L'Etna è il vulcano attivo più alto d'Europa e una vera e propria icona della Sicilia. Avrete la possibilità di avventurarvi a 1.900 o 2.900 metri sul livello del mare per ammirare i paesaggi lunari dei crateri del vulcano. Sarete accompagnati da Taormina al Rifugio Sapienza, dove - se avete scelto di salire a 2.900 metri - passerete a una funivia e a un veicolo 4x4 per raggiungere il cratere principale per una passeggiata guidata e una vista epica. Se invece scegliete di rimanere a 1.900 metri, avrete tempo libero per esplorare i sentieri naturalistici intorno ai Crateri Silvestri, insieme a negozi di souvenir, caffè e un piccolo museo che racconta la storia del passato della montagna. In ogni caso, non perdete l'occasione di portare con voi la macchina fotografica.

Mount Etna guided sunset tour with Sicilian dinner
Watching the sky light up with shades of orange and then burn out into darkness while standing atop a volcano is a special sensation. This drama-rich tour takes you to Mount Etna – a must-visit when in Sicily. You'll head to an altitude of almost 3,000 metres to catch the sunset and then relax over a traditional meal to round off your adventure. You'll go by minibus to Etna, then, as the terrain becomes rockier, you'll switch to a 4x4 vehicle. As you make your way to 2,900m above sea level – the highest point that's safely reachable – there'll be stops to take in the harsh, lunar landscape and the lava-smothered flanks of this towering mountain.
