Beschrijving
De Etna is de hoogste actieve vulkaan van Europa en hét symbool van Sicilië. Je trekt naar 2.900 meter boven de zeespiegel met de bus, een kabelbaan en minibus om de grootste krater van de berg te zien. En je ziet op deze dag ook een van de mooiste steden van Italië.
Taormina ligt bovenop een berg en kijkt uit over verschillende baaien. Het is een van de best bewaard gebleven historische plaatsen ter wereld. Nip van een cappuccino in de Piazza Nove Aprile, of struin langs de boetieks. Of bekijk de sterattractie van de stad: het Grieks-Romeinse theater. Je hebt alle tijd om te doen waar je zin in hebt in deze schitterende Italiaanse plaats.
En als je uitgekeken bent, gaan we naar de Etna, Europa's hoogste vulkaan. Je kunt met de bus niet helemaal naar de top op 3.330 meter hoogte, dus pak je de kabelbaan en een 4x4 voertuig om naar 2.900 meter boven de zeespiegel te gaan voor fantastische uitzichten bovenop deze historische plek.

Mount Etna Sunset Tour with Sicilian Dinner
Watching the sky light up with shades of orange and then burn out into darkness while standing atop a volcano is a special sensation. This drama-rich tour takes you to Mount Etna – a must-visit when in Sicily. You'll head to an altitude of almost 3,000 metres to catch the sunset and then relax over a traditional meal to round off your adventure. Ciccio, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘The volcano's name derives from the ancient Greek word “aitne”, meaning “I burn”. It's an appropriate name for Europe's most active volcano.' As part of a select group of no more than 25 guests, you'll go by minibus to Etna. As the terrain becomes rockier, we switch to a 4x4 vehicle. As we make our way to 2,900m above sea level – the highest point that's safely reachable – there'll be stops to take in the harsh, lunar landscape and the lava-smothered flanks of this towering mountain. Ciccio says, ‘You might wonder why so many people live on Etna's slopes. The answer is simple – volcanic soil is extremely fertile, and you'll see traditional crops like vines and citrus fruits, plus newcomers such as avocados and papaya growing here.'Make sure you're wearing comfortable walking shoes and warm layers – it gets cold at high altitude. After admiring the views from near the summit, an expert alpine guide will take you to a less exposed 2,500m, where you'll watch the sunset in a more comfortable location. Then on the way back, we'll stop at a chalet restaurant for a typical Sicilian dinner.
