The best experience in Catania
"Gloria and Antonio looked after us so well.
We arrived to a home full of local delights to try and then proceeded on to a series of small dishes with matching wine. This is certainly one to try. Hospitality was amazing.

"Gloria and Nino are fabulous hosts. From the email communications to directions on arrival, the whole evening was unforgettable. Gloria was brilliant at explaining about all the different foods we ate along with showing us how they were prepared and how they were cooked. Nino was a fabulous waiter (as Gloria described 😁) and being in both their company was a great experience. The whole evening was way beyond what we had expected and would recommend to anybody who is looking to dive into Sicilian food and meet some fabulous Sicilian locals."
"Maria led us on a tour of Mt. Etna. She was knowledgeable about the history, geology and botany of the area. We all learned something new about Sicily and about volacanos. Maria guided in French beautifully and her English is also excellent. It was a windy day, but we felt confident in Maria’s expertise and judgement which prioritized our safety. Communication prior to the tour was prompt, professional and very helpful. Highly recommend!"
