Things to do in Catania

I was so grateful for our kind guide who explained everything thoroughly and took such good care of us. When I was struggling, they held my hand and walked with me, haha. It was a fun experience! ♥♥

The pick-up was punctual, the pick-up location was easy to find, the tour guide/driver had excellent driving skills, and a wealth of knowledge, providing a lively and interesting introduction along the way; the itinerary included visits to local specialty shops (with samples of honey, wine, and olive oil available for tasting), a walk through a volcanic cave (hard hats required for the entire duration, and the tour guide provided each person with a flashlight to use during the cave visit), and a walk on a trail towards the volcano; visiting in January meant that Mount Etna had recently been covered in snow, and the powdery snow covering the trails, combined with the smoking Mount Etna, made for great scenery and an unforgettable experience.

it was a wonderful trip up to Mount Etan, thanks to Carmelo. He has been very helpful along the way, without him we will not be able to come back down from the mountain easily and safely. Thank you very much for his service.

The tour guide was very enthusiastic and friendly. The scenery after taking the cable car (cable car tickets need to be purchased separately) was spectacular and well worth it. There is still snow on the mountain this season, so please be aware of glare from the snow and the risk of sunburn.
