We have been to the craters of Mt Etna and a tasting at Gambino on a prior trip so we were looking for a wine tasting that offered something different. This tour fit the bill perfectly. For Starters, our guide Roberto was great; personable, informative, and a genuinely nice guy. After about an hours ride from Taormina, we stopped off at a really nice old village where Roberto lead us through the village to ancient churches and a fortress, all the time sharing their backgrounds. There are also great views of Etna from there as well. After that we went for 2 wine tastings one of which included a full lunch and both included a tour of the facilities. Not a big fan of Etna wines but we enjoyed the tastings. We know this isn't the highlight Etna and Gambino tour, but with this one you can enjoy a tasting without the crowds that Gambino draws plus walk through a nice small town. Highly recommended.

The first winery was excellent and lunch at the second winery was great. The guide was very informative during our visit to Castiglione di Sicilia.

This was so much more than a winery tour thanks to Tony— our knowledgeable tour guide. As he is native to the area, he was able to share personal anecdotes about living proximal to the volcano; and the unique qualities of the Mountain Etna region due to weather and its’ geologic nature making it conducive environment for wine production. Our visit to historic Castiglione di Sicila was especially meaningful for me as we traced our oldest known ancestor from this town. The views from the castle were stunning. The staff at the wineries were welcoming and knowledgeable and the tastings did not disappoint.My only criticism would be that I thought we would have seen more about the actual production of the wine contrasting the mechanized versus the natural. I would recommend this tour to anyone given the same guide.

Really interesting tour. Our guide Roberto told so much about Etna in a very interesting and engaging way. The winery visits were good and the lunch offered with wine pairings was even surprisingly good. Highly recommend!

Great wine tour with guide Giuseppe. Visited the hill town of Castiglione de Sicilia then 2 lovely wineries. We had a charcuterie board at first winery and a delicious lunch at the second. It was a lovely day and would recommend to others.

Tony was an excellent tour guide, he was so knowledgeable about all the local culture, produce and history. The wineries we went to were both different yet beautiful with lovely wine. The lunch provided as part of the tour was delicious! We all really enjoyed the tour!

Tony was a great guide, very knowledgable and engaging with us. The tour around the etna villages was really interesting and the 2 wineries we visited were lovely. Lunch at the second winery was a great addition

Great day out exploring Castiglione and two Etna wineries. Delicious wine and food. Our tour guide, Tony, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommend.

The tour included a short stop at a small village followed by visits to 2 different types of wineries. One was a large traditional winery, the other a modern winery designed with sustainability in mind. There was food a plenty - so much so, that we couldn't eat dinner afterwards. The food was delicious at both wineries. Our drivers were very knowledgeable of the area visited and fun. We thank Roberto for making us fluent in Sicilian hand gestures. The hand gestures will be handy when on the roads at home!
