Memorable day - we did it! - It was a great day. Had 3 guides who were all fun, professional and helpful. And also met some really interesting people on the tour. We are a couple in our 70's and one of us found it more challenging than the other, but the guides were always there to encourage and support. Highly recommend.

Beautiful hike on Etna - This was a fantastic experience! We were able to hike to 2750m on the Etna in the hands of responsible, knowledgeable, and very able volcano guides who showed us the beautiful Etna. Would 100% recommend this tour, which was the highlight of our Catania travels.

Brilliant hike - A brilliant hike with a knowledgeable guide. A great way to see Etna! This is a hike and it doesn’t involve the 4x4 or cable car as some trips have and this was most definitely a better way to see the different elements of the landscape. Thanks Alessandro for a great day!

Highly recommended tour! - The ride was very relaxed. Then you could go to the bathroom and buy coffee, drinks and sandwiches before the climb. Very interesting things the two guides told us. The descent was then the best, because you could run in the ash sand and it was so soft!

Great Etna hike - Great tour from Catania! 1 h drive to Mount Etna. Afterwards hiking tour with 500 meters altitude and 6 km length. Basic fitness absolutely necessary! The guide gave a lot of information about the volcano and also made sure that everyone comes after it. Anytime again! A must for hikers and mountain lovers in Catania!

Great experience - I really enjoyed this morning tour. Our guide Alessio had the right equipment for everyone, sharing his enthusiasm about the diversity of the mountain, the volcano, the flora and fauna and the history in every way and infecting us with a lot of knowledge. This very vivid time has flown by and I would definitely recommend it. Is your money more than worth it.
