Mount Etna: 3,000m Trekking Among Smoking Craters with Drone Video at Summit Base

Despite atrocious weather at the top of the mountain on our tour day (rain, hail and thunderstorm), Gianni ensured our group was safe and able to experience the mountain to the full extent possible. An informative and awe inspiring tour for those who can tolerate hiking uphill on uneven surfaces. The team provided us with boots, jackets, and helmets. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone wanting to experience Mt Etna differently.

The experience was made even better with stunning 4K footage and breathtaking drone shots. Check out the video in the link to see the experience for yourself! Amazing experience! . Worth it! Book it. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DZ3DtixsPs1/?igsh=NmZkczRsYWNoamIx I booked with pick up because there is only 1 public transport bus go in morning and 1 in the evening. So book the pickup too.

Nous avons passé un très bon moment en compagnie de Gianni. L’excursion était génial, nous avons pu voir de jolies paysages de l’Etna. Gianni n’hésitait pas à nous expliquer les différents informations sur l’histoire de l’Etna avec des explications principalement en anglais mais si besoin il nous expliquait en français. Durant l’ascension, Gianni ne demandait si ça allait et si nous avions besoin de pause ou pas. C’était top ! Le seul inconvénient a été le fait de devoir rajouter 54€ par personne pour la montée en téléphérique, ce qui n’était pas mentionné dans la description.

we had a great time! The Pick up went smoothly with Andrea and Alejandra. They kept in contact with us and spoke English very well. The Information on the App is clear worh no hidden fees. They Tendend to our every needs and amended a mistake I made during booking. (I accidently booked 3000 meter but wanted the summit tour). They send us to a different group to go to the summit. We highly reccomend this Company!

Świetnie zorganizowana wycieczka od początku do końca. Trasa była bardzo dobrze dopasowana do możliwości całej grupy, dzięki czemu każdy mógł czerpać przyjemność z wyprawy bez zbędnego pośpiechu. Przez cały czas otrzymywaliśmy mnóstwo ciekawych informacji o wulkanie, jego historii oraz otaczającej go przyrodzie, co sprawiło, że była to nie tylko aktywność, ale również bardzo interesująca lekcja. Ogromne brawa dla przewodnika, który był profesjonalny, kompetentny i doskonale wiedział, co robi. Chętnie odpowiadał na pytania, dbał o bezpieczeństwo grupy i pomagał w trudniejszych momentach trasy. Wszystko było perfekcyjnie przygotowane i zorganizowane. Zdecydowanie polecam tę wycieczkę każdemu, kto chce zobaczyć wulkan z bliska i przeżyć niezapomnianą przygodę.

It was pleasure to participate in this tour. A huge thank you to our guide Dario. He not only guided us to the volcano, but also told interesting facts and took great pictures with the drone. I'd especially like to thank you for the equipment you provided. They even gave me new socks for hiking. In addition, I many thanks to our drivers that took us from and to hotel in comfort. We will never forget this amazing experience. It was incredible to have lunch on the volcano at the top of the crater and at the same time it was very warm there again because of the volcano. And I would also like to highlight the very fun descent.

We were very happy with the experience. Dario and Gianni were our guides and led the group to the top with a good spirit and professionalism. We were greeted on arrival at the Sapienza parking, given the equipment that we needed (even longer socks), and escorted to the front of the line for the funicular. Dario spoke several languages and gave us extensive explanations on the Etna and its volcanic history. The experience was well worth the money.
