カターニア発エトナ山朝日ツアー

Giovanni was a spectacular tour guide. Very knowledgeable and funny as well. Hike was a bit strenuous in parts but so worth it.

Our guide Zelia is informative, friendly and professional driver for our trip. Her knowledge helped us learn a lot of things regarding the Mt. Etna. Tour consists of several stops including hiking, cave exploring, sightseeing and local shop visit. Bring comfortable and hardy shoes for it. I have participated this tour with my 1 year old baby. Hiking was challenging but it was worth it. However, forget the stroller; it is steep and spiky-rocky.

Anyone contemplating a trip up Etna needs to do their research. Some trips, including this one, takes you two thirds up Etna to 2000 metres. If you want to go closer to the summit your trip needs to include the cable car and 4-wheel drive vehicle. On this trip at no point to you see the summit of Etna. We were on a volcano tour of Italy comprising of Etna, Stromboli and Vesuvius. We should have looked at the Etna excursions in more detail as we were quite disappointed with this one. Fortunately, the other two did not disappoint.

This review will probably be unlike most others you’ll read. Paolo was our guide and did a great job explaining the hike to us. Unfortunately, minutes into the hike my girlfriend fell and broke her arm. (Purely accidental. Not in any way the tour guides fault.) He allowed the other hikers to meet up with another tour group and accompanied us to an emergency aid station and waited with us until the ambulance arrived to take my girlfriend to the hospital. Upon arriving at the hospital, another gentleman named Sebastian met us there. He also works for the tour company and refused to leave our side until my girlfriend was discharged from the hospital. He helped us get our luggage. He helped us find a new hotel and transported us there when the volcano eruption canceled our flights. He stayed with us until 9 pm . Paolo texted several times checking in.. The level of support, compassion and empathy is rare and refreshing. If you want a company that stands by its customers, this is the tour provider for you.

Be prepared to walk on uneven ground and sometimes at steep inclines. Enjoy the experience as well as the other people in your group.

the access to the cave is slightly treacherous for seniors or people with bad knees. the hike, view, caves all molto bene

We were a 3 generation family. Ages 15, 18, 40s and late 70s. Fantastic tour with Daniele, a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. The climb to the crater was fairly strenuous for thosrewho were not fit. Climbing down into the lava cave was a great experience. Loved the views of the lava flow and the Daniele really explained the geology clearly and simply. Would definately recommend this tour.

The sights we saw were amazing. The hike, the stop to see the lava cave then lava flow, all while Mt Etna was having a spectacular eruption was a once in a lifetime experience. We also enjoyed the food stop too. Costanza is a great guide and she’s funny! Thank you for a wonderful time in Catania!

Great experience getting to know Etna. Our guide Alessio explained everything in a very pleasant and interesting way. Highly recommended.

You should go ahead and book it, it is a very good experience to get to know Etna and its area without risks and with average physical preparation
