Beautiful experience. The guides were very knowledgeable about any of our questions and curiosities.
Grazie mille
We have never experienced such an amazing tour before. The main reason was Francesco, who did an outstanding job from start to finish. He is an incredibly friendly and personable guide with extensive knowledge, and the conversations with him were both interesting and enjoyable. His passion, professionalism, and attention to detail made the entire experience truly memorable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Sicily. Thank you, Francesco, for making our day so special!
Thank you for choosing to live this experience. Our guides do their best
We had an amazing Etna tour today! Francesco was an excellent guide. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about what he does. He made the experience both informative and enjoyable, and we learned so much about Mount Etna and its surroundings. Thank you for an unforgettable day. Highly recommended!
Thank you. We're happy we had a great experience with us and our guide
Luca gave us excellent advice, great organization, many explanations, and the trekking was beautiful, suitable even for our youngest son who is six years old.

Grazie a voi per averci scelto e aver scoperto le bellezze dell'Etna insieme a noi
My husband and I did this trip last week when we were in Catania. Giuseppe picked us up just before 8 am from our apartment and then collected another couple before we headed off. The drive up was about an hour long and Giuseppe told us about the landscape as we drove up. Our first stop was to a lava cave where, having had an informed chat, we donned helmets and headed down - fab. Then back to the car and up to the main base for a coffee stop before we set off on our walk. The walk itself was about an hour long. Some of the terrain was a bit slippy and others like walking in a sand dune but it was all very doable. Giuseppe paced us well, stopping from time to time to explain more about the activities of the volcano and about the local flaura found there. We finished on a highish peak with magnificent views down across the valley and out to the sea. Then it was down to the restaurant for a really delicious lunch and Giuseppe dropped us back to our apartment at about 2/2.30 pm. The whole trip was amazing. It was nice to be in a small group rather than a big tour bus. Giuseppe was warm, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable and keen to give us a good insight into the local area as well as Mount Etna itself. We were lucky when we went as we had good views despite some clouds as by the time we were leaving it was misty drizzly and very cloudy. It is cooler up there so was glad of my extra layers. Runners or hiking shoes are needed tho these can be rented up at the base if needed. Giuseppe was a superb guide and I would definitely recommend this trip - one of the highlights of our visit to Sicily!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It’s important to us that you discover the wonders of Mount Etna and get some great memories. Thank you again!
Guiseppe is a very nice Guyana with a lot of knowledge about the Etna! Great experience!
Thank you, it was a pleasure
The contact was given by the b & b in Catania. They picked us up at our accommodation, we went to the sapienza refuge and then we went trekking on the slopes of the volcano. Luca and Francesco were very helpful and friendly, they provided useful and interesting explanations! I highly recommend this excursion.
Grazie mille a voi

è stato un piacere avervi in escursione
Great experience of Etna with Giuseppe, picked up at convenient spot and on time. Had a good discussion about the mountain on route and other historical places. Lots of stops and breathers on route of the 2 HR (or so ) hike, which was very informative and interesting. Lunch afterwards was a welcome break before bringing us back to pick up location. The trip was extremely well presented and we both thoroughly enjoyed our long morning, highly recommend.
Thank you so much!
