Nous avons eu le plaisir de prendre part à l’excursion « Sunset » avec notre guide Claudio. L’expérience était incroyable et très enrichissante. Claudio est un guide au top avec beaucoup d’humour et de très bonnes connaissances sur l’Etna. L’ascension était assez simple et accessible à tous. Encore merci à Claudio ! :)

Iorga was a really great guide, he made us feel very comfortable and relaxed. He was informative without lecturing us. Etna released a large ash cloud whilst we were on our tour which made the whole experience quite exceptional. I would definitely recommend this tour and Iorga as a guide.
