What to expect

Embark on an exciting journey from Piano Provenzana, nestled at a lofty 1,800 metres on the northern flank of Mount Etna. Traverse the rugged terrain in special 4x4 off-road vehicles, expertly guided by professional Alpine guides authorised by the Etna Park Authority. Your first stop is the “Umberto and Margherita” craters, perched at approximately 2,380 metres. Here, you can take a brief trek along the rim of these two enormous extinct craters.

Next, venture towards the volcanological observatory, situated at an altitude of 2,818 metres. After disembarking from the vehicles, a short but invigorating 15-minute trek commences. This will lead you to the summit of the Pizzi Deneri promontory, standing tall at 2,850 meters. If the weather permits, you'll be awestruck by panoramic views of the Aeolian Islands, the Jonic coast stretching from Syracuse to Taormina, the gulf of Giardini Naxos and the Calabrian coast.

Finally, return to Piano Provenzana, completing your thrilling expedition. This tour offers the chance to experience the raw power and majesty of Mount Etna – a remarkable testament to Mother Nature's grandeur.

    Travelled as a couple


    Het was een erg leuke tocht en erg bijzonder om te zien. De gids legde het duidelijk uit. Doordat hij het in 2 talen uitlegde, was het soms lastig te volgen. Helaas vertrokken wij een uur later dan gepland, hierover had een betere communicatie kunnen plaatsvinden. Voor mensen met wagenziekte zou ik de reis niet aanbevelen. Wij vonden het een erg geslaagde excursie en zouden deze zeker aanraden!

Mount Etna tour from Taormina

Mount Etna is the highest active volcano in Europe and a true icon of Sicily. This is your chance to venture either 1,900 or 2,900 metres above sea level to check out the lunar-like landscapes of the volcano's craters. You'll be driven from Taormina to Rifugio Sapienza, where – if you've chosen to go up to 2,900 metres – you'll switch to a cable car and 4x4 vehicle to reach the main crater for a guided walk and some epic views. If you opt to stay at 1,900 metres, there's free time to explore the nature trails around the Silvestri Craters, along with souvenir shops, cafés and a small museum that tells the story of the mountain's past. Either way, you'll want your camera for this one.

Guidad rundtur om maffiamotståndet i Corleone med lunch

Guidad rundtur om maffiamotståndet i Corleone med lunch

Corleone var en gång en stad som var ökänd för sina maffiaförbindelser, men idag är den en symbol för motstånd och rättvisa. Den panoramiska bilresan genom bergen sätter scenen för en upplysande dag. Vincenzo, en av våra erfarna lokala guider, säger: ”Denna fascinerande och insiktsfulla tur är utformad för att utbilda och avslöja Hollywoods glamorösa skildring av maffialivet och istället erbjuda en genuin inblick i den modiga kampen mot organiserad brottslighet. Detta är en viktig tur för vår stad. "Först ut är The Godfather's House Museum, en storslagen 1800-talsresidens som tar dig med på en resa genom tiden och utforskar både maffians och antimaffiarörelsens födelse. Därefter fördjupar du dig i denna komplexa historia på CIDMA Antimafia Museum, som rymmer en omfattande samling dokument och utställningar som skildrar det mörka förflutna och det modiga motståndet mot maffian.Efter en rundtur till fots i Corleones historiska gator tas du till en lokal restaurang nära det kungliga palatset i Ficuzza för en klassisk italiensk lunch, omgiven av naturskönhet. Slutligen kan du luta dig tillbaka och koppla av på resan tillbaka till Cefalù, med en djupare förståelse för Corleones förvandling från en maffiafästning till en plats som lokalbefolkningen är stolta över att kalla sitt hem, en plats med en framtid fri från organiserad brottslighet.
