

This was the first boat tour i did with multiple groups. Enjoyed getting to meet new people, and the staff was great. From the knowledge of the area, the snacks and drinks, to the time out in the water. Only thing i missed was the "bring your own towels" disclaimer. Make sure you bring one with you!

Don't Eat Beforehand!!

Extremely informative and well thought out tour!! DO NOT EAT any breakfast before you go to the 9:30 am tour!! Made that mistake! Our tour guide, Simona, provided insight into why foods are prepared the way they are and the origins of how they came to be! Very enjoyable and filling tour!!

Etna Countryside Food & Wine Lovers Tour (Small Group or Private)

Tunde_N, Sept 2026

Perfect small-group Sicily experience for wine&food lovers

This tour was the highlight of our long weekend break on Sicily. Orazio was the perfect guide, telling us a lot of interesting things about the island, the language, the traditions, the connection between the people and the Etna during the drive. At the winery he handed us over to another guide who took us on a short walk along the vines and then into the cellar. Then came the tasting session - 3 lovely wines and incredible small plates to go with them, followed by a short drive to a restaurant where we were treated to more courses and more wines. Everything was delicious, we all had a great time - the perfect gastrotourism experience!
