This is one of the most amazing trips we've done ! Breathtaking views beyond compare and wonderful guides. I can't recommend this enough. Do take warm clothes though, and do be aware that there is a bit of hiking involved on shale and rocks. Thank you so much SAT group. This was incredible.

The tour guide was amazing and very friendly. The tour was exactly as the company explained and the sunset views are incredible! They have many different pick up points so that's a plus! Maybe just bring a face mask in case the wind is blowing your way because it's quite ashy up there and it will make you cough but that is obviously up to you.

Etna is a beautiful place, and being able to walk across the landscape, take in the views, and experience the sunset there is a special experience. Our guide did a good job, and even went out of his way to help a fellow traveler who had some issues with heights. Very kind. It is quite cold on Etna, so be sure to bundle up - certainly wear pants and more than a windbreaker. The restaurant at the bottom was quite good, better than I expected, with tasty pizza and an extensive local craft beer selection.
