After graduation I worked on wildlife projects with the University of Catania always striving to combine my professional career with my true passion, show my beautiful and beloved country to all people who came here and sought authentic and local experience of Sicily and Catania. Step by step I started to work as a tour guide for several local companies. I put a special attention in selecting the best locations, from historic landmark buildings, from the main towns to the unique countryside locations and natural local beauties. So It's very complicated for me to tell you what's my favorite tour, cause all of theme are very unique. My tours stimulate all the senses, from the sight of natural and landscape beauties to the flavors and smells of cities and countryside. My land is rich of stories dating back from the distant mists of time and due to the different dominations that took place in different stages of our journey through time. So what else can I say? I can't wait to take you to discover my wonderful world. Don't hesitate to contact me to create your unique tour in my beautiful island. Licensed Tour Guide since 2010 Certified Environmental hiking guide Lifeguard license since 1992 I am not a licensed touristic guide, so I will not be able to guide you inside some archaeological areas.

Overview of your Catania tour

We will pass idyllic Sicilian villages and some of Sicily's most famous wine-growing regions and whilst gaining altitude, you will learn a lot about the country, the population and their culture. You will certainly remember the impressive play of colours of the black lava and the extraordinary vegetation on Mount Etna. As we pass by the lava flows of recent years, we will see centuries-old forests and we will stop at some of the most beautiful places on Mount Etna. After our meeting at your facility, I will take you up to 2000m asl. During an easy hike of approx. 1h. on the extint craters you will see the unique landscape with the old and new lava flows. Like the speleologists, you will be equipped with helmets and flashlights to explore one of the famous lava caves on foot after the hike. These caves were created by a lava flow and they still have special properties. At the end of our experience you can decide whether to eat something there on site or return to your accommodation.
