Personal and friendly guide. Perfect evening tour to see the city.
Dora was wonderful. I enjoyed listening to the history and superstitions of the city. The snacks and wine were delicious.
Fascinating legends and amazing local guide. The arancino and Etna wine stop gave the tour an authentic sicilian feel. Great balance of mystery and flavor, the stories about witches were hunting!
