Even my wife loved this tour, and she isn't an outdoorsy type. - Take good shoes, something warm, and water. The tour was amazing. Our guides were very knowledgeable about the history and geology of Etna, and told us in an amusing and involving way (lots of food metaphors!). This activity was very much for me; we did the opera for y wife last week. But she said she enjoyed this far more than she expected to and would si it again. I have bad knees, and was a little concerned about the walking involved, but it turned out to be well within my abilities. It's a good half-day, ending up at a great location for a lunch and to sample some native Sicilian produce. I'd recommend it to anyone.

Fun and Informative Tour - Went on the Etna: 4x4 Tour with Guide Carmelo who was fantastic. Picked me up near my Hotel to start the Tour. Once we met the rest of the group we headed up Etna. Carmelo our Guide was so knowledgeable about the history of the volcano, the eruptions throughout its history but also the history of Catania and surrounding area. He was very helpful having walking sticks for customers if they wanted them and safety equipment for the Lava Flow Caves. Just a great Tour. Highly Recommend

Ask for Carmelo A++ - We had an amazing tour of Mount Etna with our guide, Carmelo. He was incredibly informative, friendly, and knowledgeable. What we appreciated most was his patience and the way he took his time to explain everything in detail in English, Italian, and Spanish. Each stop along the way was fascinating, and his explanations made the experience even more special. I highly recommend Carmelo as a guide if you want a memorable and well-guided tour of Mount Etna!

Etna Tour - Booked tour with Go for Etna. Tour chosen for cruises as it was timed and we were picked up at the port. Short caves sightseeing and walking along the craters. Please be sure to bring warm clothes. Even if the weather is good, it can be stormy and cold upstairs.
