    A solid all round tour with a bit of everything included. Food and drink a tasting was really interesting and well done. We spent a good amount of Etna walking around and watching the sunset. If you’re expecting more of a ‘hiking’ experience then this probably isn’t the right tour for you. We loved this trip however, as Dan made it for us. He’s a funny bloke that made the experience worthwhile

    The lava caves were way cooler than I expected! The tasting from the local winery was fantastic, got to try some wine, olive oils, jams, and honey. Over all a wonderful evening

    Simone was a great guide. He shared with us his genuine passion for the land, Sicily and Etna. The landscape is beautiful. Definitely recommend

    They tour was wonderful. Giuseppe was a phenomenal tour guide. He is very knowledge of Mt. Etna and the surrounding area. We had about 8 of us in the tour. Our first stop was a cave that had been formed from the lava flow. Then we went to Enteca Dell’Etna, it is a farm that grows olives and grapes. We did a little tasting of the different olive oils and wines. The volcanic ash that the olives and grapes give the oils and wines a different taste (better than other wines). Then we made our way up to Etna. Here we went into an inactive crater and was explained the different color of rocks. Then we climbed up another crater to watch the sunset. The sunset was great (probably better in the spring and fall when not so much haze). I recommend this tour to everyone!!! We will definitely be coming back.

    Our tour guide Mateo was lovely -and very accommodating to our pace. He was also a great driver. We enjoyed the tasting room experience and our other favorite part was taking photos by the craters.

    Such an amazing tour with our guide Giorgio! He was spirited and so knowledgable. We learned so much about the science of volcanoes, history of catania and also had so much fun! Not to forget the delicious food and wine consumed at the farm. Would recommend it!

    a super great tour! it’s great to take a bit of the beauty of the land and of the local products.
    Mateo was full of information and very engaging, he shows he likes what he does!
    it’s totally worth it seeing the sunset from up there!😉

    This was one of the highlights of our 2-week Italy trip. Regarding the tour itself, definitely worth the price. The sights were beautiful and experience unforgettable. The food tasting was fantastic – we bought half the gift shop when we left! And the staff there were extremely welcoming.
    What made the experience even better was our guide, Giuseppe. He was very knowledgeable, kind, and fun. He even dropped us off directly at the restaurant we had dinner at. Could not recommend this tour more!!!

    Giuseppe was a wonderful guide! Our tour began with a brief history of Sicily as we left Catania. He took great care in noting points of interest as we made our way from one stop to the next. He was well informed about all things Etna and, obviously, enjoyed what he was doing very much! A beautiful sunset and a great tour!

    Natacia was an amazing guide and gave us so much context. Seeing the craters and the landscape was memorable.

  14. Alan_P

    Really fun and exciting adventure up the mountain! Great views and lots of fun going into the cave. The local guide Pepe had so much useful information and was very fun. He also was a very safe driver.

  15. Vertti_H

    Very good we went with quad bikes and got to see a beautiful sunset we also tried some etna produce and drinks which all were lovely

    We took the tour 2 days after the May 23 eruption and we were quite afraid of what might happen but Giuseppe was very accommodating, knowledgeable and put us at ease. I definitely recommended it .

  17. Thomas_D

    Our guide went out if his way to give us so much information on how Etna was formed. He was very supportive and helpful on our trip to Etna.

    Loved this tour! Nando was a fantastic tour guide, was lovely learning all the details about the volcano. We first did the tasting, and yes, it is a small tasting, but it does exactly what it says on the tin: you taste a couple of different wines, jams, olive oil and different shots that they produce on the farm. All very tasty! Second we went in the small cave, nothing to worry about or to be scared about, few minutes to look around and we were off. Then we did our Etna walk and Nando made sure he adapted to everyone’s needs: one couple didn’t wanna walk, so they stayed in the bar chalet and then he came with us and another couple, who wanted to walk. We walked over a couple of inactive craters, the view was clear, fantastic and even managed to have a little sunset, we were very lucky with the weather. Being scared of heights, I can’t believe I hiked that high, very proud of myself and very happy I did it. If I can do it anyone can! The walk itself is nothing major or difficult, a light walk really, but like i said seriously thoroughly enjoyed this tour. One of the highlights of my sicilian trip!

    Loved this experience from start to end. It was well timed, not too fast paced, while the guide, Francesco, was amazing. Very knowledgeable, communicative and patient in responding to my many questions. He was also fun and considerate of all the people in the group’s needs. Would definitely repeat this stunning trip.

    We were at Sicily for 9 days, and this trip was probably the most memorable for us. The timing for the sunset was on point, the leader of the tour was really welcoming and the tasting was interesting with all the products.
