What To Expect
Etna Est
Start from your accommodation.
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.

5.00We had a blast on the excursion to Etna! There was a mixed group of ages and everyone handled the conditions well (we did walk through some snow). Daphne was incredibly knowledgeable about Etna, geology, and forestry, plus she was so friendly and made our trip really enjoyable. I would recommend this trip to anyone looking for a nice adventure!
A Marvelous day!

4.00Guides and driver were all very friendly and welcoming. Good value for money, trip included pick up and drop off at our hotel which made it very easy in an area we didn't know. Could have done with a slightly longer break in the middle as it was very difficult to get served food and drink in the time available.
Our Guide Mauricio was so...

5.00Daphne was our guide and she is very knowledgeable in explaining everything about Etna. We went to see lava cave and had a good hike on one of the crater of Etna at 2000m, which still had a incredible view from up there. It was an immersive experience of knowing a bit more about this Volcano. Would highly recommend!
A highlight of my trip

5.00Had a great time thanks to our guide Leonardo who has a real passion for volcanoes. I was able to borrow hiking boots (sneakers would be ok but with so much loose gravel, boots are best). I had been worried about being underdressed because the reported temperature at the top was below freezing (this is in late aprili), but a sweatshirt and light jacket were fine. The hike is moderately strenuous but only one hour. We had time for a couple nice breaks on the way up and after our hike to have some food.
Great value for money - a must if you are in Catania!

5.00We really appreciated the family atmosphere of a small group. Our guide drove very quietly, was very communicative, pleasant and friendly. We learned a lot about Etna and were impressed by the things we could see and experience. The tour met our expectations.
Great trip!
