Knowledgeable and welcoming tour of Etna

A great morning walking Etna! Our guide, Giuseppe, was so knowledgeable and provided excellent dual-language information through the tour. It would have been good to have spent a bit longer exploring the mountainside but unfortunately we got caught in a big downpour of rain and had to retreat to a restaurant in the tourist area which cut our walk a bit shorter than we’d have liked. I would definitely recommend though - solid hiking or walking shoes/trainers with good grip are a must, and a rain jacket too (for sure!).

Operator response

Even though the walk was shorter due to the rain, we are glad you were able to appreciate the beauty of Mount Etna and the work of our guide! Thank you

Etna

Francesco is the best guide. It was really nice to meet such a person. Our trip to Etna was an unforgettable experience, and a huge part of that was thanks to our guide. He was incredibly kind, patient, and full of passion for Sicily and Mount Etna. He shared fascinating stories and information in a way that made everything interesting and easy to understand. He never rushed us, answered all our questions with a smile, and made sure everyone felt comfortable throughout the tour. His enthusiasm was truly contagious. Thank you for making this day so special—I highly recommend this guide to anyone visiting Catania and planning a trip to Etna!

Adventure even for families!!

Giovanni accompanied us on this fantastic experience with our children aged 9 and 4... he was very professional, punctual, and extremely well-prepared! Patient with our pace.... We were also very lucky because the volcano was active, so we could hear its voice, see the column of smoke, and feel the rain of ash on us! Everything was perfect! Highly recommended

Operator response

Grazie a voi, è stato un piacere. L'Etna vi ha riservato uno spettacolo ancora più emozionante

Recommend this tour for anyone interested in Etna

We left Catania around 8am and was back right on schedule at 2pm. Francesco was our guide and he was very good. Started at a stop where he outlined Enta and the various major craters and how volancos are made. Was very interesting and was an amazing view. We spent about 2hrs hiking around and seeing lava flows from early 2000 as well as up a crater to get a great view. Would recommend this tour - be ready to hike and bring some water. Thanks Francesco!
