From the guide

Live a unique experience with our Etna by Jeep.
Our Guide will pick you up where agreed aboard a Jeep and support you throughout the excursion. Upon arrival, you will visit a lava flow cave with torches and helmets. Afterwards, stop for 10 minutes in a bar.
We will continue with light trekking of about 2 hours at an altitude of 2000 meters and in the Silvestri Craters area on the south side of the volcano. You will walk on a path characterized by ancient castings and breathtaking landscapes.
The tour will end with a tasting of typical Sicilian products and a light lunch, thanks to which you can taste the flavors and the food and wine tradition of our land.
A real moment of pleasure and relaxation before returning to Catania. (In the case of cruise customers the tour will become private if the number of participants is less than 4 people, in which case the Reservation Conditions will require a supplement of € 100.00 to be paid on the day of the service.)
