The experience can be tailored to your desires and abilities… More climbing more cave exploring, etc. Omar made it special and tailored to our needs. Recommend it highly.
We had a lovely afternoon and evening, enjoyed wine tasting and honey, then out of the rain and up Mt Etna to view stunning vistas and sunset on the mountain. Very knowledgeable guide who took the time to answers many questions about the Etna ecosystem.
Alberto was incredible! His extensive knowledge of Mt. Etna made our experience truly unforgettable. He picked us up near our Airbnb and was friendly and engaging throughout the journey. Our first stop was at a local bee farm, where we had the chance to taste some incredible honey and sample local wines. We then explored a fascinating volcanic tube before heading up to an area with stunning views of numerous craters, allowing us to capture amazing photos. The experience culminated in a breathtaking sunset view with a glass of prosecco – it was absolutely magical. Highly recommend!
alessandra was great! punctual and knowledgeable about Etna’a volcanology. we enjoyed the brief hike in lower etna with spectacular views and topping off with a prosecco toast!
We had a fantastic time with Alberto! The hike up to the crater was so much fun and seeing Etna doing her little puffs of lava was so cool. Doing this at night while enjoying a bottle of Prosecco was the best. Would highly suggest requesting Alberto as your tour guide!
First, learning about in the 1800s how they made blocks of ice from the snow and kept them in the cave that we then explored. And of course climbing g Mt Etna.
The drive up to Mt. Etna was beautiful. Our driver was friendly and informative. I highly recommend the tour.
Rafael was so knowledgeable and he was very excited to share his knowledge of Sicily with us. The your was a lot of fun and more than we expected. We would highly recommend this tour with Raphael.
