Special Sicily 2020

Etna Excursion (photo credit: Xplore 4X4)

Mount Etna

When someone asks us advice on what to do in Sicily, one of the most common questions is definitely about her: Her Majesty Etna and the excursions we can suggest. Exploring Etna is - without any doubt - a must-do especially for those who are eager to discover unknown itineraries in the wild a a volcano recognized by the UNESCO as world heritage.

One of the main reasons why Etna is one of the top choices is due to the fact that you will be climbing an active volcano, the most magnificent in Europe. Mount Etna, surrounding the entire city of Catania, appears like a big black cone visible from over 250 km away.

We strongly want to dispel the myth that Etna is doable only for those in love with it and that remains undoable to other. Just trust those who are professionals in this field to make your day on Mount Etna just unforgettable. For this reason, we asked the support to the best professionals in this field, XPLORE 4X4, a great team of people with whom we partnered up to offer you the best journey possible.
