Very interesting, the guide was well-prepared and funny! this trip is a must! The scenery is spectacular!

Had I planned the trip better, I would have gone with an excursion operator and paid a little more because I wrongly assumed that 57.50 euros would allow me to climb to the top. Sadly it only took me to 2920 metres (via cable car and 4WD bus) where we were taken on a short walk with an obligatory guide... More

I was only in Sicily for 3 nights for a wedding, so I had one free day. It had to be Etna. Best to drive up to the cable car and get tickets for cable car and the 4x4 bus which includes a guide. 80mph winds on the top! Due to recent eruptions, ash covers the snow, and blows around... More

We highly recommend this guide.....you go where the big tour buses can't go via 4 wheel drive!

Stunning and beautiful. There are tons of reviews on this, but here is my what I think is a big tip. I was set to go to the top, chair lift, jeep, etc. We arrived at the lower level crater and were greeted by 60mph winds! The chair lift shut down numerous times while we were there. We chose not...

If you should do only 1 thing on Sicily, Mount Etna should be it! The drive up the mountain to Refugio Sapienze from Zafferena Etnea is already amazing. Buy your ticket for 57.50 euros in the official ticket booth to go up the mountain with a cable car and from there you will be transferred with a big jeep/bus to... More

We had a private tour arranged for us by our hotel (UNA Hotel Palace in Catania) and had a great morning exploring some of the craters, enjoying a fantastic view over Catania, a trip into one of the caves and stopped at a farm shop to sample local honey and oils. Our guide was excellent and told us a lot... More

Going up the crater by jeeps is quite an expensive experience. If you prefer to travel by yourself and have a car, take SS 92 from Nicolosi or Zafferana and park yourself, if coming from Nicolosi, after passed Rifugio Sapienza towards Zafferana, in front of a crossroad to the right, or, coming from Zafferana, before rifugio Sapienza, park at a...

Forget the expense and go right to the top, unbelievable you are on top of an active volcano, steam rising from craters. A bit of a climb and no good if you are unsteady on your feet, although a couple of people on our trip made it with a bit of help, also VERY cold when we went so wrap... More
