I have been working as a guide in my homeland, Sicily, for over six years. Before that, I spent five years in Australia working as a private driver and tour guide. I have completed various training and certification programs to start my own tour business in Taormina, Sicily. I was born and brought up in Sicily, and this beautiful land with its wholesome atmosphere holds a special place in my heart. It is full of rich history, traditions, stunning landscapes, vibrant colors, and delicious food. My passion for local traditions and the extraordinary Mediterranean landscapes of Sicily has made me knowledgeable about the area, and I am always ready to go the extra mile to ensure that my clients experience the best holiday possible. My tours are both professional and fun, and I always try to be helpful and friendly. Exceptional customer experience and safety are my top priorities, and I am always available to share my local knowledge with my clients, offering useful tips on where to go, what to visit, where to eat, and more. To provide an authentic and inspiring trip, I work only with small groups, giving my clients a unique insight into local life. If you have any questions about my tours or would like to know more about what I can offer, please don't hesitate to get in touch! You can even just drop me a line to say hello. I would be more than happy to answer your questions and help create a custom itinerary for you. My business vehicle is fully licensed. I am a fully licensed mountain guide, hiker, and driver. Due to certification requirements, I cannot be your tour guide inside museums and historical buildings.

🌋🍷 Exploring Europe's highest active volcano is always an unforgettable experience, especially with a passionate local guide by your side. For me, Mount Etna is a magical place, rich in legends, history, and the incredible power of nature. Together, we will discover ancient lava flows, extinct craters, and fascinating volcanic landscapes while enjoying breathtaking views across Sicily. Along the way, I will share stories and insights about the volcano that has shaped this land for thousands of years. 🍇 Our adventure continues at a local winery, where you will visit the vineyards and learn how Etna's unique volcanic soil creates some of Sicily's most celebrated wines. Guided by expert sommeliers, you will enjoy a tasting of exceptional Etna wines and discover the secrets behind their production. ✨ Join me for a journey that perfectly combines nature, culture, and the authentic flavors of Mount Etna.
This was a truly specialized tour as Randazzo is not on the itinerary of most travelers to Sicily but is the namesake to a couple in our group so couldn’t be missed! Vito made it happen and beautifully coordinated it with a tasting at Gambino Winery. You spend a full day with your guide so enjoying their company is a big deal and it was easy with Vito. Mr Excursion is an excellent company with outstanding guides. 🇮🇹
Had a great tour of Mt. Etna. The views were great and our guide was knowledgeable. Enjoyed going to Gambino for lunch. It was a nice day.
Vito did a great job on the tour. We headed up Mt. Etna and he provided a bunch of details about the surrounding area. The conversations were a good mix of information and general engagement with the family. The weather didn't really cooperate with us on the day. It was snowing and visibility was very low, but Vito still did a great job of making it a fun experience. After the hike and visiting one of the caves, we headed down to the Gambino Winery. The tour was interesting and food and wine pairings were great. It was a fun excursion.
Excellent guide!
Vittorio was absolutely wonderful and he was able to tailor this tour specifically to our desires and physical abilities. It was a great day!
Vittorio was a perfect guide for our day exploring Mount Etna and the winery. His knowledge of the area and the volcano's history paired with his awesome sense of humor and passion for the mountain perfectly shaped our day. Our next trip to the area will start with Vittorio as our guide!
