    Mount Etna

    Our tour includes the arrival at the first village, that of Santa Venerina, climbing from Giarre, where we stop for a short stop to admire the cathedral of the country. During the second stop we stop for a visit and possible tasting in a local company to try many typical products of our land (honey, cheese, pistachio, oil, olives, almonds). After the tasting we leave for the exploration of the largest volcano in Europe, Etna. Arrived at 2,000 meters high we stop at Piana Provenzana, where the two non-active craters, the Silvestri craters, stand out immediately. Stop for about 1-2 hours in agreement with the customer, you take a small walk in the Silvestri craters and along the road where you can buy souvenirs, with the possibility of also making an excursion up to 2,500 meters and 3,000 meters with the typical local cable car together with the guide.
