Giuseppe is a very knowledgeable and affable guide. His English is excellent and he is a font of knowledge on the natural history relating to Etna. He is a careful and considerate driver also. If you want to get off the beaten track to see Etna ‘through the back door’, Guiseppe is your man! We would highly recommend him. Apparently he hosts cooking classes at his family home near Siracusa too. Something to return for. :)

Unique daytrip to get up close and personal with a landscape few visitors to Italy or Sicily experience. Etna seems to get bigger the closer you get to it and feels like you've stepped onto another planet. Giuseppe was an excellent guide and provided helpful commentary throughout. Highly recommended.

What an amazing day with Giuseppe! Such a lovely guy, and so knowledgeable about Sicily, and about Etna. The 5km round trek was perfect for us (ages 18, 21, 53!) and we saw so much incredible stuff. We opted for the wine tasting/vineyard lunch afterwards, which was well deserved and delicious. Couldn’t imagine a better way to have spent our final day in Sicily!

We had a very good day with Giuseppe on Mount Etna. The hiking was about 6 km. He shared his huge knowledge with us and was always friendly and took his time to answer our questions.

Giuseppe is really nice! We had a great tour! It was fun and the view is awsome from the top. I recommend this adventure!

Giuseppe was the best travel guide that we have met. One of the few hikes from Syracusa.. he looked after us so well from the moment he picked us up! He is so knowledgable of his craft and the geology and botany that surrounds the experience. Giuseppe is our 10 years new best friend.. and had him totally entertained throughout the day! We loved it! thanks you Giuseppe!!

The Summit walk was inspiring and really good information about history of Mt Etna. Got to see several crater lakes. And completed with a wine, coffee and delicious treats on the mountain.

My daughter and I had organised our trip to Siracusa and decided to book Mt Etna walking tour with Giuseppe. We are very glad we did, Giuseppe had extensive knowledge of the area, history of Mt Etna and even great restaurant recommendations near to where we stayed. His enthusiasm and passion for what he does really shone through. The hike on Mt Etna was challenging enough and the views very much worth it! Would highly recommend booking!

We had a great day out with Giuseppe and learnt a lot about the Etna and Sicily. He took us to a spot about 2100m above sea. Great tour of about 2.5 hours off the beaten tracks, with fantastic views. It's well below the summit, you don't get to the main craters on top, but you get a very good idea of the volcanic activity and we did not want to use the super-expensive cable cars and do the obvious touristic thing. Better trust this local guide! Besides, it was very windy and pretty chilly in mid-October on our height of Etna already - a difference of about 15 to 20 degrees to warm Siracusa! I can barely imagine how it would have been on top... I should also mention that Giuseppe is a good driver - we felt comfortable with him all day. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful hike with Guiseppe. He picked the two of us up at our hotel in Siracusa and drove us to the mountain. We had a great hike - off the main path. He was very knowledgeable and a total pleasure. Highly recommend for a great day.
