See two of Sicily's star turns in just one trip – the spectacular Alcantara Gorge and Europe's largest active volcano, Mt Etna. On this full day excursion, you'll discover these two natural wonders – paddling in the water of the gorge and climbing up to a height of 1,900 metres on the famous mountain.

Your adventure starts with a drive to the Alcantara Gorge – an ancient canyon carved deep into the volcanic rock. You'll have free time to take in the natural beauty of the 50-metre-high black lava walls or paddle in its crystalline pools. Surrounded by lots of lush vegetation, it's an amazing spot.

After you've dried off, it's on to Mt Etna. The journey up the volcano will be by coach to the Sapienza refuge, 1,900 metres above sea level. Once there, you can admire the scenery or catch a cable car up to 2,900 metres for even better views.

Should have been made clear in your literature that this trip is essentially a coach trip to the Etna car park, with the possibility of adding on the cable car ride, and then additionally adding on a 4x4 ride plus walking guide.

Fantastic trip, very knowledgeable guide, friendly staff & people, excellent experience!

Guide and driver were excellent. Visit to gorge was very enjoyable. The main point to learn is that there are additional costs on this trip for the gorge and the full Mount Etna visit making it an expensive day out. Clients need to be told that sturdy footwear is essential. Good for geographical experience.

Trip was well organised but the Mount Etna operation is a little chaotic and as the excursion coach leaves Etna at 15:15 we did not have enough time to visit multiple craters and no time at all to view the dozens of shops etc

Everything was just fine. Thanks
