Mount Etna
Along the trail that will take us up to 2000mt a.s.l., our guide will tell you about how the highest volcano in Europe was born, without leaving the aspects related to flora and fauna that characterize it. After admiring old and new lava flows we will proceed on foot to the inner part of old craters. The charming panorama and the picturesque scenery will give us the feeling of being on the moon. After a short break, the hike will continue with a visit, carrying helmet and torch, inside a lava cave to admire a unique spectacle. Walking through a luxuriant vegetation, we will finally admire the spectacular Valle del Bove.

Our guide Daphne was extremely helpful. We are a family of 4 and this was exactly the right trip - not too taxing but a good length of time, lots of great info and you are in the midst of Etna.

The experience of visiting the active volcano was wonderful. The guide was spectacular, a professional volcanologist who perfectly explained the history of Etna and its eruptions. We were able to see the craters, the caverns they form, and the path of the magma. 100% recommended.

Overall a good experience. Our guide Leonardo didn't seem very motivated and was speaking in a thick italian accent, we only understood about half of what he was saying.
