But, differently, we offer excursions more informal and engaging with outstanding itineraries.Our guides, professional and adept, will lead you to the discovery of the volcanological and ethnographic aspects of Etna, as well as its flora and fauna. A picnic of Sicilian flavors for a festive break accompanied by good local wine will also enable you to remember this day not just as a simple excursion but also as an experience brightened by colors and emotions. The collected feedback from all the B&Bs and Hotels have left us able to individualize suggestions, itineraries and qualified people able to transform the excursions around the volcano into an authentic experience. « less

I moved to Catania in October 2012 and have had various friends and family visit over the last 7 months. After 3 tours with Etna Experience, I can honestly say that they provide a fun and informative excursion to the largest active volcano in Europe. The guides speak several languages with ease and are happy to answer any questions. If... More

Had a great day with Mario, our guide - very knowledgeable and passionate about all things volcanic and generally about the location around Etna. It was a small group of about 7 people which meant that you really felt like part of a team not just a big touring group. And also the lunch was spot on, so all in... More

With a friend, we went for the Classic Experience tour - a full day trip to Etna, with a visit to Alcantara village. We got picked up from the hotel, which was very convenient. The group was small, only 8 of us. Our guide was Danilo, brilliant, very knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about the volcano. He drove us around in... More

My husband and I booked the full day Etna and Wine Tour. Our guide for the day, Alessandro, picked us up right on time, and off we went! Our tour had a total of 8 people. For the first part of the day, we hiked up Mt Etna to about 2000 meters. Just a warning, my husband and I were... More

There were five of us, me, two friends of mine and a Russian couple who were very nice. Our guide Danilo was the greeeeeatest guide you could ever get, very knowledgeable, funny and dedicated. Without him we wouldn't have had that much fun! The weather was, luckily enough, perfect - not cloudy at all and rather warm. Danilo picked us... More

We took the risk of visiting Sicily in February - particularly Mount Etna. Seeing that the weather in Taormina wasn't bad we contacted the Etna Experience team to book an excursion two days later. On arrival at Mount Etna we realized that it was windy, foggy with very poor visibility. We were disappointed that weather was not great and we... More

I took a classic tour from Etna Experience in November 2012. Definitely recommend it. You must go to Sicily and take the Etna tour. I did a booking at the last minute since I wasn't sure about going to Sicily alone. However, I couldn't resist because of my love for geology. It was the best decision though. Sicily is truly...
