We went to the lava...

Published on Jan, 2025

We went to the lava tunnels and it was fun. Very knowledgeable tour guides. Learned a lot about how the city was formed thousands of years ago. We learned that certain precautions must be taken when the volcano is erupting. Great views and took lots of pictures.

well worth it!

Published on Jan, 2025

we hit a heavy snow storm, but our guide did everything possible to make this a wonderful experience and also very educational regarding the history of Mt Etna and its eruptions.

Wonderful experience at Etna

Published on Nov, 2024

Definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to know more about Sicily, volcanos or Etna. Our guide is very knowledgeable of the geological history of the island and pointed out details on site for us to understand the formation of the landscape.

Super time

We had a great experience visiting Mount Etna. They are super friendly, and that tour was a nice length of time. Two brothers started this and we had wine tasting afterward that was included, which was a nice surprise and very fun
