<p>Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and the experience was breath taking. We were unprepared for how cold it was. Incredible photo opportunities. Our guide was welcoming and made the trip enjoyable with small talk and tips on where to eat locally. For the price it was an unforgettable experience.</p>

<p>Great day biking around Etna! The trails are fun and challenging for people of all skill levels, but best enjoyed if you are athletic and have previously done a decent amount of mountain biking. The guide works with the group and puts together a route that will be enjoyed by all. You should bring lots of water tons of water! and snacks.</p>
