What you can expect

  • Your guide will pick you up at the meeting point and from there, you will begin a wonderful adventure to discover the beauty of Mount Etna. It's the highest active volcano in Europe and, since 2013, has also been a UNESCO heritage site.

    With our 4x4 vehicles (Land Rover Defender and Toyota Land Cruiser) along an off-road route we will across the remains of ancient lava flows that destroyed villages and the Etna woods. Equipped with a helmet and torch, visit a beautiful volcanic cave that was formed from a lava tube. You will also discover the incredible ancient volcanic caldera of the Valle del Bovea and the volcanic desert.

    Accompanied by our hiking guide, you will take a pleasant walk in the volcanic desert, surrounded by extint lateral craters, at a height of 2000mt (6500ft) asl. Cross the volcanic desert and discover the few endemic plants that survive here. Throughout the journey, our guide will tell you everything that you'd like to know about the history, fauna, flora, and geology of Mount Etna as you admire its unique landscapes.

    At the end of the tour, you will be driven back to the meeting point.
