Tucked into the volcanic hillsides of Mount Etna, a world of artisan producers, medieval villages, and time-honored traditions awaits, and this private full day tour from Catania brings guests directly into it. The experience begins in a scenic hazelnut grove, where a local farmer shares freshly harvested hazelnuts, a tasting of extra virgin olive oil with warm focaccia, and a glass of wine with sweeping views of Etna as the backdrop. The medieval village of Randazzo follows, where a local shepherd guides guests through a tasting of freshly made ricotta and Nebrodi provola cheese, with the option to try cow milking firsthand. A stop at a local pastry shop introduces handcrafted Sicilian cannoli and traditional granita, made entirely by hand.

The day concludes in Linguaglossa with a convivial lunch featuring salsiccia al ceppo, log-fired sausage, alongside a platter of local specialties and a glass of Etna wine.
