Description

At the designated time, we'll meet at Piazza dei Martiri. Here, we'll board a 4x4 and depart from Catania towards Etna National Park.

Using less traveled paths in the park, we will share information about the history, culture, and traditions related to one of the most famous volcanoes in Italy. You will learn about the area's flora and fauna, and the changing landscape due to Etna's eruptions.

After the initial segment of the 4x4 tour, we'll stop in the town of Milo, the highest town in the park. From here, you will see views of the Ionic Sea, Taormina, and the volcano's crater. Please bring your camera.

Next, we will proceed to Monti Sartorius, consisting of 7 inactive craters formed in the 1865 eruption. The area is surrounded by white birch trees, recognized as one of the main natural points of interest in Sicily.

After a brief stop at a mountain refuge, we will engage in a unique activity by entering Thieve's Cave, a small lava tunnel from Prehistory.

To conclude, we'll return to the 4x4 and travel to Zafferana Etnea, where we will sample Sicilian delicacies, including honey, wine, and various liquors.

The tour will finish by returning to Catania after 4.5 hours.
