Despite the variety of tours they offer we only did Etna/Taormina as we had no other days available. Appointment in front of the agency and we are greeted by our guide Costanza, very prepared and nice, during the van route told anecdotes and stories of everything we saw. Arrived on Mount Etna (the visit is at an altitude of about 2000 meters) we continue with the walk along old craters where on each of them told us history and geological characteristics of each.
At the end, during the descent to Taormina, we stopped at a company that produces local products (wines, oil, jams, honey) where a tasting of these products was offered. Continuing we arrived in Taormina, independent tour without guide for the duration of 2 hours, enough to eat something and walk around the country. After that, return to Catania. It was a wonderful experience, and it is the safest way to visit Etna and not alone with its dangers.
