Experience the thrill of Catania’s volcanic wonders under clear skies this weekend. With perfect weather for exploration, dive into the heart of Mount Etna and savor the local flavors, all while basking in the sun’s warm embrace.

Embrace the Volcanic Majesty

Catania, Sicily, is a city that pulses with the raw energy of its volcanic heart, Mount Etna. As the sun rises on June 7th, the clear skies and mild winds set the stage for an unforgettable adventure. Begin your day with the Etna Morning Discovery tour, a half-day exploration that promises to ignite your senses. From 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, you’ll traverse ancient craters and trek scenic routes, all while surrounded by the breathtaking volcanic landscape. The journey starts with a visit to a lava flow cave, where you’ll don helmets and torches to uncover the mysteries beneath the earth’s surface. As you ascend to the Silvestri Craters, formed by the 1892 eruption, the panoramic views will leave you in awe. The trek, guided by a multilingual naturalistic expert, is a heart-pounding experience that combines the thrill of exploration with the serenity of nature. Conclude your morning with a traditional Sicilian lunch, savoring the flavors and wine history of the Etna region. As one reviewer noted on 2025-04-21, > Exceptional - Chosen by chance, very helpful immediately, with the south Damiano in the office in Catania and then via wapp contact. Giuseppe guide, super precise punctual, attention to detail, from calling in the morning of the visit, to keeping parking free, and discreet. Very prepared calm and helpful. Super hike, walking, a bit of sloping but doable. Light lunch, super.!!!!!! Exciting cave visit. Not to be missed. All a 4 hours. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Sunset Splendor and Sweet Delights

As the afternoon sun begins its descent, the Sunset and Honey Tasting tour offers a perfect blend of adventure and indulgence. From 3:30 PM to 9:30 PM, embark on a journey to Zafferana Etnea, a town renowned for its honey production. Here, you’ll tour an organic farm and taste local delicacies, including honey, wine, and oil. The experience is a sensory delight, with the sweet aroma of honey mingling with the crisp mountain air. The tour continues with a panoramic excursion of the Valle del Bove, a vast basin on Mount Etna’s eastern side. As you explore this lunar landscape, the history of ancient explosive events unfolds before your eyes. The day culminates with the mesmerizing sight of the sun setting over Mount Etna, painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. A reviewer on 2025-05-02 shared, > Perfect excursion - Was a super experience, Orga. perfect, lots of info received and Kevin and his team took good care of us.
