Mount Etna: Excursion to the Summit Craters from Etna Sud
About this experience
Most excursions on Mount Etna stop at the Silvestri Craters, at relatively low altitude – but with this exclusive tour, you can reach the top of the highest active volcano in Europe with a dedicated volcanologist guide.
Take a cable car and 4WD to Torre del Filosofo, 2900 meters above the ground, and continue on foot for approximately 3 km until you reach the summit craters. Your expert guide will share the history of the volcano with you, so you can learn the story of Mount Etna while you admire the moon-like landscape stretching out to the coast.

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.
