Good tour, guide came to pick us up from our hotel and spoke fluent English, itinerary as described on the site. The tasting was varied and enjoyable and the crater was magnificent. The tour car had broken down on the day we originally scheduled our tour which was disappointing as it disrupted our original trip plans but we were contacted with an offer to reschedule, so we went the following day.

A very nice adventure, on a volcano at an altitude of 2,000 m above sea level it is really windy, it is definitely appropriate to wear long trousers and a sweatshirt/jacket. Guide Dan very positive throughout the trip, I must admit that it was an amazing adventure on the volcano to see all these craters and volcanic rocks and solidified magma. The sunset itself was beautiful, the orange color of the sun, which was slowly hiding behind the horizon. The cave we visited was tiny but it's definitely a nice curiosity that it was created by the work of the volcano. I forgot to add that the refreshments were also a very nice experience on myetna experience. I recommend of course

Amazing experience! The tourist guide Giuseppe came to pick us up to our accommodation and we reached the Enoteca for the tasting and degustation of local products with Viviana, super expert and very nice girl ! We proceed exploring the volcano during the sunset and visited a cave created from the lava with Giuseppe, very well equipped and very informed. That was one of the best experience of my life !
