It was a little more challenging than anticipated for older adults. The people in their 30's handled it well. Being older I was able to walk up the side of the craters but more work than thought. What really made out trip was the tour guide who Americans call Connie. Great personality and very caring with a sense of humor!
Our guide was Paolo. He was fantastic! Explained everything in simple yet technical language and we left the tour having a better understanding of volcanoes in general and especially Etna. Highly suggest this tour for everyone interested in volcanoes. It is to walk up to see the craters for everyone. Just wear sensible clothes and shoes.
A wonderful half day seeing Etna, a lava cave and wine and olive oil tasting. We were traveling with our 8 month old baby and our guide and group were very nice and accommodating. The walk up on Etna was a little more hike like than expected, so it was good we had our baby carrier with us!
This excursion was disappointing for several reasons. First, myself and another person in our group of 8 was uncomfortable climbing to the upper slope of Mt Etna because of the height and narrow trail we were expected to climb. We had to drop out and wait an hour for our guide and the others. The cave experience was quite limited and seemed much less significant a cave than friends on another tour explored. We were also taken to a scenic overlook and an olive oil shop which seemed intended for the benefit of our guide. Paulo, the guide and driver added very little to my understanding of volcanos and mostly chatted with the couple sitting with him in the front seat of the van. The van itself was tired and required a bungee cord to hold the middle row seat in a position to allow exit from the rear seat. All in all, this was a disappointing experience.
Dear guest, Thank you for your feedback. We understand your disappointment. On slope safety: The upper slopes feature steep terrain and unstable volcanic rock—we always ask participants to assess their own capabilities. Your decision not to climb was the right one; safety is never negotiable. About the cave : We visit the accessible section of the Etnean cave system. The experience varies depending on current conditions and group composition. On the tour stops: The excursion was executed exactly as planned and advertised. The visit to the agricultural farm and the scenic overlook are standard stops on our itinerary—part of exploring Etna’s cultural and gastronomic heritage. On the van: The middle-row seat is fully functional. The safety strap you noticed is simply an additional protective measure we use on all our vehicles to ensure maximum safety during transfers. On the guide: We appreciate your feedback. Our guides must balance hospitality with educational expertise, and we are committed to continuous improvement. Best regards,Exclusive Etna Excursions
Harder to climb than advertised and walking shoes should have been mentioned as trainers are slippery. The guide was great though.
Beautiful drive from Catania and interesting tour and sights at Mt Etna. Highly recommend. Good for groups or individuals.
Incredible tour guide! Zelia made our day. She made the information about Mount Etna volcano interesting. She fully engaged with our group and had everyone laughing and paying attention to all the information. She’s a pro!
This adventure up Etna exceeded my expectations! The meeting spot for all Etna tours is a bit chaotic so be prepared for that. Our guide Francesco picked us up and safely conducted our group up Etna, into a cave on the mountain side, and to a beautiful winery and apiary for a well rounded tour. Francesco was very knowledgeable about the mountain, volcanoes, rock formations, timelines, and so much more! He went up the mountain at a perfect pace and gave us ample time to soak in the incredible views. My only recommendation is to dress in layers, as it was about 25-27C at pickup location, and maybe 20-23C up the mountain. My partner previously did a tour with a cruise ship and it is similar in the climbing and winery but this one has the added bonus of the cave and a gorgeous lookout point at a volcanic desert! If you are trying to compare between booking with your ship and booking this, this is definitely worth your time!
Very amicable. Very humorous. Very knowledgeable. Paolo speaks very good English and he treats his customers like family. He has researched a lot about volcanology in general, and Mt Edna specifically. Grazie mille, Paolo!
Great experience! We had a great time visiting Mt etna. The tour was just as described. The tour guides were great and kept us on itinerary. The hike can be steep and slippery with the loose rocks. Wear good gripped shoes and bring a jacket. The guides had extra jackets too which was perfect! The massive scale of this active volcano is amazing and so fun to see the lava caves too! The taste testing of local goods was a great addition. The roads are windy and might need motion medication or bring some ginger chews. We had a person in our van get quite sick.
