GuruWalk may do better - I was one day only in Catania, I did not get educational tour, it was nice 2 hour walking with lovely person. I understand this is cheap tour, thought this is group tour, apparently it was only me. But need elementary knowledge to do basic tour, in my case was nothing. I don't feel comfortable to say that because my tour guide was such good heart person.
