A different world - We had a perfect day on the Etna thanks to Giuseppe who picked us up from Siracusa and brought us hiking to beautiful places on the mountain. His knowledge of the mountain comes from years of experience and respect for the land. With his guidance the mountain becomes more then a landscape-it becomes a story.

Fantastic hiking on mount Edna, with really skillful and eloquent guide - 2 hours walk on Mount Edna, about 6 km total. The guide, Guiseppe, is speaking well in English, and told live about Edna's history with many eruptions, geology, types of lava, ash, and vegetation. We saw large craters, plateau, and views all out to the coast. Guiseppe knows Edna and knows where the best view is, no matter what the weather is. It was an exciting trip and it wasn’t too challenging, just remember walking shoes and jacket. That was exactly what we expected. It was a really good experience.

Volcanic experience - This trip was a life time amazing experience for us. We never been to such a volcanic trip where you can see a unique flora and a huge bed of volcanic rocks created by magma. Walking and running on volcanic sand was thrilling and fun 😊

Mt. Etna hike - Our guide, Giuseppe, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He picked us up and was very professional. The hike along the Donkey's Back trail was a vigorous one with breathtaking views of crators and the valley with the lava flows. Giuseppe pointed out the different formations that the lava created along with the plants and animals we saw along the way. We had a fantastic visit to Mt. Etna. Thank you!
