It was a very scenic and fun trip.
The guide Sebastiano speaks a lot of different languages and has a great sense of humor.
Remember sunglasses and a dust mask, a trip like this gets very dusty!

It was an unforgettable tour. It wasn't just about riding the ATV quad, but also about the opportunity to learn a lot about the history of Etna. Egle took us to interesting lava caves and impressed us with her excellent expertise. Her English skills are exceptionally professional. The highlight of the tour was arriving at an altitude of 2,000 meters, where you could see the craters and hike on them. There was enough time to explore all the interesting hotspots during the breaks. Yes, it is a hard tour, but Egle adapted her speed to the group and looked after each individual driver with care. I have an ATV quad myself, am a frequent traveler and have been on many quad tours around the world, but I have never experienced such professional organization. Egle and Sebastiano: Thank you very much for this tour. I immediately booked the next tour with you the next day. And this tour was the same positive experience.

Wow!!! What an experience, as its non-peak time it was only me and my partner on the excursion today, but it made it such a great experience. Dominic was so informative, friendly and his english was fantastic. Me and my partner have been on many excursions all over the world and this was one of our favourites. Will definitely return in the summer so we can go closer to the summit but Dominic made the experience for us.

Bevor ich anfange Kritik zu üben möchte ich bemerken, die Veranstalter sind bemüht und für das Wetter sind sie nicht verantwortlich!!!
Ein Etna Besuch per Quad, wir erwarteten ein kleines Abenteuer. Leider war das einzig wirklich abenteuerliche die Strecke und deren Zustand. Wir sind schon viel Quad gefahren, große Dschungel Touren in Costa Rica und so, aber das hier hatte nichts mit Spaß zu tun. Spaß beginnt auch mit einer Portion Vertrauen den Teilnehmern gegenüber. Wir und auch die 2 anderen Teilnehmer wurden permanent gemaßregelt… zur Bemerkung, wir sind 57 und 58 und hatten unseren 9 jährigen Enkel mit. Was macht man da gefährliches???
Gesehen haben wir auch nix und den Besuch (5 Minuten nach Start) im Weingut hätten wir lieber weggelassen. Schließlich wollten wir vom Vulkan was sehen. Gekauft haben wir trotzdem und das Marketing Modell hat wieder einmal Erfolg gehabt 😉
Alles in allem, zu wenig Event für viel Geld und dann im dunklen zurück.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen Katrin
