Mine is a different vision of Etna: a truly sensorial excursion, through which you can breathe, listen, observe Nature under a totally different aspect than usual. Etna is everyone's mountain, which knows how to speak to those who have the desire to listen to it. You will close your eyes and breathe in the intense and intoxicating scents of the pioneer plants that dot the whole territory like large pillows. When you finish the route, you will look at the volcanoes with a different attitude.

      Fabulous Day exploring Etna and it's Wines
      My husband and I had a fabulous day with Francesca. She's incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the wines, history, and geology of the entire Etna area (and Sicily in general). On short notice, she organized a great day and we look forward to coming back. We first went up the mountain to see a ski resort town buried in the 2002 eruption, met a talented photographer with amazing photos and videos of past eruptions, then went to a cave formed by a lava tube. Francesca knew all the geology behind it, including the different flora found at each elevation and eruption area. Then we went to a small winery with fabulous wines where we met the enologist who talked about the difficulties of making wines from each local varietal (we make wine ourselves so the details were of great interest) She took us to a wonderful local restaurant which served my husband's favorite pasta dish. Just as good as his Sicilian mother's, he declared. We finished the day at another winery wuth a gorgeous view over the vineyards all the way to the sea. After stopping at a small shop for local honey and other treats, she drove us back to our hotel, giving us further local recommendations. A fabulous, well-paced day spent with a wonderful woman!! I'd recommmend Francesca to anyone who wants an expert and fun guide to Etna's many bounties!
