After boarding onto our speedboat I will take you onto a beautiful tour of the vulcan. We will first go to Ginostra then I will bring you to the Sciara del Fuoco. You will enjoy the beautiful eruptions of Stromboli and an amazing sunset too !! I find it always a fantastic experience ! I have been living in Stromboli for over 30 years and I love this island! but more precisely the vulcan! Stromboli is not only one of the many beautiful islands of the Mediterranea Sea, but it is the only one where volcanic activity takes place unceasingly in front of our very eyes, and where the visitor can see the explosions so it makes sense that the best way to enjoy it is from the sea!
Inclusions: All Fees and Taxes
Exclusions: Take a cash for the aperitivo - Drinks and Finger foods are not included
Pasqualo and his team are absolutely amazing! So helpful and reliable. Our tour to the Sciara was absolutely the highlight of our holiday and I cannot recommend it enough. Sitting there in the little boat under the cover of darkness watching the eruptions was just the chance of a lifetime and one of the best nights of my life! We will definitely use Pasqualo again should we return to Stromboli. He is such a sweetheart! Thank you Pasqualo!

After boarding onto our speedboat from the port in Stromboli, I will take you onto a beautiful tour of the vulcan. We will pass by Ginostra, the other village of Island Stromboli reachable only by boat, where you can have a walk and enjoy the nice and relaxing atmosphere. In Stromboli, the dominant colour of the sea is neon blue, which becomes lighter, greener or more turquoise, depending on where you bathe. I will also bring you to some nice spots for swimming, snorkeling before we move towards the Sciara del Fuoco (Street of Fire). And finally, you will discover what "deep blue" means, in Strombolicchio! The best way to enjoy Stromboli, it is from the sea! and I will be glad to share my passion and knowledge about the island and the vulcan with you.
Inclusions: Private transportation
Exclusions: Snacks

Fábio gave us a tour of the places where iconic scenes from The Godfather movies were filmed. It was just me and my Father so he tailored the tour to what we wanted to see and do. His English is excellent, super knowledgeable and explains things very clearly. We learnt lots and had a really good time. Took pictures for us, dropped us off for a few hours in Taormina for lunch then picked us up and took us to a few extra places to take some pictures before coming back down to Catania. He also recommended THE BEST pizzaria we've been to. Very flexible and offers all sorts of tours and trips, just let him know what you need/want! (sometimes even airport transfers) This is his company he is running with his colleague, and he was born and raised in Sicilly, so very passionate and loves his job. Would highly recommend to literally anyone who comes to Sicilly.

We had a very nice day doing a boat trip to Salina with Captain Giovanni. It’s not easy to choose an option in Lipary, as the offer is huge, but I don’t think we could have made a better decision. The boat is very nice and was comfortable for us (there were only two more couples at our party). He is a nice and easy going person who understood that we enjoyed jumping from the boat so much to swim on the crystal clear waters that he allowed many stops for swimming and snorkeling on amazing spots along the beautiful west coast of Lipary. He loves what he does and enjoys sharing his passion for his home island and the sea. It has been a pleasure to meet Captain Giovanni. I will definitely recommend his company to our friends.

We loved our excursion, it was even better than expected. Our guide Pepe was very knowledgeable and kind. Before booking we were considering going up by ourselves and stop at 2900 meter but are SO GLAD we did this tour. I honestly feel it’s a completely different experience being able to go up to 3300 meters. We could hear the volcano growling and the lava spouting up but didn’t feel unsafe at any point - Pepe was great. I would say the hike was slightly more intens than expected with steep declines but as long as you’re reasonably fit it shouldn’t be an issue - it only made it more fun for us. Highly recommend!!!

We started with the boat tour in the morning. Seeing Sicily from the water was beautiful and an amazing experience. I love swimming in the crystal clear water - it definitely helped with my fear of “what’s swimming under me??” Taormina is beautiful and the knowledge and warmth our tour guide Chiara made the experience exponentially more amazing

Based on recent reviews we booked this trip VERY trepidatiously – it was the only departure that was convenient for us and we braced ourselves for a really hectic experience. In the event, the boat was about two thirds empty and there was no scrum to get on or off. We saw other boats offering similar departures that were really busy so I think it's just the luck of the draw in terms of how busy your boat is. The boat left and arrived on time from each of its departure points and the commentary was really useful as well as being crystal clear in terms of when the next departure was. The islands are absolutely beautiful and sitting for around an hour watching Stromboli erupt was a unique experience, and €50 per adult (our four year old travelled free) is really good value. FWIW, we were told that parking in Milazzo hasn't been policed for the last five years so you can park in any spot that isn't marked in yellow (handicapped spots). We parked in a two hour spot and returned to our car that evening with no problems. Also consider taking ginger tablets of some kind of seasickness medication as even waters that look calm can end up a little choppy. Sit on the boat's lower levels for a more comfortable ride!
