Catania: Mount Etna Guided Morning Tour
About this experience
Depart in an air-conditioned vehicle (jeep or van) from the meeting point towards Mount Etna.
Along the route, which takes you to an altitude of 2,000 m, your professional guide will tell you about the history of the volcano.
Walk along trails away from tourist areas and see the local flora and fauna. Your guide will highlight various aspects of the volcano, including its nature and resources, landscapes, and lava flows that have shaped the territory and destroyed buildings and roads.
Visit an area of ancient explosive activity, such as the hornitos or flow caves (helmets and torches will be provided).
Go to a viewpoint to see the Valle del Bove, the most important valley on the eastern side of the volcano, famous for its lava desert.
Before returning, taste typical products from the Zafferana Etnea area.

HMBotel notes for choosing your ticket
Compare the inclusions above with your plans: admission, a guided visit and a combination ticket may cover different services. The venue name alone is not enough to compare them.
Check the meeting point and arrival instructions before adding another activity. The displayed duration describes the activity; plan travel from your hotel and your return separately.
Booking and payment take place with Tiqets. On that final page, confirm the date, participants, visit language, final price and cancellation rules; an indicative HMBotel price is not a guarantee of availability.
