Fun experience - We had a great time on the tour. We were a little too early in the season so the higher hikes weren’t available, but it was very neat going around the lower craters.

A Fabulous Experience - We very much enjoyed this tour where our host confirmed pick-up time with a punctual arrival.
Alessandro was incredibly knowledgeable too with both information & visual explaination regarding Etna and its peaks & flows. He also thoughtful would take photos throughout at points of interest (so we weren't limited to 'selfies & shared group ones afterwards). The area we walked was varied which included the lava cave as well as the vast formed lava site of the volcano.
The tasting of the local produce was like 'icing on the cake'. So with such scope, energy, & time from this tour, I feel it was not only good value for money, but also a lot of fun 😊

Etna and good food - We had a wonderful day exploring Mount Etna. Our guide, Carmelo, was very well-prepared and friendly, providing great insights throughout the trip.
The highlight was definitely the food; it was honestly the best we’ve eaten so far on our holiday. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a professional guide and a great local meal.

3 seasons in one day on Etna - Had a wonderful time with Lorenzo as a guide. He was very knowledgeble and flexible for our different needs. The tour was just right, not too short, not too long and we had a couple of craters to see.
Cave was more interesting than expected and at the end we had a lunch with some delicious food and drinks included in the price.
10 out of 10. Will come again for the barbecue!

Mt Etna in the snow - We weren't too sure what to expect but our guide, Bruna, who drove the tour van was fantastico. She was so full of energy and experience.. We could clearly tell how much she loves Etna. Such a great time.
The trek was just under 2 hours in the deep in places snow. Steep in places too but we stopped regularly for our guide to explain the rock forms, colour changes, the white speckles on the rock and routes of the lava. So good and interesting. And we aren't geology experienced.
Our daughter was worried beforehand about the drive up the mountain switch back roads in the van but Bruna drove exceptionally well and was very attentive to her passengers.
The tasters of oils, jams and liquor were well timed too.
We also stopped on the way up to a couple of small caves which weren't an interesting start to the day.
The hire of walking boots was also easy.
Thank you Bruna.

Educational, fun and interesting day trip - We spent a day on the road with Flavio and Nando as guides. We had a super fun and interesting day. A visit to a cave where good time was taken to tell about its creation and to take beautiful pictures. Then up Mount Etna, walking in a snow shower. I wasn't dressed warmly enough but luckily I could borrow gloves and scarf
What a service. Both guides speak excellent English and could tell a lot about the area, history and landscape. We laughed a lot together. They told with humor and interest. A relaxing and educational day. We had a very nice tasting with wine and local delicacies. Then the day ended in the beautiful Taormino. An unforgettable day partly because of Flavio and Nando.
