Very Strenous but Excellent
It was excellent and we are glad that we did it. The two guides, Luka and Francesco, were excellent and patient. However, it was difficult. You need to be in good health, able to hike 4 miles round trip, and climb 24 flights of stairs-which is according to my smart watch. You climb over lava rocks for a bit and walk up to the summit of the crater. Luka made it a point to stop frequently to explain what we were looking at. It took longer than the 3.5 hours advertised. The little shops at the bottom were great for souvenirs and food and the vendors were excellent.
