Wonderful Way to Experience Etna and Gambino Winery - This was an amazing day- Martino was our driver and guide for the day. He was so excited to share his knowledge of the area with us. He was professional, friendly and a great driver. We started by getting picked up on time from our hotel. Then we drove out to Etna park, stopping along the way several times as we climbed higher to see a small village that got covered during one of the more recent eruptions, for several photo opportunities. Martino, should he ever want a career change, was an amazing photographer! We learned about the three types of rocks produced by Etna and then we had some free time to climb inside and around two unique craters (Monti Silvestri was the easier climb) We stopped at a small honey “farm” more of a shop and tasted some interesting flavors that we could purchase and the onto Gambino winery. A wonderful way to end the day. The staff were all lovely and the pictures on Viator don’t really do the winery justice nor the lunch served. The wines were all great, if you liked one they were more than happy to pour you extra. The lunch was all paired perfectly with each wine and you were served 3 courses plus dessert. They also made it easy to ship internationally and fair pricing (I was expecting to spend triple the amount in shipping costs) Again the pictures don’t do this experience justice. Would highly recommend and Martino was amazing!

Etna & Vineyard Trip - Our trip to Mount Etna and the Vineyard was wonderful! Riccardo is very knowledgeable about the Vulcano and he took his time explaining everything. We got to taste four wines at the vineyard and had a nice lunch. I highly recommend this trip.

Etna/Lunch/Wine/Countryside Tour - We loved the experience. Ricardo was fabulous. He is a local and he knows everything there is to know about the area. We loved the tour of Etna and learning about the volcano. We also really liked the wine tasting. Gambino winery was great. They also served a good lunch.

Our tour of Etna - What a great time! Phillip was awesome. His English could’ve been a little better but it was still a great time. Etna did not disappoint and the farm stop was special. Just wish I could’ve tipped our guide more. Meeting the owner of the vineyard was great. He talked with us for a while and offered some dessert wine. What a treat.

A Must Book! - This was the BEST! And it was because of the gentle soul of our driver, Martino! He was so gracious and kind and we loved how he stopped multiple time along the route to enable us to take pictures. He was such an amazing person and we really enjoyed getting to know him.
