“This was the best experience in Sicily we had. The road to the mount was good, accompanied by the history of Sicily and Etna, not boring at all! Upon arrival, we were given three options: 1. Go with cable car + bus + waking to the height of 2940m to see one of the craters (about 80€ per person) 2. Have a tour on Quad ATVs with a visit to a lava cave (50-70€ per person) 3.

“The term "tour" should be removed from the title - there was no tour. The driver was on time and did a great job getting us to Mt. Etna and the winery. So if you just need a driver this would be perfect (pricey - but good). The winery is a beautiful place/location - just incredible. However, the biggest challenge was that the driver spoke almost no English, which made things a little difficult and he couldn't share any information about what we were seeing as we drove to Mt. Etna or the winery, etc. The description also mentioned that we would be visiting a honey farm and that didn't…”
