Enjoy an exceptional private tour of Catania to Mount Etna. Travel up the slopes of Mt. Etna, the largest active volcano in Europe, and stop to explore the Silvestri Craters formed by the 1892 eruption. These craters are no longer active, and the stark, barren atmosphere is an incredible contrast to the lush beauty of the Sicilan countryside. Book this private Sicily tour for breathtaking views atop a monumental volcano.
From the heights of Mt. Etna, you can look out over Italy’s countryside, across the Catania Gulf, over forests, orange groves, vineyards, and fields of sheep and cows below. The ash from the volcano has helped give Sicily incredibly fertile farmland.
After the volcano trek, you’ll sightsee in the city of Catania, traveling from Via Etnea to Villa Bellini and Piazza Stesicoro. Enjoy a stop at Piazza Duomo, the city’s main square. A symbolic landmark of the city is the Elephant Fountain. In the Piazza, you’ll find a scenic cathedral, the Church of Sant’Agata, and many small boutiques and shops with local souvenirs.
