The best guy ever!
Courtney_B
, Oct 2020
The weather was really bad and unfortunately couldn't see a lot due to the rain, wind and mist. However, Saro did the best he could to give us still the best experience, and thanks to him we still had an awesome day. The guy is very genuine, friendly and so passionate when explaining about the volcanoes. He also took us to a lava tube which was amazing!

Knowledgeable friendly guide, intimate group ,
Stuart_M

Our tour was from 8.30-15.30 Saro was friendly and welcoming. It was a small intimate group which was great. He was very passionate and knowledgeable and educated us about the area well. He took us up 2000m and we walked amongst and on the edge of craters - slightly disappointing as I’m sure his reviews said he took his parties up towards 3000m? He also took us to a lava tube which was fascinating! Provided the hard hats too! He gave us a taste of local wine and biscuits and then took us to a local business where we got free tastings of local honey, olive oils and wine with the opportunity to purchase. We would recommend Saro and his tour

Best Etna tour!
Sjoerd_S

Touring with Saro was better than we expected! He is very knowledgeable about the Etna and volcanoes, lava/magma, etc. The group was nice and small (he never takes more than 6 people anyway) and we hiked along a path away from other tourists and with the best view of the smoking crater. I would definitely recommend this trip!

WInter visit to Etna
Patricia_S
, Feb 2020
My husband and I felt we had an exceptional excursion with Saro. He was a very knowledgable guide on Mount Etna, it's geophysical structure and its impact on the lives of residents that call this area home. In addition Saro provided us with a lot of interesting and informative information on the culture and lives of the people of this area. He shows a lot of enthusiasm for his work. He picked up on our personal interests and was able to bring these interests into his information. The tasting of local products was a nice addition. The vehicle was comfortable and appropriate and we appreciated being picked up at our B&B. I would highly recommend Saro to anyone wanting an excursion to Mount Etna.

A trully spectacular experience, marvelous sights of a beautiful volcano - all this with a really friendly and informative guide. Etna is an impressive sight which diverges from initial expectations. I would recommend it to anyone. Bonuses that give this exact exurcion are: pickup from hotel, prepared with equipment and stories guide, small compact group.
