Tour Reviews
Un’esperienza a contatto con il mare, visitando varie grotte e passando attraverso gli scogli, il personale è stato gentilissimo!
Organizzati e professionali ! La guida Maurizio è stata rassicurante e chiara nelle spiegazioni tecniche . Bella esperienza, da ripetere con loro.
Escursione davvero suggestiva. Si riescono ad ammirare tutti gli scorci della zona dal mare. La guida super disponibile e gentile. Esperienza unica, assolutamente consigliata!
Buona organizzazione, tutte le info sul sito. Bellissimo il paesaggio, pagaiare con l’Etna che sovrasta tutto sullo sfondo poi è impagabile. Maurizio davvero ottima guida, professionale, disponibile e simpatico! Grazie a lui il tour è da consigliare sicuramente a tutti (detto da chi non ama i tour ma di solito preferisce andare da solo)!
Esperiensa fantastica: ho vissuto questo travolgente tour immerso nella natura , nel parco marino di Taormina. Luoghi da paradiso. Lo consiglio!!
