Great Etna Tour!!

Published on Jan, 2025

Nando was a very experienced guide and was very nice to get along with. He explained everything in detail and made sure we were safe the whole time. This tour is definitely worth the money and is a once in a lifetime experience which everyone should do at least once when visiting Catania. Thank you Nando for making this a great experience!!

Super tour

Published on Jan, 2025

It has been a great tour! Enzo is a very knowledgable guide. There was snow on the top of the mountain so we had to wait until is was cleared, but we took a nice walk on the side of the volcano and when we got back we could drive to the top. It was an amazing experience to see fresh snow on the vulcano. Would 100% recommend!

Great trip except weather...

A day etched in memory lane.

Loved the experience. Etna turned out to be much more than what I was expecting. Taormina is beautiful and enjoyed the golden sunset there. The Guide was very jovial and did amazing job at engaging people of varied nationalities.
