Reviews
Went on this tour with high expectations and after a slow start it really delivered. A long day out but the trip up Mt Etna on the cable car and 4x4 with a guide at the crater truly is bucket list material. Being on an active volcano in Sicily is something you will never forget and so this is the one tour you must do (and is actually great value also) Great tour and the whole family thought the same (not always easy!)
I did this trip on my own as my friend wasn't well . This was no problem at all - a fantastic trip really well organised . The views from mount Etna were amazing every aspect of this trip was really well organised . I'm glad I chose to do the extra trip up the cable car and in the jeeps around the cratorsv . The guides were very knowledgeable and helpful . A very early start but a wonderful day .
Guide was knowledgeable and engaging. Time at each site was sufficient so didn't feel rushed.
This tour was absolutely breath taking. The tour guide was amazing as well, unfortunately I don't remember her name. She helped me when I was having a trasportation issue, she went above and beyond to help me.
