GREAT EXPERIENCE TO DO ABSOLUTELY IF YOU ARE NEARBY - Really great experience and to recommend. We chose the tour Etna and the Alcantara Gorges. Our Guide Aristide accompanied us and explained in detail everything we admired, debunking false myths we had about volcanoes. Wonderful visit to the lava flow cave

5-star experience - Beautiful day. Punctual, competent especially the Guide (Alberto) who accompanied us between Etna, Caves and Gorges of the Alcantara telling us their story meticulously. Alberto made this experience even more interesting by transmitting his passion for his work and the places where he was born and raised. Absolutely promoted. Thank you!

Etna and Alcantara in brief - Tour of Etna and the Alcantara gorges accompanied by the very kind, extremely helpful and highly trained guide Aristide Tomasino. We spent a very pleasant day passing in the morning, after an exhaustive explanation during the journey, to the gorges of the three levels climbing up to the Speranza refuge near the sylvan craters where we were able to enjoy a suggestive and spectacular view. Afterwards, tasting of wines and specialties in the city of Zafferana and, in the afternoon, visit to the Alcantara gorges where we were able to visit the beautiful park and take a bath in the cold water of the river. Beautiful and memorable day, recommended.
