I'm a professional tour guide since 2000 and I'm very committed and focused on sharing my home region's richness in natural, historical and cultural beauty with people approaching Sicily. This is a land where we care about the others and our lifestyle is easy and relaxed. In showing people around I always try to mix descriptions of the Sicilian cultural heritage with detailed insights on what being Sicilians means.

“Perfect Day in Sicily with Vincenzo”
There were four of us on this tour and Vincenzo provided a perfect day for us. We started with a stop in a bakery in a small village on the drive up to north side of Etna. Then a short hike up to the 1865 lava fields during which Vincenzo explained the history and characteristics that make Etna special. We then went to the village of Milo where Vincenzo had arranged for us to have freshly made arancini and wine on the main square with breaktaking views of the sea. Then a stop in Taormina for cappuccino and shopping capped a perfect day. Thank you Vincenzo for your wonderful hospitality!
