Itinerary

Quad tour program:

We recommend wearing sportswear appropriate for the season. Our expert guides will be waiting for you at the meeting point near the Alcantara Gorges. Before setting off at full speed on your quads, you’ll receive a short briefing on the route and will be shown how to safely ride your quads to make the most of this experience. Then, all that’s left to do is put on your helmet (provided) and the adventure begins.

The tour lasts approximately an hour and a half, and each quad driver can bring a passenger with them, who can share the driving duties if they wish. Please note that this activity is suitable for everyone, both experts and beginners. In addition to admiring the wild landscapes and small, characteristic villages along the way, you’ll take a break near the Alcantara Gorges to admire the beauty of the Alcantara River, cradled by dark basalt rocks.

In short: astride your roaring 4×4 quads, you’ll zoom at full speed along off-road trails, cross streams and small rivers, be totally immersed in wild nature, and admire some of the most beautiful views of Mount Etna and the medieval villages of the Alcantara Valley. If you want to experience something different and enjoy exciting, adrenaline-filled adventures, all you have to do is book!

Perfect day of exploring volcanoes and wines! If you’re looking to explore the volcanic wonders of Etna, look no further! Our trip to the craters and ice caves was absolutely top-notch. A huge shout-out to our guide, Gianni. Not only is he a walking encyclopedia of volcanic knowledge, but he also possesses the secret superpower of navigating those tiny, winding Sicilian roads with absolute ease. I’m pretty sure he could drive a tour bus through a needle’s eye! The day was capped off perfectly with some incredible wine tasting. If you want a mix of adventure, education, and delicious wine—all while feeling completely safe despite the road width—book this tour. Simply fantastic!"

Very informative tour and lots of lunch and wine Our guide Lucas was charming, informative and really interesting to listen to. We learnt so much about the volcano, its history, vegetation and geology, within a warm friendly group. We climbed up the lava flow to view craters and went down into a lava tube. Finally we had a wine tasting with very free flowing wine and a great lunch. A fantastic day - would highly recommend.

Great experience This tour beat expectations. The hike on the slopes of Etna was beautiful and informative - especially as we could hear the volcano erupting during the day (though no lava visible on the northern slopes). Our guide, Lucas, was knowledgeable and very personable, taking photos of all 3 couples at several scenic stops. The Gambino winery was also high quality - delicious wines and food, with generous pours and friendly service. Our tour was only 6 people in total. A great way to spend the day near Taormina.
