Marco 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!I had a fantastic tour to Mt.

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.
